 šŸ”„ A fiery new campaign with Snoop Dogg

Snoop Dogg is appearing in yet another campaign!

Firepits store, Solo Stove has teamed up with global icon Snoop Dogg for a worldwide marketing campaign across US, Canada, Australia, and Germany.

ā€˜Start the Fire’ campaign merges Snoop’s unmistakable laidback style with Solo Stove’s promise of warmth and connection, encouraging risky humor and social media takeovers. 

This is the second campaign with the rapper, after the previous ā€˜Snoop Goes Smokeless’ campaign drove increases of 500% in organic search.

Solo Stove lent a hand from 72andSunny to create their ā€˜Blunt Marketing’ assets which play every bit into the pun humor you’d imagine.
