We set out to hack the thing Amazon holds most dear – their coveted and highly protected product review system.
The mayor of Kansas City (and an army of copywriters) purchased and wrote exhaustive reviews for 1,000 products from Amazon – but with a twist. Each review became an unexpected opportunity for the mayor to share an interesting stat or fact about his beloved city.
The reviews didn’t just stay on Amazon. They spread to social media and quickly became national and international news. All without a single dollar of paid media.
This sneaky, slightly ridiculous idea made Kansas City the most well-reviewed city on Amazon.
