Get Inspired by TAZO’s ‘Routine Reboot’ Social Marketing Campaign

TAZO tea launched a week-long marketing campaign in August called "Routine Reboot" – a call to action for people to explore new routines to gain new perspectives. The brand teamed up with acress Maitreyi Ramakrishnan – star of the hit Netflix series “Never Have I Ever” – to inspire fans to try on and experiment with new habits and routines out of their existing day-to-day.

"My routine has been completely turned upside down in 2020 and adjusting hasn't always been easy," said Ramakrishnan. "I'm excited to partner with TAZO to share ‘Routine Reboot' week with my fans!”

Ramakrishnan hosted TAZO’s “Routine Reboot, which explored the routines of a multifaceted group of artists, athletes, parenting experts and entrepreneurs – inspiring fans to try on new routines of their own. The campaign took place Aug. 17-21 (#TAZORoutineReboot).

TAZO said that as fans explored new routines during the promotional effort, its new Energize and Dream teas could help manage energy levels from sunrise to sunset. “These blends are made with ingredients like revitalizing guarana to help jumpstart their day, and calming valerian root to restore and do it all over again tomorrow,” TAZO said in a statement.

We're excited to introduce TAZO's new blends, Energize and Dream, to help fuel this exploration, and provide fans with the balanced energy they need throughout the day to enable them to explore new routines outside of the expected.”
