Auspicious occasions call for great cigars, and my 10th wedding anniversary was no exception. I pulled out this gem that’s been resting in the humi for the last year or more. The Camacho 10th Anniversary Corojo was never about power, like Coyolar or SLR, but blending finesse. And, after extra time, the blend has gotten even smoother.

Branded Evolution and Camacho Cigars Team Up to Achieve Unprecedented Buzz in Cigar Industry Through Online Branded Entertainment Series and Social Media Campaign

Sixty-three Percent of Participants Watched Entire Four-Part Branded Entertainment Series

NEW YORK, May 6 /PRNewswire/ — Branded Evolution, a digital agency specializing in online branded entertainment, today announced “The Black Band Project,” an integrated marketing campaign launched with leading cigar manufacturer Camacho Cigars, exceeded its sign-up goals by more than 500 percent.

“For an industry that does not take well to technology, the campaign outperformed our most optimistic goals for traffic and conversion,” said Dylan Austin, Camacho’s director of marketing. “This success was due in large part to an engaging series of episodic content that drove 63 percent of initial viewers to watch the entire four-part web series.”

Camacho first conceived the concept for “The Black Band Project” in late 2008 and Branded Evolution was hired to develop, produce and distribute the online content. PlaceVine, a web-based brand integration service that connects marketers to top branded entertainment opportunities, facilitated the connection between the two companies.

For cigar aficionados, there’s no better online home than Social Cigar.

With red and tan colors and a brick background, the network gives off a Havana-inspired appearance. The gorgeous custom header instantly makes cigar smokers feel at home.
The Network Creator, propellorgianni, has done some custom development — easy to do with source code access — and added a very popular “Cigar Reviewsâ€? feature to his network. Members select their brand and their specific cigar and then add their review to the network for others to review as well. The Camacho – Triple Maduro is one of the most popular.

You’ll also find some other easy-to-add widgets on the main page of the network. Members can vote on “Where do you smoke your cigars� in the poll widget in the right column. Once they’ve done that, they can talk directly to other members through the Social Cigar Chat widget.

The network’s forum is even more active than the cigar reviews. The discussions have been divided into categories, such as “Non-Cuban Cigars� and “Cigar Industry News� and “Cigar Talk“. Few discussions in any category go very long without replies; more than 25 people have chimed in about “Social Cigar Wear“.

In an another interesting use of the forum, propellergianni has created a separate category for new members to introduce themselves. As a clear demonstration of the interest members place in the network, introductions regularly receive more than a dozen replies.

Members have also taken advantage of the built in photos and videos sections, where they’ve uploaded thousands of photos and nearly 500 videos. You’ll find everything from photos of stocked cigar boxes to Buddy, the cigar-loving cat.

So if you want to share insights on the tobacco world or join the Social Cigar trip to the Dominican Republic, head on over to Social Cigar.
