Special delivery…Swedish Fish?

This post written by Stephanie Fader, Marketing & PR Manager

As you probably know by now, it’s been an exciting week for Punchbowl. We announced that we reached 1 million registered users, we acquired the domain Punchbowl.com and will now be known as Punchbowl, and we added Michael Waxman-Lenz, the former GM of AmericanGreetings.com to our Board of Directors. You can read about our news on TechCrunch.

But that’s not all the excitement we’ve had this week at Punchbowl. As if things couldn’t get any better…earlier this week we had a visit from two representatives from Cadbury who walked into our office with a mysterious box. They explained to us that they were giving us an entire box of Swedish fish as some kind of promotion. They set the box down and walked out the door, without much more explanation as to what was going on. With excitement and curiosity, we opened the box and to our delight found hundreds of Swedish fish and a simple note that read: “These are Swedish fish. Please eat them.”

Naturally we are all wondering WHY? Is this part of some bigger marketing campaign? Will there be something else to follow? Regardless, thanks to Cadbury from the entire Punchbowl team. We love our Swedish fish!
