Trolli's Facebook Messenger Bot Is a Mobile Tamagotchi Made for Millennials

It rewards participation with candy

Is the future of marketing to teens automated? Today candy brand Trolli is launching a Facebook Messenger chatbot that it hopes will open up a new way to talk to millennials.

The chatbot is powered by Facebook Messenger and uses a series of interactive quizzes, GIFs and prizes to keep users playing with branded content. According to Rob Peichel, vp/group creative director at Trolli's agency Periscope, the idea is to gamify the conversations that teens are already having with their friends on messenger apps.
