Lucky Energy Partners with NextMe to Increase Brand Exposure at the WM Phoenix Open

Lucky Energy, a premium beverage brand known for its clean and powerful energy drinks, needed a way to manage long lines of eager fans at WM Phoenix Open – a professional golf tournament on the PGA Tour.

The Challenge

Attendees were excited to experience an Aura Reader activation, but standing in a long, unmanaged queue risked frustrating guests and reducing engagement. Lucky Energy wanted to maximize interactions with attendees, distribute drink samples, and ensure a seamless, enjoyable experience. Without an efficient waitlist solution, they faced:

Lost engagement opportunities due to long, unmanaged lines.
Unclear wait times, leading to drop-offs and guest frustration.
Limited brand interaction, reducing the chance to convert attendees into long-term fans.
