HP launches Social Campaign to #FindRalph

Cristina Blanaru Ads, Creativity

HP launches Social Campaign to #FindRalph, based around the “Lost Iguana” TV ad. When Kevin’s pet iguana Ralph goes missing , he doesn’t just put up fliers, he uses an entire ecosystem of HP products to set up his search operation and asks the Internet to get involved .


From the versatile Pavilion x360 to the speedy Office Jet Pro X, to HP’s patented Instant Ink service, Kevin uses the power of HP innovation and his imagination to bring Ralph home in this latest ad from 180LA.

The search to #FindRalph was kicked off by Viners Robby Ayala, Liane V, Anna Clendening, Cody Johns, and Rudy Mancuso.

The campaign continues on a dedicated website where anyone can check a map to see clues where Ralph has been, then follow HP on Twitter to guess his location and enter to win HP products.
