Tough Mudder Valentine’s Day
The Post
The Valentine’s post should align itself with one or more of the mutual traits described above, while staying
consistent with the Tough Mudder voice. Tough Mudder has a history of inspiring, intimidating,
hoo-rah posts with the occasional tongue-in-cheek twist (see “dong dangler”).
Social media posts catch attention when the content doesn’t match the copy, but the relationship between
the two is still unmistakable. Tough Mudder content with Valentine’s Day copy make for a potent mixture.
The Photo
For some, Valentine’s Day is a two-person event: you and the person you care most about.
For others, it’s an excuse to damn their ex’s and go out with friends.
Either direction Tough Mudder takes with the photo works, as long as the copy matches it.
The Copy
Valentine’s Day offers dozens of taglines and catchphrases that juxtapose well with the Tough Mudder
brand. The copy should be sentimental, yet active and relevant to the outrageous nature of Tough Mudder.
