• NBC Universal's USA
Network enlisted the help of
gamification startup San
Jose, Calif.-based Bunchball
in July 2010 to increase
engagement on the website
for Psych, one of its TV
shows.

• First, they launched a fan
loyalty program called
Club Psych that lets
users win weekly prizes
by completing different
challenges.

6. CLUBPSYCHE
• To enhance Club Psych, USA
launched Psych Vision, a mobile
app that let users access
behind-the-scenes videos, play
trivia games to earn points and
unlock prizes, and chat with
other fans, all while watching
the show.

7. CLUBPSYCHE
• With this tie-in, USA became
one of the first marketers to
offer a complete second
screen experience, where
fans could experience Psych
on their TVs, as well as via
mobile.

9. CLUBPSYCHE
• After seeing a 130 percent jump
in page views and a 40 percent
increase in return visits to the
Psych website with the Club
Psych integration, USA decided
to expand and created a social
media mystery game called
#HashTagKiller.

10. CLUBPSYCHE
• It engages fans with puzzles,
clues and Facebook chats with
the show's actors. Jesse Redniss,
senior vice president of digital,
says #HashTagKiller has driven
more than 95 million page views
from 300,000 unique users since
its launch in September 2011.

11. CLUBPSYCHE
• A gamified social
experience such as Club
Psych can turn engaged
fans into valuable brand
ambassadors.

13. CLUBPSYCHE
• Redniss notes that,
"288,000 shares on
Facebook's platform have
provided us with over 38
million exposures of the
'Psych' brand to our users'
friends and families.

14. CLUBPSYCHE
• "To reward those
ambassadors, USA Network
has given away prizes such
as Nintendo Wii systems,
Psych DVDs and character
bobbleheads.
