    "When we first started talking to agencies about creating an online casting competition for Benetton, Mint Digital immediately stood out from the crowd. Where others talked about technologies, Mint talked about communities and how best to create, grow and manage them. With Mint's experience of social media campaigns we designed and implemented an online fashion competition for Benetton which way exceeded our expectations in terms of reach and engagement."
