Drumroll 🥁 please…. Without further ado your next Boolean Scenario: 

 

Each season Starbucks ☕️ comes out with a seasonal menu featuring new drinks. Below you will find the Boolean used to pull in news mentions of their “Winter Feels Menu”. Instead of creating a new search can you help the Starbucks marketing team adjust the current search to pull in mentions of their new spring menu

 

Current Season Boolean Search: 

((infotype:”news”) AND (Starbucks AND (“Winter Menu” OR “Winter Feels Menu”) 

 

What needs to be updated: 

  • The team would like to view social mentions in addition to news mentions. 
  • The new menu can be referred to as “Spring Menu” or “Cue Spring Mood”. 
  • The team is looking for prominent mentions of Starbucks. For example: 
    • Starbucks should be mentioned in the first paragraph
    • Starbucks should be mentioned within 10 words of the seasonal menu 
      ​​​​​

 

How would you update the boolean? Don’t forget you can utilize the resources in the Boolean Academy Wizards Group. Reply with your boolean string suggestion on this thread.

 

Note: I will share the recommended Boolean with you via Private Message after your entry. 


Who’s ready to compete? 💪
