BRONZE GLOBAL ADAPTATION<br />
Dove recruits Canadian hair stories<br />
Dove wanted to<br />
promote its new<br />
Nourishing Oil<br />
Care product line<br />
locally, but <strong>the</strong><br />
Unilever brand also<br />
wanted to support<br />
its international<br />
positioning of “Real<br />
Beauty by Real<br />
Women.”<br />
To accomplish<br />
both, partner<br />
agency Capital C<br />
shaped <strong>the</strong> global<br />
positioning to<br />
resonate with Canadian women. The brand<br />
first created mass market awareness by<br />
airing 15-second TV spots, 10-second<br />
closed-captioning creative, search, outof-home,<br />
print and editorial content. Dove<br />
also partnered with influential bloggers<br />
to create written content related to <strong>the</strong><br />
product and add credibility to <strong>the</strong> brand.<br />
Online, Canadian women were asked<br />
to post <strong>the</strong>ir “Hair Challenge” story and<br />
a photograph to <strong>the</strong> Dove Facebook page<br />
for <strong>the</strong> chance to win a hair session with<br />
Dove celebrity stylist Mark Townsend. To<br />
promote <strong>the</strong> contest, <strong>the</strong> brand partnered<br />
with morning talk show Breakfast<br />
Television, and <strong>the</strong> content generated by<br />
<strong>the</strong> hair challenge was used to create a<br />
series of “How-To” webisodes for <strong>the</strong> Dove<br />
Facebook page and YouTube channel.<br />
As a result, <strong>the</strong> campaign grew Dove’s<br />
Facebook page by over 20,000 fans<br />
and generated 4.3 million social media<br />
impressions overall – surpassing estimates<br />
by 400%. Dove’s share of voice rose 6.6%,<br />
<strong>the</strong> highest among Dove’s competitive set.<br />
And Dove’s Nourishing Hair Serum became<br />
<strong>the</strong> number one selling hair care product in<br />
sales volume for three months at Walmart.<br />

BRONZE TARGETING<br />
GoodNites tackles bedwetting<br />
GoodNites has<br />
a niche target<br />
demo – moms<br />
struggling to<br />
deal with <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
child wetting<br />
<strong>the</strong> bed<br />
after <strong>the</strong>y’ve<br />
stopped<br />
wearing<br />
diapers and<br />
training pants.<br />
Research<br />
shows that mo<strong>the</strong>rs are opposed to using<br />
disposable youth pants as <strong>the</strong>y feel it may<br />
be detrimental to a child’s self-esteem. This<br />
led <strong>the</strong> Kimberly-Clark brand to develop a<br />
Bed Mat that doesn’t confine a child and<br />
appeals to moms in its ease of being able<br />
to simply put down, pick up after a night of<br />
bedwetting, toss away and replace.<br />
It was also found that mom isn’t<br />
necessarily thinking about bedwetting<br />
when she’s getting ready for a routine<br />
shopping trip, or even when she’s at <strong>the</strong><br />
store. And because her child is older<br />
now, she rarely goes down <strong>the</strong> baby care<br />
aisle. Working with agency OgilvyAction,<br />
GoodNites introduced mom to <strong>the</strong> product<br />
where she is most likely to shop, placing<br />
clip strips in relevant Walmart aisles – such<br />
as laundry, toilet paper and snack – and<br />
inviting her to try <strong>the</strong> Bed Mats with <strong>the</strong><br />
promise of a better night.<br />
Also partnering with Shoppers, <strong>the</strong><br />
brand placed shelf signage, end-aisle<br />
displays and clip strips in stores, as well as<br />
sent out a Shoppers e-blast that introduced<br />
<strong>the</strong> product and enticed consumers to<br />
purchase by offering bonus Optimum<br />
points. The campaign was a success,<br />
driving incremental category growth for <strong>the</strong><br />
brand, gaining listings at key retailers and<br />
achieving share and volume targets.<br />
