From baby soft to romance

Posted on by Cimigo

Brand marketing by life stage

Fabric softeners offer a great example of brand marketing by life stage. Brands seek to leverage the new baby as a key life changing moment impacting purchase priorities for Mums and simultaneously delivering the softness message. Downy Baby Gentle from Procter and Gamble Vietnam is a new variant launched in March 2016.

The new TV advertisement above has been accompanied by in store activities such as the baby race shown below.

P&G have sought to move beyond the new baby life stage into romance.  The reality is that most Vietnamese newly married couples conceive within six months of their wedding. Downy Romance seeks to preempt the baby and the competition from Unilever’s Comfort and win consumer hearts (literally) at an earlier life stage.

That said we do hope that not too many men sought to secure their lover’s heart with this gift on woman’s day.

More brands seek to involve their consumers with personalised packaging for viral marketing in Asia. For Vietnamese Woman’s Day on 8th March, Vaseline launched a campaign Only You, where consumers could add their photo to the Vaseline Healthy White Instant Fair variant.  Photos could be submitted online or taken at a Vaseline booth in shopping malls.

Personalised packaging for viral marketing

Personalised packaging plays to Asian consumers’ desire to share photos and new experiences on social media. Involving consumers in such a personal way is key to the success of many viral campaigns.

Coca-Cola Vietnam first personalised packaging on their Coke cans in mid 2014 with Vietnamese names to popular success and a strong viral marketing impact. The campaign evolved to adding emoticons in 2015. In Coke’s own words; leveraging  emoticons which are integral to youth’s social currency is a way to boost the brand’s relevance in this mobile and digital era, giving us a much richer ground to engage with our consumers.
