Mission: ‣Engage and interact with W18-24 helping reestablish Kotex in a younger demo while increasing record sales.

Objectives:‣Promote brand awareness, product sampling, create local buzz and increase sales.

Solution:‣A 15 market national college tour engaging thousands of female college students

‣Integration of a mobile “green screen” studio for the production of localized content.

‣In addition to social media, the content was leveraged to created high-quality local :30 commercial spots, POP & outdoor media placements.

‣Within 7 days of each tour stop, we deployed custom local commercials and outdoor billboards, featuring tour participants -- via web, broadcast, spot cable, movie theaters, POP Displays, and other media outlets.

Results:

‣Over 8 million views generating over 25,000 viral video “forwards” per campus stop.

‣The 15 localized spots cost drastically less than typical commercial spots, yet engaged consumers more directly and maintained the high gloss sensibilities of the brand.

‣The promotion sold 1 years worth of product in under 4 months.
