  • Andrex – experiential

    Andrex spent several years developing an Eco toilet tissue with softness worthy of the Andrex name (created using 90% recycled fibre and 10% sustainably sourced bamboo). We were asked to support the TV launch with an experiential campaign at shopping centres around the line ‘Get Bamboozling’, which encouraged shoppers to switch their usual roll over to Andrex Eco to see if their family noticed the difference.

    Results: during the campaign, 107,000 people engaged with the stand and 350,000 brand samples were distributed
  • Andrex – DM

    Research revealed that Gorgeous Comfort delivers a sensory experience with quilted pillows of softness. When we talked to people about ‘comfort’, they were very emotive – everyone had their own personal thing that was comforting to them.  This insight led to us to create a ‘Little Book of Comfort’, a DM piece that was not obviously marketing literature.

    Results: a response rate of 8% (4% over the industry average). 87,438 coupons were redeemed and base volume sales increased by 2.8% compared to the same period in 2010.
  • Andrex – digital

    Andrex Washlets – moistened toilet tissue – has always been a hard concept to talk to consumers about. How do you talk about wet loo roll being better than dry?

I came up with the logo idea for the Clean Campaign and wrote the digital content for the Facebook page.

    The third ad in the campaign was targeted at mobile home owners and appeared in caravan and mobile home magazines.
  • femfresh – experiential

    femfresh intimate wipes had been perceived as a product aimed at women with ‘problems’ rather than something to freshen up with every day. We were asked to create an experiential stand that would change attitudes to the category and the brand, introducing femfresh to a younger target audience.  My idea was to create clean and lovely ‘femfresh VIPee loos' at music festivals and this launched at the popular V Festival in August 2011.

    Results: Following the activity, over 80% strongly agreed that femfresh is an everyday product. Over 30,048 femfresh samples were distributed, 4,601 Vajazzle Kits were handed out, there were 9,360 loo visits. (Agency: smp)
