Brief Explanation

The challenge: Launch Rexona Naturals and establish its close ties with nature, even though deodorants are famous for unnatural chemicals. We injected nature into an equally unnatural space: the internet. Nurture Nature is the first Facebook application to let users grow real plants via computer, without simulation/pre-recorded videos. Users could click actions like “water”, “fertilize”, “play music”, and the live, real-time feed would show a gardener executing the commands. In one month, the app was viewed 687 hours, an equivalent of 15s TVC being viewed 164,880x. By getting blogged and tweeted about, even internationally, it generated earned media worth USD57,000.
