To demonstrate the irresistibility of Pedigree DentaSTIX, we created SelfieSTIX. A specially designed phone accessory that attaches DentaSTIX to your phone, so you can capture the perfect dog selfie. The clip was supported by an integrated campaign that drove people to get their free SelfieSTIX with every purchase of Pedigree DentaSTIX. A unique app also complemented the clip, by letting people add fun filters to their dog selfies.
To demonstrate the irresistibility of Pedigree DentaSTIX, we created SelfieSTIX. A specially designed phone accessory that attaches DentaSTIX to your phone, so you can capture the perfect dog selfie. SelfieSTIX is designed to hold the unique shape of a DentaSTIX and clip onto any phone. If the dog snatches the treat, the clip stays attached to the phone so it doesn’t become a choking hazard. SelfieSTIX was supported by the SelfieSTIX app, which allowed people to add fun filters to their dog’s selfies before sharing them, and an integrated campaign which directed people to get their free clip with any DentaSTIX purchase through Shopify or in store.
SelfieSTIX not only encouraged people to share their perfect doggy pics, it also encouraged repeat purchase of Pedigree DentaSTIX. Across social platforms, the campaign had over 2.1 million interactions. The campaign achieved 3.5 million engagements, a 24% increase in sales and one quarter of the country’s dog owners redeemed SelfieSTIX. Acquisition cost was 12 times lower than industry standard.
All elements of the Pedigree SelfieSTIX relaunch campaign were designed to elicit a direct response. Traditional media asked people to click through to purchase DentaSTIX and get their free SelfieSTIX online, or in store. The SelfieSTIX clip and app drove repeat purchase of DentaSTIX and encouraged people to share their perfect dog selfies in social media with #PedigreeSelfieSTIX.
Pedigree DentaSTIX sat within the smaller ‘functional’ treating segment within a fast-growing care and treats category, but Pedigree wanted to relaunch DentaSTIX so it would cross over into ‘positive’ treating as well. By creating a direct campaign that had a strong presence in social media, we were able to give DentaSTIX social currency as a treat. Our audience were all dog owners, with a slightly younger skew, targeting those who were already in the habit of sharing pictures of their dogs. Traditional media asked people to click through to purchase DentaSTIX and get their free SelfieSTIX online, or in store. The SelfieSTIX clip and app drove repeat purchase of DentaSTIX and encouraged people to share their perfect dog selfies in social media with #PedigreeSelfieSTIX.
