The skincare market has communication platforms built around their product claims. Their ever-growing of “if you care, then, here something you should know of, for adding towards your skin care routine” has continued to work but also rounded itself in a loop to dig up more news from the product itself. With commercial objectives as both growing current portfolio (grow 108%) and venture into new oily/acne territory with no new product claims (contribute to 27% of total new sale), the new campaign of Kiehl’s (August 20th till October 31st, 2020) laid out communication tasks as riding on global sensation of “Kiehl’s loves” in order to build up brand relevance on digital landscape to diversify the talk about their top products as well as maximizing the sale on new channels (social and e-commerce) & recruit new customer.
In order to address the communication tasks, the built-up strategy was to Drive Brand Relevance with Diversified Social Touchpoints & Cultural Resonance. From the data point of Global Web Index Q2 2020, with a target audience ranging from 25-35, Income level AA+, 5 key cities of Vietnam, Facebook and its ecosystem were well-matched to build up the new social architecture. Facebook acts as the main hub for traffic, interaction and engagement in order to drive social commerce; Instagram acts as a resonated platform ad organic traffic; Community Management leverages on built-in “Kiehl’s loves Vietnam” emojis to showcase a consistency in mood & tone; Social Outreach resonates on related communities/ fan pages/ influencers.
The chosen culture piece for adapting the global “Kiehl’s loves” campaign was “Kieu’s tale” - the standardized literature which has been praised as the exemplary for all other literature to come afterwards. Listed activities as follow: +, Launched the hero video to announce the global sensation has come to Vietnam (with Signature Jingle that mixes between genres of Rock & Traditional instrument of VN …) +, Community Management with “Kiehl’s loves” Emojies in places SoCom & E-Com posts with CTAs to drive Conversational Commerce & start building Facebook as the main hub for SoCom, Interaction, Engagement and Information +, Instagram to follow with sharing key posts from Facebook +, Launched Kiehl’s tale +, Launched Kiehl’s dictionary +, Social outreach to amplify campaign message on communities/ fanpage/ influencers +, Engaging activities to drive Online to Offline: using FB AR technology allowed users to pronounce brand name correctly.
