Description:
You have been hired to assist the Marketing Director of a brand you love. The Marketing Director has asked you to pitch a brand experience that will excite and engage the primary consumer. They have asked you to challenge expectations of the consumer for the category and include the following in your pitch.
1. Overview – Brief overview of the brand including; brand history, products/services sold, key brand elements, consumer proposition, a simple primary consumer pen profile and 1 example of a recent campaign.
2. Pain points and joy points – Identify 3 consumer pain points and 3 consumer joys you will address in your brand experience. Pain points might be obvious e.g. waiting in a queue or might be subtle e.g. buying clothing online and not being able to test the fabric quality.
3. Brand experience campaign – Design a brand experience campaign that will excite and engage. Include the following and remember this is one campaign with the following components.
a. Overview of story and strategy – Develop a brand experience focused strategy that will address 1 pain point and improve 1 joy experience. Summarise this strategy into a story title (3-4 words) and briefly explain. E.g. ‘Gucci Flower Garden’ to promote Bloom Perfume
b. A campaign – Interpret your strategy into a tagline and an example of creative to be used across 2 types of media e.g. website and bus poster that explains the offer to the consumer e.g. ‘Red Bull Gives You Wings’ as a tag line and creative concept for their online channel and bus sides.
c. A product touchpoint – design a product that will enable consumers to interact with your campaign (experience your message). You are encouraged to think innovatively and take inspiration from best practice case studies discussed in class. Your product should be visualised and connect to a digital element. E.g. Penny the Pirate for OPSM to improve the experience for child sight assessment or Coca Cola friendship vending machines. NOTE. This is not a new product
line pitch, the product is to help consumers touch and experience your brand message.
d. A physical environment – design an in-store or event experience that will help to launch your campaign and consumer interaction idea. This physical experience can be a new retail store, a pop-up retail store or an event. Your designs should be visualised. E.g. Nike & Jordan Basketball Experience Store or Marks Work Wearhouse Freezer Tester in-store to test snow gear.
