Intimate hygiene a taboo? Saforelle believes it shouldn’t be. No matter how private your parts may be, keeping them clean is just as normal – and natural – as brushing your teeth or washing your hair. And at The Other Agency we couldn’t agree more. That is why we developed a no-nonsense, bare-bones campaign to promote the n°1 intimate wash recommended by gynaecologists.
When it comes to the puss, let’s stop making a fuss. Instead let’s lift the taboo on intimate care and talk openly, instead of using cringy euphemisms. With our campaign ‘Take care of Elle’ we did just that, communicating that a vagina is an essential part of a woman’s body, just like any other. And that Saforelle wash solution is a natural part of your daily routine. To support the line, our visual was just as no-nonsense. We consciously avoided images of women in bright white knickers, frolicking through flowering fields. Instead, we showed reality ‘as is’ with a person in the shower, washing her vagina. No more, no less and no euphemisms in sight. Next to this, we used the campaign for educational purposes, teaching women a simple, three-step routine to keep themselves fresh and healthy.
Our multi-layered message kicked off with a full-page ad in the newspaper, followed by half-page reminder ads, a week and two weeks in. In addition, we developed a video that illustrated both product and wash routine. It ran digitally across social media platforms and was also used for a tv commercial so we could bring Saforelle to the audience’s living rooms. As it was instrumental to actually also have them try both product and routine, we distributed samples at the Flair fair. An additional influencer campaign strengthened the brand awareness through real-life testimonials.
The whole campaign ran for 3 years, with regular reminders on all different media channels. And the results showed that being transparent and open paid off: while their main competitors’ sales dropped by 8% on average, Saforelle sales saw a 6% increase.
Drop us a line or give us a call, we are looking forward to meeting you.
