“Ariel was falling behind in the last few years. They were in a tight competition with another brand who was saying ‘Dirt is good’. They dominated the detergent space. We had to find an idea that repositioned Ariel. We discussed many options, it really was a process of elimination. There were five different ideas at the table. We wanted to find love for the brand from a social angle. Put an issue at the centre and make the world slightly better.”

“We used 3 channels: to start off, we had a YouTube video, which was later used as a TV Ad and as an Out of Home (OOH) media addition (played at malls and movie theatres). It was an open- ended film with a single important question: Is laundry only the woman’s job?”

“In this case, the brand was not taking a stand, Ariel was asking a
there and it became a news topic. It went onto social media. Once celebrities got involved, we held a special PR news conference. Ariel launched its new packaging, which separated “his and hers”
the wash care labels. The topic was kept alive. We were constantly creating news.”

“People fell in love with the idea and once this happens, they become more open to partnerships. It made them look good. The fashion labels agreed to incorporate the change. This is something P&G personally negotiated therefore; I’m not sure what were the exact terms of agreement. Some of the washing machine brands joined us as well. Everyone wanted to get involved. It might sound overly progressive but the aim was to get consumers to a better place. It was a win-win situation for everybody.”

“If you look at advertising the way it was done before – it was not particularly consumer-friendly. Brands were communicating their point-of-view. They were trying to announce product features in an interesting way. Now it’s about two-way brand building, being open to a conversation and keeping the consumer in mind. Creating love for the brand. We are no longer looking at mere slogans. The brand has to offer a platform for engagement.”
47

“If the conversation starts to slip into negativity, find a way to bring back the positive side of it. It’s almost like alert marketing. You’re constantly monitoring the movement and the way consumers are engaging with it. The brand becomes humane and authentic. The walls between the consumer and the brand disappear. To be honest, for a marketer it’s quite tiring, but without doubt - very rewarding.”

“If you really want to start a movement, you have to listen to the society and what is the underlying conversation, which has yet to be vocalised. Something that people aren’t talking about upfront. Our question was very provocative. The public was really interested in this topic and started to question why none of the other brands had faced the issue before.”
