Russian Standard Vodka’s UK launch

Type: Promotional Marketing Client: Russian Standard Vodka
The Challenge

Become the brand of choice

The vodka market is competitive and dominated by one major player. RSV needed to be a real challenger brand to create an impact in the UK.

As a new brand in the UK market, Russian Standard Vodka’s launch needed to create noise. They enlisted the help of our brand marketing agency to create a consumer focused campaign, ready to disrupt the market place.

The Idea

Integrated through-the-line programme

"Meet the Russian Standard" campaign brought to life on-pack, on-trade and off-trade

Research suggested that young adults were looking for drinks that are authentic and add to their night out. Authenticity creates cool.

We developed a through the line programme centred on a competition to “Meet the Russian Standard.” This offered 150 x 24 hour VIP trips to Moscow to be won.

ON-TRADE: Glamorous sampling staff dressed as Cossack dancers travelled the country in an eye-catching branded vehicle. Consumers received a free RSV cocktail sample, merchandise and an augmented reality card and code for online competition entry.

OFF-TRADE: 250,000 bottle collars communicated the promotion on-pack, alongside a comprehensive sampling tour at top end grocers. An RSV mini bar was installed for tactical sampling in Selfridges & Harrods Department stores.

Macleans looked to leverage their sponsorship of ITV’s Dancing on Ice to increase awareness and sales amongst their key target audience of 35-55 year old women. The oral health care market is heavily price driven and brands need to be brought to life through integrated campaigns to cut through a noisy market. As one of the UK’s leading integrated marketing agency, our team helped to create a promotional competition that felt relevant and “winnable” to ensure the target consumer’s participation.

The Idea

"Aquafresh Amazing Mum's" Campaign

Through-the-line campaign including an on-pack promotion, shopper marketing, experiential and interactive microsite

Our team developed “Aquafresh Amazing Mums”, a through-the-line campaign which rewarded Mum for doing the best for her family. This comprised a highly incentivising on-pack offer, in-store amplification, an engaging experiential tour and an interactive microsite, all managed by our trade promotion agency.

On-pack : Win Mums Wish List offered £1 million worth of prizes chosen by Mums for Mums. These included free flights, spa breaks, shopping sprees, and cash for a cleaner for a year.

Experiential and Online: We designed a fully-branded walk-in video booth tour where kids were invited to record their personalised message telling us why their Mum was amazing. Content was uploaded to a microsite where users could vote for their favourite to win a £5,000 family holiday. The site also acted as the entry route for code entry to “Win Mums Wish List” on-pack.

Supported with high profile women’s magazine advertising and local breakfast radio phone-in promotions.
