Creative Execution
The app was launched globally at the beginning of the Winter 13/14 skiing
season. Since this is a tool/service with the purpose of connecting the Helly
Hansen brand with skiing enthusiasts, it will remain available after the season.
The app got a lot of attention on Twitter and on skiing magazines and blogs.
And Helly Hansen could see a significant gain of visitors on their winter 13/14
website. They spent more time on the page than their average visitor, and a lot
of them proceeded to buy products in the online shop.
Describe how the mobile campaign/entry was launched and
implemented across each channel/platform.
Helly Hansen is one of the leading Scandinavian outdoor and skiing brands.
For the global launch of the winter 13 collection they wanted to do something
special. They know that the people who wear their gear are usually very
passionate about skiing and that nothing compares to fresh powder. So to help
them catch that perfect ride, and to create some buzz around the brand, we
created the app First Tracks an alarm clock that wakes you up earlier if it
snows during the night.
The app was promoted mainly through Helly Hansens own channels (web,
social media, retail) and with promotion towards skiing magazines and blogs.
