The Campaign
You make your bed and lie in it. Yet, it would seem, that’s something seven million Germans are still not getting right. We tend to put sleeping problems down to a late coffee or full moon rather than addressing the true causes. But the answer is very close at hand—at IKEA. Rather than offering just a scant assortment, IKEA has the biggest sleeping department and it was our job to awaken people’s interest in it. The result? Not just a campaign but the IKEA great sleep.
The Brief
The goal? To enter into direct dialog with people, opening up as many tired eyes as possible. We set out to show them all the options IKEA offers to get a good night’s sleep.
Execution
Whether deep underground or high on a mountain peak, each found the perfect bed.
Overall this year we generated just under 18 million visitors to IKEA.de/bedroom, five billion media contacts, an 8% increase in sales—and, incidentally, led lots of people to the bed that’s right for them.
The Strategy
A TVC introduced the subject. Then we asked our users online how they sleep best. Four were selected—and put into beds customized down to the smallest pillow, located in pretty offbeat places.
