Explain why the method of promotion was most relevant to the product or service

The campaign was aimed to activate a new attitude of children (3-8 y.o.) by interacting with them using promo tools specially tailored by brand to meet the occasion specific and to provoke their immediate response.

The generation of parents who remember Soviet times and Perestroika were very much deprived. And now they literally “shower” their kids with gifts trying to compensate their lack, especially in the New Year period, the most beloved by Russian children. Brands follow them giving numerous gift packs and offers. Barni wants to become a part of Near Year life for the new generation and understands that a regular present will not be a surprise to anyone. Barni decides to change the act of gift giving. Children are used to receiving them but every child needs giving presents as well. Barni’s New Year Workshop inspires children to create gifts and present them to their families.
