The Campaign
Hansaplast introduces Hearts. A new type of heart-shaped plasters, created to help parents heal those broken little hearts. To stop the tears, each Heart comes with a specific design that is linked to a heart-warming story. Allowing parents and children to start a conversation about the little heartache. All stories were developed with a child psychologist, covering the 5 most common little heartaches in the age group of 2 to 6 years old.
Creative Execution
Hansaplast Hearts is a premium giveaway. Each box contains 10 heart-shaped plasters with a total of 5 different designs, linking back to the 5 main little heartaches. The box also features a little book, containing 5 relevant heartwarming stories. Each plaster design links back to one of the relevant stories in the book, developed with a child psychologist. In april, thousands of Hearts boxes were distributed as a free promotional gift in Belgium’s biggest supermarkets Carrefour & Cora. Via a seeding strategy parents could also get their free box online: http://Littleheartaches.com
Results
Hansaplast Hearts is a European initiative that was first introduced in Belgium. Thousands of Hansaplast Hearts boxes were distributed as a free promotional gift in Belgian supermarkets Carrefour and Cora. Via social seeding parents could also order their free box on a microsite, www.hartepijntjes.be. The engagement of parents and children was immediate and extremely high. To get consumer feedback, all parents receiving a free box were subject of a follow-up survey. Response was over 40% and completely positive. Because of this result Hansaplast Hearts will be rolled-out in all Hansaplast key-markets later this year, in a long-term mission to add emotional value to the brand and create a new category for the brand.
Global adhesive bandage brand Hansaplast launched Hearts as a long term idea to conquer share of hearts and to emotionally bond with its main target: parents with young children. The Hearts-boxes were handed out for free as a promotional gift. But to extend the relationship all of them were followed up by a survey which generated a response of over 40%. This allowed Hansaplast to emotionally connect and keep mums & dads informed about other initiatives, in its mission to win the battle against private labels.
To win the battle against private labels Hansaplast could no longer limit itself to functional superiority. The brand also needed to conquer hearts and emotionally bond with its main targets: parents with small children (2-6 years old). Hearts is an idea that builds within the bigger Hansaplast global platform ‘helping to turn tears into smiles’.
