Although Spontex has a dominant market position in France, in the UK it was a different story as the household cleaning category is dominated by own label products. The challenge for Spontex was to introduce the brand to a mass audience in an original and engaging way. It was vital that the campaign created high brand awareness so that when people were in the shopping aisle and looking for cleaning products, they thought of Spontex. They wanted to develop a standout personality for the brand through awareness of their hero character Hedgehog and to increase purchase intent.

To raise awareness and increase purchase intent as well as creating a brand personality.

The hedgehog character was introduced through sponsorship bumpers. The lovable hedgehog was seen engaging with numerous Spontex products as they moved down the supermarket conveyor belt-a great way of showcasing the variety of the range. The light-hearted and fun nature of the sponsorship credits were in keeping with the tone of the show. It also included views on Sky Go and Sky's on demand service Anytime. Spontex were able to maximise the association with the programme through a licensing deal with Sky. This deal included product placement, on-pack, online, social and PR.

Spontaneous brand awareness rose from 8% to 28% for those aware of the sponsorship. In 2011, Spontex were 8th in their category for spontaneous awareness but have jumped to 4th after Trollied Prompted awareness rose to 87%, significantly above sponsorship norms 11% were aware of the on-pack promotion or 21% for those aware of the sponsorship.
