What was the Challenge / Background of the Campaign?
LG mobile tasked Hotcow with helping them launch the world's first 3D smartphone: 'LG Optimus 3D'. The phone offered a playful, personal, immersive experience without 3D glasses underpinned by dual core and dual channel processes; with the core benefits being 3D movies, 3D gaming and 3D photo/video options.
The challenge was that the brand had low brand recognition in addition to launching a new category and product.
What was the Solution?
The solution was to activate live product demonstrations with a range of playful activities including; PR Stunt, Pop Up Experience Centre, Roadside Demonstration Vehicle and Street Demo Team.
The plan was to reach audiences at multiple touch points 'at work' and 'during leisure time' - spending quality time interacting with them to increase brand recognition and product understanding. The location plan focused on a 'cluster strategy' to enable the target audience to see the product multiple times during their daily lives and reinforce the brand and product features.
What were the Results?
3,243,000 people exposed to the brand and product.
192,948 people had a 1 to 1 immersive experience with the brand and product.
90% of consumers said they had little or no awareness of the handset before their LG Optimus experience.
63% left the experience with a preference to purchase.
Consumers spent total of 419, 650 minutes interacting with the phone.
Total cost per awareness - £0.34p
