SUMMARY
This is a case of brand marketing’s perennial ‘future-proofing’ challenge - to grow today while investing in forward-facing equity to secure future growth.
The story of how the #SeeWhatHappens campaign helped Pond’s supercharge growth amongst young Indian women, to make up for lacklustre momentum amongst the fast-ageing talc and cold cream franchises; the brand’s reliable legacy for decades.
By identifying a highly personal insight, it helped Pond's cut through the sea of ‘femvertising’ sameness, connecting with the future-critical generation, to increase favorability, relevance with 4x increase in sales value.
