'Stylish Disinfecting'




Clorox has added some pizzazz to its Disinfecting Wipes by packaging them in decorative canisters that are meant to look more like an accessory than a cleaning product. The canisters are now appearing in Macy's window displays in major metropolitan cities, including New York, Chicago and San Francisco. It's all part of the company's strategy to promote "stylish disinfecting." The new wipes collection, which sports floral and nature-themed designs, is being featured on Macy’s TV screens and samples are available at information booths inside the stores. Brandweek interviewed Lisa Partnoy, marketing manager for Clorox Disinfecting Wipes, who discussed how the brand is leveraging unconventional shopper marketing tactics to draw awareness to its new collection.

Is Twitter a free marketing channel?


A slightly diffrent approach for communicating in social networks: instead of grab its target attention via free love and after that communicating with them, Dell raised followers on Twitter and after that thanked them by offering discounts. Is Twitter a free marketing channel? That's how it looks:
"Dell’s Twitter experiment seems to be working. After making $1 million during the holidays by alerting Twitter followers to sale items, Dell is now offering discounts exclusively to the 11,844 people who follow @DellOutlet. For instance, here is a Tweet with a link to a 30-percent-off deal on an XPS laptop. When you click on the link, it takes you to this product page on Dell.com."

Gifting in on line social networks

On line social networking connection became so tied that people are willing to give presents to their virtual friends. This is a good chance for brands to exploit this opportunity and unobtrusively enter in the advertising forbidden world. Two examples of brands which already speculated this breach are:

1. Heineken using GetThemIn, which allows UK Facebook users to send each other real alcoholic beverages.

2. Paramount Pictures at "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" launch giving Facebook users a chance to send their friends a small digital version of Indy's iconic brown hat as a "virtual gift." The Fedoras became available at 4:30am on Wednesday morning, the day before the movie hit theaters. By 3pm, all 250,000 had sold out. Each gift provided a link to the movie's Facebook page, where fans could find local showings, read other users' reviews, post messages, download widgets and other applications, and view stills from the film's production.
