(or between a agency with it’s creative team).
Good Brief?

  insight

  fashion	
  and	
  advertising	
  
has	
  restricted	
  the	
  definition	
  of	
  beauty
Insight: Women	
  are	
  critical	
  of	
  their	
  own	
  appearances
Branding On brief The simple	
  and	
  ambitious	
  brief	
  :	
  Make	
  women	
  feel	
  better	
  about	
  themselves.
The idea successful reach the brief by invoke the difference between what women
think of themselves and what other peolpe think about their apperance.
Instrinsically branded	
  at	
  the	
  core
Differentiate with competitors
Dove	
  aims	
  to	
  educate	
  and	
  inspire	
  women	
  to	
  accept	
  a	
  wider	
  definition	
   of	
  beauty	
  and	
  
to	
  celebrate	
  their	
  natural	
  beauty	
  be	
  comfortable	
  in	
  their	
  own	
  skin
while others focus on becoming more beautifful, which put pressure on women
mind
Communication Must be	
  together	
  with	
  right	
  execution Right execution:
The	
  participants	
  where	
  selected	
  through	
  a	
  normal	
  casting	
  session. Dove do not invite
any beautiful celebrities to join in their clip.
The twist moments can make audiences and participants burst into tears.
Delivery Release the	
  message,	
  and	
  speak	
  to	
  the	
  
product/	
   brand	
  truth
The message:Show the woman that they are more beautiful than they think
Can	
  lead	
  to	
  executions	
  in	
  many	
  media Channel: Viral clip, TVC which was spread out largely on media, social network
Delivers the	
  message	
  through	
  the	
  most	
  
appropriate	
   touch-­‐points
The	
  twist	
  moments	
  can	
  make	
  audiences	
  and	
  participants	
  burst	
  into	
  tear	
  
Starting a	
  conversation	
  in	
  media

  among	
  the	
  public	
  about	
  women	
  and	
  their	
  
perceptions	
   and	
  the	
  definition	
  of	
  beauty
Effectiveness Interesting and	
  fresh New definition of beauty: marketing	
  is	
  too	
  quick	
  to	
  blame consumer ‘s shortcomings	
  
to convince them buying products,	
  as	
  if	
  we	
  were	
  the	
  only	
  ones	
  out	
  there	
  who	
  don't	
  
fit	
  the	
  superwoman,	
  supermodel	
   mold. Dove	
  put	
  a	
  crack	
  in	
  that	
  veneer.
New type in personal	
  care	
  advertising: real experiment. The viral clip was made as
documentary film
https://www.youtube.com
/watch?v=litXW91UauE
The  creative  idea  is:  
prove they	
  are	
  wrong	
  
about	
  their	
  self-­‐image	
  by  
comparing  the  portrait  
based  on  their  percieve  
and  the  one  based  on

  that	
  you	
  can	
  
relate	
  to
Product  material-­ soy  seeds  link  
with  the  image  of  growing  up,  
turning  into  something  strong  and  
peaceful.
Being	
  the	
  same	
  shoes People  percieve  that  peace,which  
they  truly  hope  in  life, is  the  most  
important  thing.
Differentiate  to  competitors In  Tet  occasion,  while  other  brands  
focus  on  reunion  and  share  or  
traditional  values,  Vinasoy  choose  
“An  lành”  to  communicate.
Features Example

Airing  time:   the Olympics when the best of the best are celebrated and those who
come 4th are chastised.
Universal  Truth:  It is not just the championship athlete or record breaker that aspires
to push their limits. It is also the everyday athlete who strives to excel on their own
terms, to set and realize personal goals and achieve their own defining moment of
greatness
Insight:  I  m  not  a  championship  athlete  or  record  breaker  but  I  still  want  to  to  achieve  my  
own  goals.
5. Authentic
Showing real world situations, that people say that could
be me.
Example:
