Description
Challenge: For us, It was a challenge to promote a small multi brand boutique of glasses as a unique boutique to Japanese society with a very low budget about ¥450,000.
Objective: Expand the name recognition of the boutique
Strategy: By producing, selling, promoting a new type of unique glasses having a typical purpose for use, it became an exclusive by itself. The product and the promotion video were picked up by some fashion websites, it lets people who are in the fashion industry, have interest in fashion, and know about "blinc vase".
Execution: The article about "Kiss Glasses" in fashion news website "Fashion Press" was re-tweeted 16,000 times in 2 days. Moreover, not only websites but also 6 TV programs such as NHK and Fuji TV etc. picked up the campaign in news programs. In Fuji's program, it said "Kiss glasses" became the No.1 word which was re-tweeted in a week. On YouTube, we uploaded the video. It has played for over 270,000 times without forced playing.The product has never been sold, but we accomplished our aim perfectly.
