Description

As the top brand in the wet shaving market, Schick was looking for a solution to further expand its share against dry shaving market, which is always advertising aggressively.

Execution

As a solution to both prevent using electrical devices and encourage using razors, we invented a holder that reminds people not to use electricity by blocking the outlet and provides a place to hang a razor at the same time. In consideration of safety, the holder is attached to the outlet by a suction cup. To spread our effort, we created a unique ambient which combines a holder and a razor together and jacked the outlets in bars and public bathrooms. The shaver and holder were sold together in promotional packs and strategically located alongside electric shavers in electronics stores.
