OVERVIEW

Description

Our idea came from the thought that being aware of the problem is part of the solution.

Especially if this happens when people purchase.

So we create a special billboard in-store that makes people aware of how really white their smile is, generating a special discount to help them to get to the perfect smile’s white.

Execution

First, we developed a special software able to use the Ipad’s face detector in an outstanding way. Indeed the software is able both to detect a person’s smile and to analyse the pixels of the teeth. Thanks to an algorithm, it can find out the number, which indicates the average of the smile’s white. Through it, it can be possible to calculate the percentage needed to reach a 100% white smile and it converts this percentage into an analogues discount for the purchase of a Listerine Advanced White pack. Thanks to 3G technology, The Smile Converter sends the discounts, with the unique barcode, directly to users’ mobiles.The consumer can use it, right at the moment of the purchase,directly at the counter. We installed the special billboard in 100 stores.

Outcome

In one month we made 115.327 people smile, getting a huge lead generation.

78 % of those smiles were converted into a purchase.

More than 89.955 sales in just one month, reaching 92% of THE market share during the promotion
