BriefExplanation
The challenge:
Around 100,000 new releases enter the German-speaking book market every year, each fighting for reader preference. The aim was to draw the attention of the target group precisely to this one new book.
ClientBriefOrObjective
Poster campaign for the book „How to be a mother“,
designed by Laura (2), Luca (3), Anna (3), Sara (3) and Noah (4).
The brief:
Publicity for the new book “How to be a mother” by Swiss author Michèle Roten. The target group is women who are considering becoming mothers and who want to know the truth.
Implementation
The solution:
We gave freshly printed books to a group of small children and left them alone with it. They let their creativity run riot with Neocolor crayons, fingerpaints, glue and ice cream. This way, the book cover itself shows how rich and colourful life with children can be – but also how exhausting.
Outcome
The result:
The campaign stood out amid otherwise rather sober book campaigns such as a screaming three-year-old in a silent reading room. Magazines and newspapers reported on it and multiplied the advertising effect. “How to be a mother” became a bestseller. The first edition sold out quickly.
