The WW ASOS Christmas campaign had to help deliver £XM UK sales (confidential) whilst deepening brand engagement with fashion-loving 20something girls and driving advocacy.
It also needed to launch the Christmas party wear collection and deliver promotional sales.
The campaign had to be content led – giving our audience music videos, celebrity interviews and advice, styling tips, games, competitions, apps and promotions that would help make their #BestNightEver. By creating content that inspired them, making them interact and share, we could deepen their engagement with the brand and increase their likelihood to shop with us.
It was crucial we listened to our audience and got the tone of our activity right, seeking to be as relevant, helpful, innovative and surprising as possible to ensure we felt like a credible part of their party preparation over the festive season and maintaining their interest throughout the 8 weeks.
Christmas success
