Henry
The Challenge
The team explored various avenues to launch Henry Quick, however together with the client, decided that a sustainable, cost-effective and tried and tested approach of gifting Henry Quick to key editors and influencers along with the press kit would be the most effective route to market.
In an ever growing and saturated market the main challenge was to excite press for the launch of another cordless vacuum. We did this by building a campaign built on the key differentiators and benefits of Henry Quick that completely sets it apart from other cordless vacs.
It was key for the team to communicate Henry Quick’s unique benefits; including dust free emptying, lightweight design and a power cleaning boost mode for those tougher clean ups.
Whilst another key element of the campaign was communicating the heritage, reliability and durability of the brand that is utterly unrivalled.
The Solution
We built anticipation and excitement around the launch by teasing press with snippets of information about Henry Quick in the run up to its launch to market. Whilst also reminding them of key messages such as Henry’s heritage, reliability and durability.
We had a two phased approach, firstly launching to key editors in the summer ahead of launch so they could meticulously test Henry Quick. We then gifted Henry Quick to a select list of cleaning influencers right before the product went to market with some fantastic branded merchandise and press materials. A very important part of the campaign was encouraging press and influencers to test Henry Quick, including the Good Housekeeping Institute which has given their seal of approval to Henry Quick and subsequently featured it in print and online numerous times.
