Why is this work relevant for Social & Influencer?

The 'Finish TikTok' campaign epitomizes innovation in influencer marketing and social media utilization. By leveraging TikTok's growing platform, we engaged with a younger, tech-savvy demographic, pivotal for the dishwasher category. The campaign's core was a creative synergy between influencers and the product's unique selling point - superior grease removal. This approach, diverging from traditional marketing, demonstrated an acute understanding of the evolving digital landscape, making it a essential case for the Social & Influencer category. The strategy's success was marked by increased brand visibility and resonance with a key yet challenging market segment.

Cultural context played a central role in the 'Finish TikTok' campaign, tailored to resonate with the Middle Eastern audience's familial values and culinary habits. Recognizing the region's prevalent issue with grease in cooking and the importance of family gatherings, the campaign skillfully intertwined these cultural nuances with the product's strength in grease removal. Influencers, integral to Middle Eastern social media culture, were chosen for their relatability and ability to authentically connect with families. This cultural alignment ensured our message was not only heard but also embraced, amplifying its effectiveness in a market deeply rooted in tradition and community values.

Background

In a challenging market, Finish's effectiveness was undisputed, but dishwasher use was limited by cultural habits and low awareness. Our campaign aimed to transform consumer perceptions and penetrate the market. We focused on Finish's ability to tackle tough grease, common in local cuisine. The campaign leveraged TikTok, due to its popularity among younger demographics and high engagement potential. It had dual goals: educating consumers on Finish's benefits in dishwashers and enhancing brand visibility. By addressing a local pain point, grease removal, we sought to reposition Finish as not just a cleaner but an enabler of family time and culinary enjoyment.

Describe the creative idea

The campaign was centered on the concept of 'Clean Dishes, More Wishes.' This innovative idea went beyond standard product promotion to tap into the emotional core of family and culinary happiness. Recognizing the pivotal role of mealtimes in Middle Eastern family life, the campaign aimed to shift the narrative from the mundane chore of dishwashing to the pleasures of cooking and gathering.

To achieve this, TikTok influencers were engaged to craft authentic stories that showcased Finish's role in making family meals easier. Their content was relatable, depicting the challenges of dealing with greasy dishes and the convenience provided by Finish.

This was about seamlessly integrating Finish into daily family life, making it a household essential. The campaign creatively blended tradition with modern social media trends, striking an emotional chord with the target audience. This made the campaign highly effective in conveying establishing a strong connection with consumers.
