Why is this work relevant for Integrated?
The Real Self-Checkout turns ubiquitous supermarkets self-checkouts into real ones, with in-store ambassadors and nudge messaging raising awareness while customised receipts complete with a ‘bra code’ icon, used across stores throughout Breast Cancer Awareness month. The campaign also includes in-store point-of-sale displays, car park banners and checkout prompts on Asda.com, as well as film, print, radio and social ads, featuring lines such as ‘Self checkouts could save you more than time’, and ‘Make sure your shopping isn’t the only thing you checkout today’.
Background
Checking yourself every month for breast cancer could save your life. You may already know this, but alarmingly, only 1 in 2 women regularly check themselves. It’s even less for men. We saw October 2022’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month as an opportunity to capitalise on ASDA's role in the lives of its customers and create a stand-out campaign that would follow shoppers at every turn. If we could drive real behavioural change amongst its 19m shoppers, we could step up the fight against breast cancer.
Describe the creative idea
We built a comms strategy around a behaviour change model utilising key touchpoints throughout the customer journey to anchor multiple messages around self-checks.Our creative messaging fell into three phases: Prime: Raising awareness of the need for a self-checkout amongst the adult population. Nudge: Using in-store self-checkouts, grocery products and other shopping collateral to nudge people to check their breasts. Remind: Remind people to check their breasts when they get home via media they’ll see on their journey home, in-home reminders and text alerts. To get the self-check message into peoples’ heads, we used a combination of radio ads and social videos. Nudge tactics followed in the retail environment with strategically placed messages, containing a liberal dose of humour. These were supported by print and digital posters, store receipts and the ASDA rewards app. Finally came the at-home reminder courtesy of shopping bags, barcodes, text alerts and CRM emails.

To target ASDA's 19m shoppers, we built a comms strategy around a model for behaviour change, utilising key touchpoints throughout the customer journey to anchor multiple messages around self-checks.
