Insights, Strategy & the Idea
During the summertime, temperatures in Brazil reach 42ºC. Consumption of fans increases by 70%. Our objective was to develop point of sale material that highlighted the main benefit of the Arno Turbo Silence fans: their power.
Creative Execution
We created a display that showed the product actually working at the entrance of stores. At the street, in front of the display, we turned a real car over on its side. The action showed, in practical terms, the product’s main benefit. Arno Turbo Silence: maximum wind power.
Results and Effectiveness
With a differentiated use of a traditional medium, we were able to emphasise the message and highlight the Arno Turbo Silence fan from its competitors, increasing product search by 20% during the time in which the promotion took place. Arno reinforced its image as an innovative and surprising brand.
