Describe the brief from the client
Blackstone is a new whiskey brand that wanted to make it into the youth market.
Describe the challenges and key objectives
Create a promotional action to reach the youth market. Compete against all the strong, traditional and international whisky brand.
Describe how you arrived at the final design
Firstly, we decided that the package for this whisky would no longer be elegant, restrained and boring.
Secondly, we developed 3 concepts based on youth insights on drinking situations, which we call ‘limited edition moments’:
1. BBQ with the guys
2. Dinner with her dad
3. Before the first date
Lastly, we designed 3 packaging based on those concepts.
Give some indication of how successful the outcome was in the market
The promotional packs made a huge impact: 50,000 units sold without any ads, and stock sold out in fewer than 60 days.
