PZ Cussons launches Being with Cult Ldn to speak to younger audiences
PZ Cussons has launched their youth brand ‘Being’ with the help of creative communications agency Cult Ldn.
PZ Cussons Beauty, the manufactures of St. Tropez, Sanctuary Spa, Charles Worthington and Fudge, are set to launch Being by Sanctuary Spa, targeting the centennial market shopping for body care on the high street.
Cult Ldn have developed an end-to-end brand launch strategy, which includes mapping the full brand positioning and brand tone of voice. Cult have also been appointed to run a complete social and in-store launch strategy, aimed at building awareness and brand equity in ways that resonate with a truly pioneering digital consumer.
Jacqueline Burchell, global marketing and product development director for PZ Cussons Beauty, said: “The launch of Being is exciting for our business as this young, new customer is making us think completely differently. Their hyper-connectedness means they are comparison shopping all the time. Strong branding, compelling products and strategies to connect with this audience are key components.
“Through our powerful images, influencer partnerships and involvement with the charity, The Mix, we hope to engage with this generation in meaningful ways that will emotionally connect and build brand loyalty. Our products are as fresh AF (as these youths might say) and we’re setting a new beauty standard which we believe will resonate.
“Our aim for Being is to create a brand that becomes part of their life, that understands them and speaks to them in a fun and open way.”
Bridey Lipscombe, co-founder of Cult Ldn commented on the launch: “Conventional campaign models do not apply to our target consumer group, rather than simply buying, we know that they buy into a stance that resonates with them. Our younger consumer wants to feel that they are part of an ever evolving brand and community.
"As a result, our communications strategy has been built collaboratively with influencers and is reactive to consumer feedback, wants and live news agenda to support their vision of real diversity in beauty."
Cult Ldn is based in Whitechapel, London and works with clients such as Royal Albert, Agent Provocateur and Frankie and Bennys.
They will be hosting their next insight event, ‘Artificial intelligence vs emotional intelligence’ on 24 May.
