#TheScoopOnPoop –Ending Stigmas to Improve Health
Here’s how we got Canadians to flush their poo taboos and drive sales for SENOKOT® Natural Laxative!
Strategic Objectives helped Senokot change the conversation about laxatives, and position them as an ally in achieving overall health and wellness.
The challenge
Re-poo-sition the Social Conversation
The solution
Flush Canada’s Poo Taboos
To explore why Canadians avoid talking about bathroom habits, we launched a national discussion on regularity while promoting Senokot’s role in achieving a healthier you.
National Poo Taboo Survey: Key findings revealed that 52% of Canadians suffer from irregularity, 50% say constipation affects their ability to live their best life, and 57% of Millennials are afraid to use laxatives. Additionally, 32% would rather do anything than talk about their poo, with 9% preferring to swim with sharks.
Media, Blogger, and Influencer Relations: We distributed a bilingual news release and infographic to mainstream, social, and digital media, bloggers, and influencers through a robust media relations campaign aimed at educating consumers.
Campaign Spokesperson: We partnered with social influencer Amanda Muse, who led our poo-sitivity crusade, starting candid conversations about regularity and challenging Canadians to end the poo taboo.
#TheScoopOnPoop Influencer Partnerships: We collaborated with lifestyle influencers to generate authentic endorsements for Senokot, encouraging Millennials to celebrate their #2 as key to overall health and wellbeing.
Our disruptive, poo-forward campaign hit the mark and exceeded measurable objectives. Our bold, purpose-led communications secured 100% positive, branded coverage for Senokot, broke down social barriers, and gave Canadians permission to talk about, and celebrate their #2s. The campaign won the 2020 IABC/Toronto Ovation Awards for Excellence in Promotional Writing and Merit in Media Relations, and drove a significant sales increase.
