Lily of France wanted to establish a brand identity representing its French component, develop Lily as the brand spokeswoman, and expand the definition of sexy beyond appearance, doing all of this via an engaging promotion. After performing an intense brand immersion, LeapFrog Interactive’s creative team developed a plan to introduce online fashionistas to Lily of France.
A richly detailed promotional site invited visitors to drop in on Lily herself in her posh Parisian apartment. In addition to designing and developing the minisite, the campaign integrated promotional efforts including demographically-targeted display ads on fashion-related sites, email marketing, and social media monitoring and promotion via MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, blogs, and forums to capitalize on the site’s viral potential.
In keeping with the brand’s goals of promoting both inner and outer sexiness, the site offered a fun, interactive video quiz where women could discover their own unique “Signature Sexy Style,” then receive personalized fashion tips for lingerie lines from Lily of France. After quiz completion, users could enter a sweepstakes to win a $600 shopping spree.
Quiz participants also had the option of forwarding their sexy style profile to friends. As an added incentive, those who forwarded the site to at least 5 friends received a coupon code for 40% off an online purchase of lingerie at Lily of France’s ecommerce site.
A branded HTML email was deployed upon site launch to Lily of France’s existing email database. The email highlighted both the fun of the quiz itself and the incentives (including the sweepstakes.)
Similarly, a campaign of blog display advertising was launched on targeted fashion-related blogs and websites to capture the attention of the audience most likely to respond to the promotion.
The site launch and sweepstakes were promoted through direct pitches to prominent fashion bloggers, an optimized online press release, and other social media monitoring and promotional efforts.
The campaign met its objectives, establishing the desired brand identity and giving Lily of France additional referral information to help build its marketing database as well as increasing sales on the brand’s e-commerce site.
