The market system is ramped up, with many brands striving to thrive amidst dozens of competitors. Hence, a thorough understanding of what your customers want and a tactful study of your competitor’s strengths and weaknesses would set your business on track.
An excellent brand builds a substantial competitive advantage by providing customers with an overall value over competitors who offer the same services equally. That is why Colgate decided to develop this unique marketing strategy in Singapore.
Colgate, an American brand of oral care products like toothpaste, toothbrushes, dental floss and many more, has ramped up the market with its exceptional custom-printed bowls, which is the aftermath of Colgate’s collaborative effort with a famous Japanese Cartoon Character, Gudetama, from the Japanese company, Sanrio.
Who Gets These Gifts?
For every purchase of 3150g tubes of Colgate’s toothpaste, customers get a 2-in-1 bowl pack. Customers can choose from 3 varieties of toothpaste, with each bowl set designed differently. The variants include Professional Clean, Whitening, and Charcoal Deep Clean toothpaste.
You can imagine getting these three variants equivalent to having three bowls!
