Any good news???
What are the Goals?
Can you bring a small brand back from the
dead?
We discovered after talking with consumers:• Genuinely excellent product• Almost 100% pack recognition• Has become retro (by accident!)• Interesting brand history• Competitors don’t engage with consumers
• Convert pack awareness into brand awareness• Establish L’Onglex as an online nail authority • Gain trial with 20-34 year olds• Get across message of L’Onglex benefits
• Off the market for 4 months• Zero brand awareness• Loyal older consumers but rarely use polish• Fighting global brands with more credibility• In a low involvement niche category
Online perfect for L’Onglex
Where are we after 9 weeks?
The brand personality & values (French chic, caring) are embedded into everything, from pack design and formulation to social media:• www.longlex.com beauty blog with twice daily content• Waves of product draws on Facebook, with winners posting reviews

Measure it questions?
1. Is organic growth a myth?Facebook only grows when adverts running
Twitter stuck at 290 followers
2. Quality of engagement terrific but are we only scratching on the surface? Relative to size of market, what number of fans or level of engagement represents success?
27,000 heavy polish users (> once per wk)
71,000 medium polish users (= once a wk)
3. You need to measure against specific objectives but what do we judge against as a small brand in a niche category where there is little data?
