Dove launched its "Real Beauty" campaign in 2004 with the aim of shifting
societal perceptions around beauty standards. This campaign was a bold move,
emphasizing body positivity and self-esteem by featuring women of various
shapes, sizes, ages, and ethnicities in its advertisements. This strategy
represented a significant departure from the conventional portrayal of beauty in
the media, which often relies on narrow and unrealistic standards.
The primary goal of the "Real Beauty" campaign was to change the audience’s
attitudes about beauty and, by extension, about Dove as a brand. Dove sought to
associate itself with a more inclusive and realistic perception of beauty,
distancing itself from the industry norm of using unrealistic and narrowly
defined standards. By doing so, Dove aimed to build a more positive and
relatable brand image.
However, the campaign faced some challenges and criticisms. Some critics
questioned the authenticity of Dove’s message, pointing out that Unilever,
Dove’s parent company, continued to promote traditional beauty standards
through its other product lines. This raised doubts about the genuine nature of
Dove’s commitment to body positivity. There were also concerns about the
commercialization of social issues, with some arguing that Dove was leveraging
body positivity primarily for profit rather than genuine social change.
Maintaining consistency across all of Unilever's brands proved challenging, as
some of Dove’s sister brands continued to use traditional beauty standards in
their marketing, creating a perceived conflict and diluting Dove’s message.
Successes:
Challenges:
- Limited Names: While the campaign featured a wide range of names, not
every consumer could find their name on a Coke bottle. This led to some
disappointment among consumers whose names were not included,
potentially impacting their perception of the campaign.
- Sustainability Concerns: The production of personalized labels for
millions of bottles and cans raised concerns about environmental
sustainability. Critics argued that the campaign generated unnecessary
waste and contributed to pollution, particularly as many personalized
bottles were kept as keepsakes rather than recycled.
Identify the business issues and communication tasks for Star Kombucha.
What communication tools do you advise Star Kombucha to use in this
case? Why?
The primary business issue for Star Kombucha is the lack of awareness among
young consumers about the health benefits of their product, leading to lagging
sales despite being the only kombucha drink distributed at Circle K in Vietnam.
Therefore, the main communication task is to increase awareness and
understanding of the product's benefits among the target demographic of
students and young individuals with discretionary income.
Considering this, the most effective communication tools for Star Kombucha
would be:
These communication tools are recommended because they align with the
brand's objective of increasing awareness and understanding of the health
benefits of Star Kombucha among young consumers in Vietnam. By utilizing
digital marketing, PR, and targeted advertising, Star Kombucha can effectively
reach its target audience and drive sales growth.
● Knorr is a condiment brand from Unilever that has been in Vietnam for the
last two decades. Knorr advertises its product as a flavor enhancer that
brings about the “roundedness taste” to homemade dishes. It targets
mothers of all ages in metropolitan areas of Vietnam. Like many other
Unilever brands, Knorr always tries to innovate and expand its product line
to better meet the customer’s needs. Recently, Knorr launched its newest
Knorr Organic mushroom product.
Who do you think is the target audience for the new product?
Do you think the Masked Singer Vietnam Game Show would be an
appropriate media to promote the product? Why or why not?
The new Knorr Organic mushroom product is likely targeting a specific segment of
consumers who prioritize health and sustainability. This audience can be characterized
as follows:
diet and prefer organic and natural ingredients. They are likely to be concerned
about the nutritional quality of their food and avoid artificial additives.

pay a premium for organic products because of the perceived benefits to the

While the Masked Singer Vietnam Game Show is a strong candidate, there are potential
drawbacks to consider:
need to assess whether the potential reach and impact justify the investment.
2. Match with Brand Image: The show’s tone and style should align with the
brand’s image. If the show’s content is too frivolous or disconnected from the

● Comfort là thương hiệu nước xả vải nổi tiếng của Unilever. Gần đây,
Comfort đã mở rộng dòng sản phẩm của mình và tung ra nước giặt
Comfort. Nước giặt này có giá đắt hơn thương hiệu OMO (cũng của
Unilever) khoảng 100.000 đồng.
Để xây dựng thông điệp truyền thông cho Comfort, Anh/chị đề xuất sẽ sử
dụng hình thức thu hút nào ? (nêu cụ thể hướng xây dựng thông điệp tùy
theo hình thức thu hút lý trí/ cảm xúc/ kết hợp).
Giải thích lựa chọn của anh/chị và gợi ý cách thức thực hiện sáng tạo để
triển khai
5. Tết Tân Sửu 2021, OMO tung ra MV ca nhạc Tết “Cả ngàn lời chúc” đến với
giới trẻ với sự kết hợp của hai nghệ sĩ Suboi và Rhymastic, truyền tải thông điệp
về một cái “Tết xanh” với hành động trồng cây bảo vệ môi trường. Mở đầu bài
hát, lời ca theo phong cách nhạc rap nêu tình trạng chúc “suông”, thiếu chân
thành đang tiếp diễn hàng năm, để sau đó đưa ra cách giải quyết “Lời chúc chỉ là
một chút nguyện vọng - Để thành phúc, cần một lúc hành động”. Khẩu hiệu “Lời
chúc hóa hành động - Lấm bẩn mang điều hay” của nhãn hàng OMO được lồng
ghép ở cuối MV kêu gọi mọi người biến lời chúc thành hành động lấm bẩn trên
khắp Việt Nam; cụ thể là trồng cây, gieo an lành cho năm mới. Hãy cho biết chiến
thuật sáng tạo thu hút được lựa chọn ở đây là gì? Trong tình huống này, anh/chị
cho rằng chiến thuật này có ưu điểm và nhược điểm gì?
● Advantages:
Attracting the attention of young people: Combination between music and famous
artists such as Suboi and Rhymastic help increase interest from young people. This is
important because young people are often a difficult audience and this strategy helps
get the message to this audience effectively.
Establishing a connection with the brand: OMO's integration of the slogan "Greetings
turns into action - Getting dirty brings good things" at the end of the MV helps establish
a connection between the brand and the positive social message. Viewers can connect
the brand with environmental protection actions, creating a positive impression of
OMO. I
mplementing social goals: This strategy is not only aimed at advertising products but
also towards an important social goal, which is environmental protection. Encouraging
viewers to plant trees and sow peace is a positive action that can create a positive
impact in the community.
● Disadvantages:
Risks of targeting: Although this tactic can attract young people, it may not be effective
if the right audience is not selected. Some people may not be interested in rap music or
not properly aware of the environmental protection message.
Potential for misunderstanding of message: Rap style and artistic elements can make
the message complex and confusing for some people. This can lead to
misunderstandings or loss of message effectiveness.
Does not fully reflect the actual state: Using a style such as rap can lose the solemnity
and seriousness in conveying the message of environmental protection. This may make
some people feel like the message isn't sincere or important enough

nhộn vừa thu hút, vừa dạy trẻ đánh răng đúng cách. Anh/chị hãy đánh giá hoạt
động truyền thông nêu trên của P/S Việt Nam trên các phương diện phù hợp với
công chúng mục tiêu và định vị thương hiệu?
Suitable for target public: P/S Vietnam's communication activities target children
between the ages of 6-8 years old and their parents. Creating an interactive animated
adventure that incorporates AR technology on mobile devices is a creative and relevant
way to capture the interest and engagement of children and parents.
Brand positioning: P/S Vietnam positions itself as an oral care brand for children. This
communication activity creates a unique and fun interactive experience, helping to
build P/S's image as a toy and educational brand, while ensuring children's oral and
health health.
Create positive expectations and engagement: Offering a 21-day adventure with new
animated characters each night creates positive anticipation and engagement on the part
of children. They become excited and look forward to their daily brushing time, thanks
to catchy music and activities.
Range of interaction: This activity requires the participation of mobile devices with
front cameras, which may limit the range of interaction for families who do not have

need for continuous improvement and innovation in content and activities.
