The Digital Challenge for Kimberly-Clark
Supermarket brands
Low involvement categories
Brand sites not part of the shopping
experience
How on earth do you get mums wanting to
engage with a toilet paper brand?

products

Drives positive engagement, improving brand perception

The Kleenex Journey: From Brochure-ware...
23
To Co- Creation
For mums, by mums
24
A new online community
launched in October where
like-minded mums can
connect
All content written by Aussie
mums
1000s of conversations, all
brought to you by Kleenex
Adding value with engaging content
We conducted the largest
ever survey of Aussie
mums with kids 0-12
4,000 mums gave us their
honest thoughts and
feelings about motherhood.
We‟ve taken these
learnings to develop a
compelling content strategy
for Kleenex Mums
25
Adding value with engaging content
Rich content helps
create value, trust
and engagement
It gives you the
opportunity to engage
with your target and
earn the right to be a
part of their world
26
We can also start conversations with mums
about toilet paper!
27
And get them generating content for us too!
28
A new fun & interactive micro-site, poopooisland.com.au
has just been launched with a mockumentary and clips of
real mums sharing their „poo stories‟ to tap into mum‟s
predisposition to talk about all things „poo‟
Digital success is dependent on creating
compelling content for both owned and earned
media distribution
KCA’s content driven strategy
29
Owned content
impressions must
deliver value and utility
to consumer
Owned Media
Earned content builds
brand credibility as
consumers are doing
the talking

Traditional Media still has a strong role
Average Australian spends 3 hours/ day watching TV
TV has 97.5% penetration
KCA continues to invest in TV, but we now include online call to action to make it work harder

More than a conversation, a relationship
It is key to stay close to consumers, not only
to help manage conversations, but to drive
innovation.
When we really understand our consumers,
we can make better products
And you have to make better products – if
you don‟t the whole world will know about it!
41
More than a conversation, a relationship
We also have our own in-house panels full
of consumers keen to have their say...
– Cost-effective real time feedback
– A community who helps us improve our
brands/products etc
– Tap into hard to reach audiences
Result = quicker and more nimble than
ever before

What we’ve learnt about social media
Listen first.
• You can‟t jump in shouting about your
brands
• Get to know the crowd first, and get a sense
of the conversation before jumping in
Add value.
• When you do join the conversation, add
value to it
• Provide useful and interesting content
Win reach.
54
Be accessible, approachable
Meet the mum behind
Kleenex Mums
– One to one
communication
– Genuine dialogue
– Deepening the relationship
55
A new consumer-centric framework
It‟s no longer about spending resource driving consumers toward a manufactured brand experience
It‟s about rethinking content for FMCG / CPG site and leveraging social media channels
Provide content for her to discover and engage with and create more authentic brand experiences.
56
The consumer is in charge
Every minute, control shifts away from
KCA and into the hands of consumers
AND IT‟S POWERFUL.
Embrace it
Invest in relationships
57
Strong relationships build
strong brands
59
A winning relationship
with mum
Building a life-long connection with Mum
Opted-in consumers and brand fan bases are a huge asset
We make considerable and consistent investments in building relationships over time
We believe in making life-long connections...
