Heinz Limited Ketchup: Find The Right Spokesperson Who Truly Love Your Brand

One common way to celebrate the brand anniversary is to introduce the limited-edition product. How to make this limited-edition product even more special? Celebrity endorsement seems a good idea to raise brand awareness and promote the new product. 

Can any celebrity be a good spokesperson for the brand? Most brands would like to invite celebrities or influencers who are similar to their target audience and have enough popularity. However, what if your product targets on almost everyone?

Heinz Tomato Ketchup is for people who love ketchup. Ketchup is a very common and popular dipping sauce on the table. Many American restaurants put one bottle of Heinz Tomato Ketchup on each table.

To celebrate 150 years anniversary, Heinz worked with Ed Sheeran to launch limited-edition ketchup, which is named "Edchup". This limited-edition bottle of Edchup features a variety of  Ed's tattoos and signature. There was a total of 150 bottles, and 104 of them had given away in online sweepstakes.

Ed Sheeran has always been a super fan of Heinz ketchup. He even has Heinz logo inked on his skin, so choosing Ed to celebrate the brand's anniversary is a "romantic" idea. This special bottle is a way to express how the brand cares about loyal consumers.

For most brands no matter food, fashion, or makeup, their brand spokesperson may be a suitable person to promote the brand, but they may not really like the brand. Most of those spokespersons are doing this for money. Do they really care about this brand? Do they really use their product all the time? For most brands, probably the main reason to work with influencers is that they are popular and have a lot of fans. It seems that brands and influencers are using each other for their own benefits.

Heinz and Ed Sheeran are true love. Ed Sheeran always shares how much he loves Heinz on social media and even inked the logo on his skin. For the past 150 years, Heinz never worked with any influencers to celebrate the anniversary. This is the first time to work with a famous singer who is also a super fan of the brand. This limited-edition bottle of ketchup is a special and respectful way to show an appreciation to their loyal consumers.  

Therefore, if the brands want to have a deep conversation with their consumers, they should find the right spokesperson who truly loves your brand, too. Heinz and Ed Sheeran partnership is a great example to show what a responsible brand is.

Starbucks: Three Main Benefits For Writing Customer Name On The Cup

Whenever I order a small Starbucks coffee, I am always asked "What's your first name?" by a cashier. Even I was the only person to order, they still asked my name. Not only Starbucks, now many other bubble tea brands such as Vivi, Coco, Gong Tea also start calling customer's names. Why does Starbucks write customer name on the cup? What're the benefits to do that? Image from writingelves.com Self-Promotion In the beginning, Starbucks wrote customer names because they received too many orders. Marking down names would prevent mistakes. Later on, Starbucks found that writing names do not only improve work efficiency but also increase brand awareness.   Sometimes (most times) Starbucks spell the wrong name. You think customers will get angry? Actually no. In contrast, people feel Starbucks is not only a coffee shop but also a coffee shop with its own personality.  Image From Memeguy Some customers also make fun with Starbucks. They come up with...

Pantene "Power of Grey" Campaign: Every Color Is Shining

Many of my girlfriends started to change their hair color. A new hair color brings a new look which makes them feel different.  I never color my hair because I love my black hair. If one day I get white hair, I might change the color because I don't want to look old. See, white or grey hair means old. It is a very common thought in society. What if someone was born in grey hair?  Pantene found that 80% of Brits have grey hair, but 40% cover them because they feel less confident with grey hair.  So, Pantene launched "Power of Grey" Campaign to encourage people to embrace their unique trait: grey hair.  Yes, grey hair is different, but they are also beautiful the way they are.  The new Pantene hair care product is special for grey hair and will make them shiner.

Pampers "Love The Change" Ad Review: Good Story Always Comes From Real Life

Being a parent is exciting but also challenging. The new Pampers Ad "Love The Change" tells the true story of being new parents and how a baby changes our life. As a new parent, we may feel fear and worried when the baby throws up. We may be still awake in the late night to hold our baby to sleep. We may forget to bring some baby care supplies when we need it. We may search for our concerns online to get help. No matter how difficult to deal with every trouble, once the baby smile, all we could feel is happiness.  As long as we are together, we want to accompany our baby to change and grow up. A baby brings surprise, happiness, and a wonderful memory. When I see this ad, I feel touchable and real. I am a new mom, too. All these scenes in the Ad I have been through. I was afraid when my baby was crying; I woke up every two hours to feed my baby every night, and I also search for a lot of weird questions on Google. Instea...
