Case Study in Promotional Strategies
Axe Detailer: Initiating a Change in Men’s Showering Behavior
The case is about the promotional strategies used by Unilever’s personal care brand for men, Axe, for its shower accessory the Axe Detailer, which was launched to encourage the increased use of the Axe Shower Gel. Launched in 1983, Axe’s product line included grooming products for men such as deodorants, body sprays, shower gels, and hair care and styling products. Over the years, Axe’s promotional efforts had been focused on the ‘Boy gets Girl’ theme, highlighting the strong fragrance as the product credential which attracts girl. With the success of its body sprays, Axe launched a line of anti-perspirant and deodorant sticks in 2004. The brand then expanded into shower gels for men in 2005.

However, shower gel sales were not as expected as most of the target customers were more used to bar soaps and it was difficult to trigger a shift in their showering behavior. The management then decided to launch a new kind of shower accessory called the Axe Detailer to boost the sales of Axe Shower Gel. The case also discusses the promotional campaigns launched by Unilever for the Axe Detailer. Click here to read more…
