Case Study: #LIKEAGIRL
Feminine care brand P&G’s Always wanted to target the next generation of consumers. The company noticed an opportunity to support girls as they transition from puberty to young women.
The campaign uses television, print and social media, the centerpiece of #LikeAGirl is a video created by documentary filmmaker Lauren Greenfield in partnership with respected groups like UNESCO, Lean In and Girl Scouts of America.
- The film generated more than 85 million views on YouTube from more than 150 countries.
- After watching the video, 76% percent no longer saw the phrase negatively.
- Two out of three men who watched the film said they’d now think twice before using “like a girl” as an insult.
The beauty of this particular campaign, was the use of a documentary-styled storytelling, making it compelling upon watching the various girls, young ladies and women and their responses. The beauty of humanity, reflected in their layers of experiences.
