Havas shows that Ricola is always an issue
The Ricola brand was looking for ways to be more in the conversation with its customers. To this end, Havas developed an always-on campaign for Ricola's social media channels.
The company had previously relied on individual spontaneous stories for content on its social media channels. The challenge was to use simple means to generate more visibility, stay top-of-mind with Swiss consumers, and gain new fans.
Havas developed the idea for a humorous always-on campaign for Ricola's social media channels - Facebook, Youtube and Instagram. In these static posts, stories and videos, a headline and supporting graphic elements each pick up on a current topic. The selected daily or weekly news items are linked to the benefits, the products or the history of Ricola.
Relevance to the target group is the top priority. However, since Ricola's fan base is very broad, Havas plays out each post specifically for a previously defined target group - depending on the current topic.
Responsible at Ricola: Dominique Dresel (Vice President Marketing Europe II), Jost Lingg (Head of Brand & Product Management Switzerland), Lauren Schramm (Marketing Manager Switzerland), Fiona Wägerle (Digital & Brand Experience Manager). Responsible at Havas: Agron Gjini (Account Director), Dimitri Ottiger (Account Director), Christian Meier (Senior Programmatic Consultant), Nicolai Abel (Senior Social Media Consultant), Dominik Brülisauer (Copywriter), Helen Ingold (Junior Art Director).
