83. Hind Unilever, P&G Offer New Creams For Old – February 07

HUL and P&G launch schemes to lure consumers into sampling their brands

Hindustan Unilever Ltd. (HUL) and Procter & Gamble Co. (P&G) have launched a similar scheme to lure consumers into sampling their brands, Pond’s Age Miracle and Olay Total Effects, respectively. P&G set up ‘Olay Effects Challenge’ zones at the Infiniti mall in Andheri and offered consumers to come and swap their current moisturisers for a new bottle of Olay Total Effects. The FMCG company also roped in Tisca Chopra (of Taare Zameen Par fame) to endorse the brand. On the other hand, HUL’s Ponds Age Miracle initiated a similar programme for women across the six metros (Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Kolkata, Hyderabad and Chennai), where consumers may visit any Pond’s counter and exchange their old skin cream, used or unused, for a new Pond’s Age Miracle Day Cream worth Rs 400.
