I wrote this in 2004- many moons ago... as my last presentation in Bradford, where I had gone for the Chevening scholarship. The last section is about what I learnt there as a person.
8. Good ads, well executed, clear message⊠ButâŠis there more to beauty⊠What can make us stand apartâŠ
9. Learnings Lost in the âsamenessâ Superficial beauty Impossibly beautiful âperfectâ women Emotions /benefits restricted to âfeelingsâ ( confidence, freedom etc) Result: Very replicable.More of the same.
13. Learnings Buying into the category, not necessarily the brand Cynical disbelief Does not resonate with her life, the issues she faces Result: Does not bond with the brand
17. How can advertising help create âheartscapeâ brands? How can we move away from picture perfect imagery to credible, achievable and a ârealnessâ in beauty?
