Benzac Brand Vision – 3 years…
• To create a strong OTC range capturing the self-select teen pimple/spot
sufferers
• Focus on a consumer approach, leveraging expertise in dermatology
• Expand brand to include complimentary cleansers, moisturisers,
spot-treatments etc
• Phase 1: Re-launch the brand with current line-up, to improve brand
awareness, relevance and appeal - 2013
• Phase 2: Line extend the brand into other product formats and evolve
brand awareness, relevance & appeal - 2014
4. 4
Opportunity…
• Galderma have requested NMG develop a strategy for Benzac that will
drive brand awareness, relevance and appeal through all marketing
touch-points to deliver minimum 20% growth.
• Primary Target
• Male/Females 14-17 years old suffering from mild-moderate
pimples/spots
• Can be very cynical about products that overpromise
• Secondary target
• Mothers
• Purchasers of product
5. 5
The campaign objectives are to…
• Develop a ‘brand personality‘ ownable to Benzac
• Capitalise on the no-fuss nature of the product
• Maintain Image of serious skincare and efficacy, recommended by
Health Care Professionals
• Don’t lose credibility
• The idea needs to be campaignable
• Through‐the‐line application and strong viral potential (Social media)
• Benzac purchasing still occurs mainly on an ‘as needed’ basis
• Whilst recent research indicated there was a directional increase in
the proportion of people who indicate it is an essential part of the
skincare regime, we need to grow this
6. 6
Benzac should continue to capitalise on it’s strengths...
• Recent research concluded that POS and HCPs were both channels
where Benzac’s key brand strengths can be effectively communicated
• In-store exposure was seen as a dominant source of awareness
after a directional increase since 2010
• Pharmacist recommendation was also still very important
7. 7
And cast the net wider...
• Research also found that:
• Friends & family were also a source of awareness and information
for our primary target market
• Further communications to this target should also assist in driving
brand awareness
• The internet has also changed the way we shop
• When consumers hear about a product today, their first reaction is
‘Let me search online for it’
• They go on a journey of discovery: about a product, a service,
an issue, an opportunity
9. 9
Zero moment of truth…
• ZMOT is a vital new addition to the classic three-step process of stimulus, shelf,
experience.
• For customers, it’s when they grab their computer, or another wired device to start
learning about a product or service they’re thinking about or start talking with their
family & friends
10. 10
Zero moment of truth…
• 84% of shoppers use ZMOT sources in the path to purchase*
• 83% of mums do online research after seeing commercials for products that
interest them*
• The average shopper uses 10.4 sources of information to make a decision
• Up from 5.3 sources in 2010*

The Australian Journal of Pharmacy (AJP) awards celebrate the
most successful advertising ‘and’ PR campaigns...
In winning the 2011 AJP Award for
‘Best OTC Product or Device’ , NMG
demonstrated innovation and value to
health and wellbeing, as well as success
through pharmacy in terms of launch, sales
support, marketing and communication
with pharmacists and pharmacy assistants.
True campaign integration.
22. 22
Benzac logo and packaging…
• The current Benzac AC logo and packaging are dated and lacks a
contemporary feel. It has the look of a sterile prescription medication,
which may in fact work in Benzac’s favour (efficacy) but may limit the
products widespread appeal.
• This is counteracting Benzac’s ability to compete directly with Proactiv and
less effective, yet slicker, supermarket brands such as Clean & Clear and
Clearasil
• Our aim is to maintain the credibility of the current packaging whilst
making it more contemporary and accessible.
• This includes the logo and the packaging design
• Benzac rather than Benzac AC?
34. 34
Creative springboard (proposition)…
The quiet achiever
• Down to earth & honest
• Aware of overt marketing and repels the sell
• Inherent comfort in own skin
• Embraces uniqueness
• No flake, performs under pressure
• Intelligent, not easily lead, own code
35. 35
Initial creative thought starters…
• Don’t try too hard
• Focus on core product benefits
• Honest, yet subtle
• Don’t compete directly with bigger, slicker brands
• No bells, no whistles, no contracts or ongoing credit card charges
• Just pimple cream that works
• Empower teens to make a choice at a time when they feel vulnerable
59. 59
There are two potential targeting opportunities for Benzac and
it’s important we review each one to understand the impact on
the brand…
Mums
• The primary purchaser
• Wants the best for her child and the clinical packaging/look of
Benzac appeals to them
• Is not impacted by the celebrity based and slick messaging of
competitors
• However the big risk is positioning Benzac as the “uncool” acne
solution
• The one your mum chose for you!
• Engage her when we are least likely to impact Teens
60. 60
There are two potential targeting opportunities for Benzac and
it’s important we review each one to understand the impact on
the brand…
Teens
• The end user
• Acne is a BIG issue for them
• They want results
• Making their own decisions in ever increasing areas of their lives
• Empower them to make the right decisions
61. 61
If men are from Mars and women are from Venus this is only
exaggerated when it comes to teens…
The Boys
• Shy
• Closed
• Don’t want to appear soft
The Girls
• Open
• Sharing
• Discuss everything!
62. 62
Our strategy is three-fold…
Mums
• Impact via in-store
promotion / PR
• Avoid dual
targetting with
Teens
Teen Females
• Primary focus for
paid media in 2013
• Connect via ‘their’
media avenues
Teen Males
• Impact via events
• Female influence
• Co-target for 2014
with tailored
message
63. 63
Successful communication with teens is not only about media
investment weight, it is about identifying, infiltrating and activating
communication platforms & communities…
Peer groups dictate what’s hot
• Utilise their communities and facilitate sharing and personalisation
• Let them share their success
Technology is their lifeblood
• Be on their platforms
Entertainment is always on
• Need to keep content fresh or risk being overlooked and irrelevant
• Benzac has a great story to tell
• Efficacy and HCP recommendation
64. 64
Successful communication with teens is not only about media
investment weight, it is about identifying, infiltrating and activating
communication platforms & communities…
Communicating is entertainment
• Help facilitate their appetite to communicate and share – educate,
inform and empower
Headliners
• Acknowledge that this generation have a mix and match approach
and feed them bite-size chunks of content
I’m the celebrity
• Acknowledge that coverage of an “event” is far greater than the
event itself
• Facilitate self-promotion
• Look at what “I” did with Benzac
65. 65
With the objectives of building awareness & product
understanding, we have a couple of media options…
Create a stand-alone teen campaign
• Ads purchased on a typical reach and frequency basis
• Extremely costly and likely mean we have to chose segments
(fragments) within the ‘diverse’ Teen market
Seek-out a platform or community to infiltrate with engaging, interactive
content
• We hit audience volume quickly and are able to introduce additional
elements as it suits us
• Face up to Summer
• Face up to your formal
66. 66
The fast-track to awareness & credibility with teens is driven
through established communities…
• Rather than being definitive the following outlines a range of working
examples of how this approach could be brought to life and then coupled
with page advertising
• In this example we are using the ‘Dolly’ masthead
• Reader Road Test
• Dolly Doctor
• Dolly Model Search
• Youth Monitor
• Viewa
• We are open to exploring other options
67. 67
Next steps...
Agree on targeting priority and our go to market proposition
• Female teens as primary
• Males via events
• Co-targeting in 2014
• Mums via in-store POS / PR
Brief candidate media proprietors
• You’re an integral part of this process
Develop campaign framework including possible communication extensions
• TVC support activity
• Home and Away
• Neighbours

Methodology and approach…
NMG and our Social Media partner, Blackglass embrace best of breed
platforms and best practice in the market to set the client up for success from
Day 1.
As shown in the following slides, our methodology and approach is based on
four distinct yet key phases and if followed sets the client up for success.
The 4 key phases are:
• Observe
• Plan
• Engage
• Analyse
73. 73
Competitors – Clean & Clear…
• Clean & Clear have established their position as one of the more active members on Facebook
out of the competitors.
• Their Facebook page currently has around 34,000 Likes and an engaged audience with a
metric of over 2,000 Talking About This.
• The Free Sample Tab allows users to fill a form and receive a free sample within 8 weeks.
• The Products tab gives a full description of each of their products (what it contains), it also
includes information on how it can improve the user’s skin, based on their current skin
condition.
74. 74
Competitors – Proactiv Australia…
• With their long list of A-List celebrities, it is to no one’s surprise that Proactiv chose to display
images of their celebrities as part of their aesthetically-focused Facebook timeline.
• With 28,000 Likes and a Talking About This metric sitting at a mere 140 users, we have
concluded that their audience is not engaged in their page as the content is simply not
captivating their audience.
• As mentioned previously, their page currently boasts 5 Custom Tabs. 1 for their competition, a
form needs to be filled in order to be considered (name, address and email). Buy Proactiv,
which allows the fans to purchase the products via their Facebook page. Two Quizzes, one of
which does not work.
76. 76
Benzac social media strategy & calendar...
• Social media strategy — First Step
• Baseline Activity — Community Management & Content Creation
• Strong tie-in with overall calendar of activities:
• Off-line
• Online
• Ongoing Campaigns
• Advocate Program
• Channels Mix
• Facebook
• YouTube
• Blog
• EDMs
• Campaign Based Activity
• 2/3 Campaigns in the next 12 months
77. 77
Benzac – 12 month plan...
• Benzac should approach social as an ongoing conversation, not a campaign
channel.
• Benzac’s Objectives for the next 12 Months:
*
1. Optimise the Benzac Facebook page.
2. Grow the number of Likes on Facebook.
3. Create a community of engaged fans.
4. Leverage the community for word of mouth (WOM) spread.
5. Increase sales through Facebook.
6. Increase visits to the website.
7. Increase ROI through Product Sampling and Reviews.
78. 78
Content strategy…
• Blogging
• 1-2 articles per week on: skin care tips, application technique, facts
about acne, frequently asked questions, research results, etc.
• Key benefits
• Increase visibility in search engines (SEO)
• Increased Content for digital media
• Linkbait opportunities (incoming links from other site’s with SEO
benefits)
• Centralised position for interaction
• Integration with other Social Media platforms
• Inclusion in Google News
• Can be used in newsletters / email blasts
79. 79
Infographics…
• Infographics are a great way to display
data in a visually appealing way. They can
represent an opportunity to convey
product benefits in an engaging and easy-
to-read way, particularly when integrated
within a content marketing plan or
campaign.
• Key benefits
• Brand reinforcement – consider the
viral nature of a well done
infographic: that alone can be
reason enough to develop one as
part of your content plan.
• Prospect engagement – when
purposefully placed in the hands of
your prospects and customers,
infographics can give your brand
and message a much greater reach
thanks to the high share-ability.
80. 80
Content strategy…
Videos
• One of the most active age groups on
YouTube is the segment of users 18 and
under.
• For this reason, we strongly recommend
Benzac to setup a YT presence and
create content that can be easily found
by the audience. An active presence on
one of the most visited sites in Australia
will allow Benzac to showcase its
products and their benefit, while also
providing video tips on topics such as:
• Skin Care
• How to use Benzac Products
• Make Up tips — targeted to the female
audience
• Experts’ Advice — Doctors, not
celebrities
81. 81
Advocate program…
• We think the Free Sample initiative conducted by Clean & Clear is a clever
one, but we also believe we do so much more. Is to let our audience try
our products for free and then reward them every time they review one of
the products.
• The rewards can than be used to buy the full product at a discounted rate.
This will provide Benzac with true ROI on every single sample given out.
82. 82
Advocate program…
This ongoing campaign will be brought to life using a mix of channels:
• Microsite + Blog
• This will be at the core of the strategy. Users can create an account, fill
a form and apply to receive their free samples. Once the products
have been tested, users can login back into the site and review the
products. Reviews can be provided in the form of star-rating, text
and/or video.
• Facebook
• A Custom Facebook Tab will prompt users to Like the page to get
access to Free Product Samples. A form, connected to that of the
microsite, will ask them to register and go through the process
outlined above.
• YouTube
• We recommend creating a YouTube channel that collects all of the
User Generated Content under different playlists. The benefit of doing
so will be huge in terms of social
84. 84
Benzac campaigns…
Why should people engage with Benzac?
• Giving your target audience an incentive to join your Facebook page should kick-start the
process of building your social community. For instance, “Like our page and receive samples
and an information pack from us.”
Minor Campaign — Your Skin, Your Story
• Our community knows the effectiveness of Benzac’s products. That’s why we want to ask
them to share how Benzac’s has helped them not only with their acne problems but also in
re-gaining confidence. We want to run a short essay campaign where we’ll ask our target
audience to submit their story for a chance to win. As the subject can be sensitive for some,
users will be able to enter anonymously. All of the entrants will be asked to opt-in into our
email newsletter through which they’ll receive special offers and discounts to foster sales and
ROI on the social media activity.
Major Campaign – Face The Facts
• A Quiz Giveaway Campaign that focuses on educating Benzac’s customers on the benefits of
using Benzac products while also providing tips on how to maintain clean skin, in order to
prevent an acne outbreak. The Quiz will have a mix of quirky questions on engaging facts (i.e.:
how many times does a person touches his/her face a day) and questions on personal skin
care. The aim is to engage the audience and, at the same time, educate our customer and
prospects on the products the best suit them.

Building a community…
• Benzac does not have a strong online presence (including social media)
locally
• Benzac needs to begin investing in an online strategy to build a quality
community around its customers
• As well as the provision of engaging and informational content, of primary
importance to Galderma in the implementation of the online strategy is;
• The mitigation of any risk – business, reputational
• How to integrate the social media channel into customer contact
points from a response perspective
Social media policy development.
156. 156
Social media policy development...we can assist…

need to,
• Provide frequently asked questions and answers

day
• Weekends – checked at 12.00pm, 5.00pm and 8.00pm, otherwise
answered next business day

Videos will be an effective and important way of demonstrating
the product benefits and building the brand…

videos will be a major component of the Benzac social media campaign
• Videos will be uploaded on a regular basis during the campaign to various
online channels including Facebook and YouTube.
• They will also be sent to KOL’s and influential blogs
• These videos will not only illustrate the efficacy of the products, the viral
nature of videos will be an effective way of allowing fans to interact with
Benzac, as well as promote the brand to their peers

participate in their creation.”

• Permanent
160. 160
We will help Benzac leverage these conversations by
developing a social media presence including Facebook and
YouTube…
• A follower base will be built on communications that reflect the Benzac brand
• The key is developing ‘engaging ‘content.
• NMG can help develop content about Benzac that will:

development tools) to build an online community around Benzac
• A customised YouTube channel to get members talking and engaging
around skin care issues

3. Australians are the number 1 consumers of Social Media in the World.
4. Facebook tops Google for weekly traffic in the U.S.
5. 1 in 5 couples meet online.
6. 1 in 5 divorces are blamed on Facebook.
7. What happens in Vegas stays on YouTube, Flickr, Twitter, Facebook…
8. 2009 US Department of Education study revealed that on average, online students out performed those

9. If Facebook were a country it would be the world’s 3rd largest and 2x the size of the U.S. population.
10. 80% of US companies now use social media for recruitment; 95% of these using LinkedIn.
We can help with community & content management…
• The Benzac ‘Community & Content Manager’ can work for a certain
amount of hours per month on the following key activities:
• Creating engaging content and managing Benzac social media
audience in a professional, yet down-to-earth way: listening and
then responding in an authentic, meaningful way.
• Accessing professional social media tools to monitor and engage.
• Use storytelling as a vital part of the Benzac brand, personality &
lifestyle experience.
• Establishing a human element to the Benzac brand business, as well
as thought leadership.
• Sharing what makes Benzac different and unique.
• Mastering EdgeRank for optimised Facebook viral results.
• This involvement in conversations will help to foster your current
community and activate new community members.
163. 163
The importance of community management…
• Currently, 11% of Australia’s total Facebook users are aged between 13 and
17 (source: socialbakers.com), which roughly translates to +1 million
Facebook users Australia-wide, and this number is growing by the day.
With these numbers, surely Facebook is the perfect forum for Benzac to
engage with your audience on a social media capacity.
• We believe customer service is an essential aspect of managing a
community on social media. Particularly with a target audience that
includes teenagers aged between 13 and 17. Teenagers are very cynical
about products that over promise, therefore, effectively carrying out
community management is vital in showcasing Benzac’s results.
164. 164
The importance of community management…
• Community management is also key in building engagement levels on the
page. A balanced approach in posting topic-related stories and unrelated-
stories should create a healthy engagement level. The mix in content is to
avoid the bombardment of the same type of information being delivered.
• Social media is all about sharing information between friends and peers.
Therefore, the content posted should relate to your audience and you
should encourage Benzac users to share their stories around the products.
• It is imperative to adopt a sound community management. This will not
only build trust around the brand, but it will also help in educating your
community on how to maintain healthy skin.
165. 165
The Benzac online campaign will involve the following actions…
• Integration of the website, social media and PR
• Including identification and activation of key opinion leaders
• Development of campaign specific social media landing pages
• Proactive social media activities across a variety of channels
• An ongoing program of implementing engaging content
• Reactive responses to exceed customer expectations
• Monitoring of key opinion leaders and influential blogs
• Measurement of success

176. 176

Sources breakdown contd…
• Given the competition mechanism, the highest source of visits was through
Facebook Friends Invites (37%).
• The second highest source was Organic traffic and Viral spread of the competition
(29%). It is hard to say exactly through which channels users landed on the Tab,
however, in our experience, these visits are usually generated through Page
navigation or interactions with Like Stories on a friend’s Timeline.
• The third highest source of visits (20%) were the Sponsored Page Posts Blackglass
optimised for the campaign.
• An example of Sponsored Page Posts can be seen below.
• Blackglass and Bite worked together on crafting the content for the Page Posts,
then Blackglass Social Search Team ran the Sponsored Posts so that
both Fans and non Fans had a much higher likelihood of seeing
the Post and entering the Campaign.
