Client: Warner Leisure Hotels
Anti-aGin campaign
Needing to attract a younger audience (aged 55+) in addition to the current 75+ market), Warner Leisure Hotels wanted to be perceived as a hotel chain which doesn’t take life too seriously. As well as embracing new trends and offering unique opportunities for socialising.
Understanding the audience mindset through market insight
Using internal sales data at the bars and restaurants in Warner Leisure Hotels across the country, combined with quantitative research of British adults aged 55+, we discovered that gin was consistently one of the most popular drink choices for both male and females in the brands target age bracket.
The audience liked a drink but don’t like the thought of getting older. We wanted to combine the best of both worlds, whilst also searching for the fountain of eternal youth.
This market insight led us to create a product exclusive to Warner which would enter into the UK’s anti-ageing scene with a bang – Anti-aGin.
The world’s first anti-ageing gin
We teamed up with culinary creators Bompass & Parr, to craft a unique drink. It had edible collagen and a mix of antioxidant botanicals to enhance anti-aging credentials.
TV presenter and stylist Nicky Hambleton Jones, strengthened the campaign, and credited the benefits of drinking edible collagen. As did the likes of Philip Schofield who chimed in on the conversation on Twitter.
In addition to stocking the gin at 13 Warner Leisure Hotels across the UK, the team approached online retailer, Drinksupermarket.co.uk, to stock the gin for online buyers, with limited stock to create a shopping frenzy.
We can say cheers to the results
