The Challenge
While Tom’s of Maine historically has been the sole OG of clean oral and personal care, now the category is busy with innovative D2C brands and cluttered by greenwashing. We had to break through that clutter to prove that clean products are effective and that Tom’s of Maine is authentic and value driven.
Our Strategy
Our data-driven creativity approach led to a strategy build on edutainment. Brand equity storytelling, product performance storytelling and lifestyle moments are expressed in ways that both educate and inspire the consumer.
