New Media Age

Mindbubble, branding and web creative developed by BCC,  is Face Group’s online co-creation community for the historically challenging to target 25-50 female market. The innovative tool was included in a very informative article on the New Media Age website earlier this month. It included Mindbubble as an example of an effective tool that brands can use to collaborate and connect with their consumers, something we at BCC strongly believe is the future for brand development.

The article discusses strong examples of how brands are successfully using all sorts of social networks and communities to close the void between themselves and their target market:

Other FMCG brands are experimenting with tapping into third-party communities. Mindbubble, an online community aimed at women aged 25 to 50, was launched in May 2009 by co-creation agency Face, allowing collaboration with brands on product development and marketing.

Aquafresh, Boots, Comfort and Surf have been involved in piloting the concept. “It provides a platform for exploring ideas more dynamically, building on consumer feedback iteratively with input from various people internally as well,” says Joel Dawson, head of digital marketing at Boots UK. “This approach has proved to be a useful tool for product innovation and has provided us with a number of ideas which are currently being brought to market.

Face Group Online

Face Group briefed Blow to develop a creative for their website that would encapsulate their unique service offering – Co-creation. Blow brainstormed a number of ideas and then moved to develop and refine the chosen route of an ‘air-fix kit’. This analogy fitted perfectly with the Face brand proposition and the website is truly impactful and refreshing.
