Marketing That Matters: Vaseline, Heritage and the Power of Insight
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
The challenge for many leading brands is staying relevant in categories where functional claims and pricing pressure can erode brand value. As part of our Effie Awards South Africa series, which explores marketing and advertising effectiveness with leading marketers and advertising trailblazers, I spoke to Elizabeth Mokwena, Executive Marketing Director at Unilever, about why emotion still matters.
Conversation Highlights
- Emotion as a driver of marketing effectiveness
- How Vaseline’s “Mntana ka Gogo” refreshed a heritage brand
- Parallels with Pete Case and Ogilvy’s international Vaseline collaboration
- Finding universal human truths leads to universally compelling big ideas
Produced in collaboration with our partners, Soweto Media.
