LITTLE SHOPPING HORRORS: FASHION



OVERVIEW


BBC Three were making a documentary exploring the phenomenon of ‘pester power’ – the extent to which branding, marketing and advertising can compel children to pester their parents into buying branded goods for them.

They needed a brand communications and advertising agency to develop a fictional brand and market it successfully to a target group of young people.

They chose our team and, for several weeks, we went about our work whilst being followed by a BBC camera crew.

By the time the programme went to air, the non-existent fashion brand we’d marketed (named 'SO') was as popular among our target group as Nike and GAP.
