THE KEY INSIGHT

 

 

Chinese Canadian consumers may face challenges in finding household appliances that align with their lifestyle and dietary preferences. However, as Panasonic is a well-known brand in China, many members of our target audience are already familiar with it. Moreover, Panasonic offers premium products that cater to the specific needs of Chinese audiences. For instance, Panasonic Rice Cooker is a highly sought-after item as rice is a staple food for our primary target audience. It is designed to understand how Chinese rice is cooked, preserving the quality and taste of the rice.

 

THE BIG IDEA

THE EXECUTION

 

To maintain the interest of followers and expand their numbers, it is crucial for every community to continually produce content. To achieve this, we conducted research on the online behavior of Chinese Canadians and analyzed Panasonic Canada’s sales data to identify the products they prefer.

We then began creating culturally relevant content that incorporated these preferred products to engage our target audience.

Additionally, we invested a small budget to purchase media on various Chinese social media platforms to increase awareness of our official WeChat page and drive traffic to it. Collaborating with popular content creators on WeChat also helped promote the launch of the Panasonic Canada WeChat page.

 

THE RESULTS

 

The campaign was highly successful, achieving 1.3 Million+ impressions with a CTR rate of 0.38% in just one month, exceeding the expected impressions.

The creative thought behind the campaign inspired all other communication media and was adapted into various deliverables.Overall, the campaign was a successful multicultural national campaign.
