Marketing Moment:
Old Spice: "Smell Like a Man, Man"
“Look at your man. Now look at me. Now back at your man. Now back to me.”

TL;DR
Having failed to successfully rebrand back in the late 90’s and early 2000’s, Old Spice was rapidly losing market share to Lynx (‘Axe’ in certain markets).
Their biggest issue: Old Spice marketed their product to an aging population, which resulted in diminishing returns in the long term. They needed a way to return to their previous position as a major competitor.
To completely rebrand Old Spice as a product for a younger audience, the marketing strategy found its major focus in one key fact: 60% of body wash purchases were made by women.
Instead of focusing solely on young males as their target audience, Wieden + Kennedy switched things up and made young females the major focus of the campaign.
The Results
Old Spice quickly rose to become the top men’s body wash brand in the USA
300% increase in website traffic
Sales of Old Spice had doubled by July of the same year
1.2 billion earned media impressions
The campaign won several awards, including the Cannes Lion Film Grand Prix and an Emmy for Outstanding Commercial.
