BrandTailors strategic brand consulting and design firm marks another premiere on the Romanian branding market, by developing the brand activation program for Peak. It is the firms third program of the sort to successfully delineate its portfolio.
Following the unprecedented acclaim of brand activation campaigns developed and implemented for brands like Rarul and Naturlich, of which the first was awarded the only Romanian Effie ever won by a Romanian branding agency, BrandTailors returns to sign its third similar program for Interstar Chims Peak brand. BrandTailors latest campaign underlies the brand repositioning program developed for Peak, thusly emphasizing the defining characteristics of the brand, favoring its positioning within the category and more significantly within the consumers life.

For the re-launch of Peak, we had in mind a media and communication strategy that would help raise the brands relevance amidst the consumers, in a distinctive and memorable way. The brief given to the agency focused on three important requests: the communication of the new brand positioning, the announcement of innovative products in Peaks portfolio and the avoidance of certain recurrent clichs within the toilet care products category: desperate ladies, dirty toilets, miracle products, cartoon characters. BrandTailors successfully addressed these requests, hence Peak asserts Stop dirtiness! with full honesty. Daniela Plcintaru Marketing Manager Interstar Chim Romania

The Peak activation campaign was enacted by means of a TV commercial having its storyline built on the opposition between the pleasant and easy way of bathtub cleaning and the cleaning of the toilet shown as a true home-keeping endeavor. This accounts for the personified toilets feelings of neglect. Peak puts an end to such a tense situation, highlighting the easy and efficient proof of its use. Peak is thus brought forward as the toilet guardian the key element that turns toilet cleaning from a necessary and important activity into a carefree and pleasant one. The commercial ends with the depiction of the toilet in a majestic role, while the brands video signature introduces Peaks visual identity as a guarantee for the reestablishment and maintenance of the toilets utmost hygiene.

The consistency of this brand activation campaign is, in fact, a premiere in the toilet care products category and symbolizes the prevalence of a relevant and coherent brand promise. In Peaks case, the product benefits are meant to support and found the brand promise of saying Stop dirtiness! in all its forms. Andreea Florea Brand Strategy Coordinator

Furthermore, Peaks brand personality powerful, vigilant and protective is accentuated by means of the outline of its tone-of-voice, determined and trustworthy, as well as familiar and mild.

It was only vital for the first activation campaign of the brand, following the rebranding program, to continue the process led by the new visual identity and package design creation. Setting the brand foundations and communicating its new positioning as transparently as possible were crucial, leading us to face a double challenge since the communication campaigns objectives pointed toward the brands rejuvenation as well as the launch of new products.
