This document outlines a marketing strategy for Sunsilk hair care products. It involves 4 major tasks: Notice, Involve, Act, and Share. To accomplish these, the strategy proposes increasing brand awareness through various media like TV, print, outdoor, and digital advertising. Specific tactics include product placements in movies and shows for attention, experiential marketing like road shows, and blogs/videos to generate conversations. The goal is to position Sunsilk as an expert in hair care that can provide solutions for all hair types and problems. Frequency and reach will be maximized through continuous exposure across different media forms over a 2 month period.
