Dove launched a marketing campaign called "Campaign for Real Beauty" to promote positive body image. The campaign features ordinary women rather than models and aims to build women's self-esteem. Dove's parent company Unilever generates over €51 billion in annual sales from brands in over 190 countries. Market research shows most women are dissatisfied with their appearance and Dove aims to address this issue through advertising, websites, billboards, and panel discussions to promote its message.
