Celebrity Brand Ambassador
Gillette & Johnny Damon
Client Objectives
Gillette wanted to introduce Gillette M3Power, a micro-powered shaving system that stimulates hair away from the skin to provide a closer shave.
Increase consumer awareness of new shaving technology.
Encourage Gillette users to buy their new product and non-Gillette users to switch product brand.
Steiner Sports Solution
Johnny Damon, the Boston Red Sox center fielder, had grown a full beard since the American League Championship Series, and was known around baseball as the “Caveman.”
Steiner engineered a creative opportunity by pairing Gillette with Damon.
Program
On May 21, 2004, in Boston, Gillette held the event in which Johnny Damon was given a clean shave by a local salon.
For Damon’s participation, Gillette donated money to the Boston Public Library children’s literacy program.
Results
723 placements.
95 million media impressions.
