KFC Japan’s Bath Bomb Case Study.
Back last Christmas KFC in Japan launched – shall we say- a unique Christmas campaign offering consumer’s KFC Fried Chicken Bath Bombs.
Yes, we know, the end of that sentence is a lot to wrap your head around – but basically, the chain gave away a chicken-shaped bath bomb that made your water – and presumably you – smell like the Colonel’s secret herbs and spices.
And once submerged in your tub, it turned the water chicken color (not sure there is a crayon for that) and even bubbled to make your water resemble a deep fryer.
Bonus!
At any rate, they’ve recently released a case study of the campaign – so you if you didn’t see the original, you can see it now, as well as how it resonated with Japanese consumers – who have made KFC an integral part of their Christmas since the 1970’s.
