STRATEGIES INTERNATIONAL TO UPDATE HAIR CARE PACKAGE DESIGNS FOR REVLON
Re-branding Products is the Right Challenge for Strategies International

OutrageousTORONTO, ON (November 26, 2003) – Branding and design company, Strategies International, has been hired by Revlon Canada to apply their knowledge of branding consumer products to the Revlon line of hair care products. The major task facing Strategies International is to modernize the packaging for the beauty aid giant in 2004.

"We were impressed by Strategies International’s client list and the numerous sectors they have worked in," says Mike Muyal, Brand Development Manager of Revlon Canada. "We believe that their experience and know-how will keep our brands’ message consistent and maintain our equity. When we launch the new design in early 2004, we have confidence that the packaging will give the product line a boost.

Research in Canada shows that there are three key motivators to purchase specific hair care brands:

  • Affordability relative to its benefit,
  • How it will make the user’s hair smell and,
  • The reputation of the company.
These points will be addressed by Strategies International before the creative process begins.

"We think in terms of shelves and our clients trust us to do so," says Greg Bérubé, president of Strategies International. "The Revlon projects will be a challenge we look forward to because of the large equity that their brands have built over the last decade. To redesign packaging usually means risking a portion of this equity with long-time users. Initial research indicates, not only a strong chance that Revlon will retain current brand equity, but in fact, there will also be an increase in market share and brand recognition."
