Lamisil in-store promo
Stop the spread!
Fight foot fungus!
Challenge
To highlight Lamisil as the most effective cure for athlete’s foot, yet with a limited media budget.
Solution
In cooperation with InterSport, we placed a series of infected shoes in quarantine cages, complete with hidden speakers playing ‘infection’ sounds, in the sport section of their retail shops. The action successfully targeted people as the pursued their sport hobbies – those activities where the chance of catching athlete’s foot is highest.
Result
The action only began in April and is still running. However all samples and flyers were taken within the first dew days and in-store response has been fantastic.
Terbinafine hydrochloride (Lamisil in Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, Hungary, Mexico, Romania, United Kingdom, and United States, also sold under the name Terbisil) is a synthetic allylamine antifungal. It is highly lipophilic in nature and tends to accumulate in skin, nails, and fatty tissues. As a generic it is sold under the name Zabel in Australia. It is now also available as a generic in the United States.
Terbinafine is mainly effective on the dermatophytes group of fungi.
As a 1% cream or powder it is used for superficial skin infections such as jock itch (Tinea cruris), athlete’s foot (Tinea pedis) and other types of ringworm (Tinea corporis).
