Durex Social Strategy

Talking about sex in a fun and playful way:
the success story of Durex on social networks

From the beginning of 2012 Durex has chosen O-One for the management of its presence on social networks. The first goal set by the customer has been shaping a new tone of voice, fresh and spontaneous by talk of sex and everything that revolves around it. Our daily challenge is to tell Durex as a lifestyle brand.

Durex Social Strategy

Our first key action was build online brand presence and decline it with the proper tone of voice on social networks, trying to create empathy with the audience. Once gained the trust and sympathy of our fan base, we aimed to grow the community  cinvolving it with content that spoke of sexuality through metaphors and common figure of speech, but served in “Durex sauce".
