Brand Profile: GARNIER


History

The story began when Alfred Armour Garnier, a young French chemist, created in 1904 the first branded product, a hair tonic that used natural ingredients (plant extracts), launched at a time when people used soap to wash hair. GARNIER then launched shampoos and conditioners, which were advertised in women's magazines and soon became popular. The brand began to expand its product line in 1936 when it was the first to produce a line of sunscreen products for skin. This allowed to expand the line of skin care with the launch of products made with natural ingredients and fruit extracts.


In the 60s, the GARNIER was the first manufacturer to market a complete line of hair dyes for home use. The success of this product, especially in Europe and the United States, drew the attention of the French company L'Oréal, which bought the lab in 1965. Until then, GARNIER had a line of products targeted hair care and skin care.

Products
Garnier currently has three product lines: Fructis, Nutrisse and Nutritionist. Fructis, started in 1996, is the Garner line of haircare and styling products. Nutrisse, Garnier's hair color line released in 2002, was originally called Natea when it debuted in 1998. Natea wasn't as successful in the United States as in Europe, hence the name change. Garnier started selling Nutritionist, its skincare product line, in 2005.

Innovation
Besides introducing Alfred Garnier's hair tonic in 1904, when people still used soap on their hair, Garnier has been the first to produce sun-care items (in 1936) and the first to make a permanent home hair color (in 1960). Today Garnier is the number-one brand in Europe using natural ingredients.

Logo
GARNIER recently changed its branding with the launch of a new logo, a concept that is more aligned with the roots of the brand: nature coupled with technology.

Ask.com has a updated Q&A format - moves toward social search engine

With the endless streams of information offered to consumers online, two trends are clearly emerging: searchers are looking for more specific answers, and they trust word-of-web recommendations from friends on social sites. With this in mind, marketers may be interested in Ask.com's latest move, which aims to set the search portal apart with a Q&A format that lets trusted users determine the most relevant results.

Ask.com is not the only search engine that sees value in Q&A formats to give relevant, social results to discerning users. Current leaders of the search market all offer some form of social search - such as Google's Aardvark or Yahoo Answers.

The award-winning campaign of Old Spice is also a sales success

"The man your man Could smell like", the famous Old Spice campaign created by Wieden + Kennedy is not only is accumulating very remarkable viewing figures online, but has also led to an increase Sales in the U.S market.

Former NFL player Isaiah Mustafa has made the Old Spice Man a household name, but how many households own Old Spice products was the question on marketers' minds. It seems the social marketing campaign surrounding "the man your man could smell like" is a viable MVP for Proctor & Gamble as the company is seeing major revenue lifts this year.

According to Nielsen, sales of Old Spice Body Wash—the line touted in the Wieden + Kennedy-created campaign—rose 11 percent over the past 12 months and since the effort broke in February, sales seem to be gaining momentum.

Once upon a time...

Lacoste is paying a tribute to its heritage by launching a lovely online pop-up book dedicated to the brand’s founder, René Lacoste. The online project features visual life-story of one of the most important figures in tennis history, starting from his early years.
The story is split into 6 chapters, and each of them tells (in English) about really notable events in the biography of the brand’s founder and the label itself as well.
