2. Brand Development Goals

2.1 Positioning the Company as an Environmental Conservation Advocate

   The company aims to enhance its image as a supporter of environmental conservation, aligned with its mission to combat climate change and achieve the "Net Zero" goal. This will be a key selling point to attract environmentally conscious customers. Campaigns promoting products and packaging that focus on "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" will not only encourage customer participation but also clearly demonstrate the brand's commitment to sustainability. This approach will differentiate the brand from competitors, making it stand out as a leader in eco-friendly practices.

2.2 Building Brand Credibility through Environmental Partnerships

    Collaborating with environmental organizations will boost the brand’s credibility and expand valuable relationships with partners, creating a positive social impact. These partnerships can strengthen the brand's image and reinforce its commitment to sustainability.

2.3 Increasing Brand Awareness

    Raising brand awareness is a crucial goal that can be achieved through unique campaigns and targeted communication. Engaging with the target audience, especially through online platforms, will enhance the brand’s visibility and ensure it reaches a broader audience.

3 Target Audience

Target Audience:

1. General individuals who want to use wireless earphones.

2. General individuals aged 15 and above.

Secondary Target Audience:

1. Individuals who support environmentally friendly products.

2. Individuals with a creative mindset or a passion for design.

4. Packaging Design Concept

The packaging for electronic devices is made from 3-layer corrugated cardboard (E-flute), which is fully recyclable and environmentally friendly. It naturally decomposes without causing pollution and avoids incineration or landfill methods that release harmful gases into the atmosphere. 

In addition to protecting the product, the packaging can be repurposed as a case for wireless 

earphones. This multifunctional design allows consumers to fold the box into an earphone case, promoting reuse, reducing waste, and maximizing material efficiency. 

Furthermore, the packaging offers a personalized experience, allowing customers to creatively design or decorate their earphone case, making it unique and adding value to the product by involving users in the design process.

5 Marketing Activities and Brand Development through Packaging: Waste Reduction Campaign

This campaign is designed to promote sustainability and environmental responsibility through the recycling of wireless earphone packaging that can be folded into a case. There are two key marketing activities in this campaign:

1. Campaign: Old Thing for the New Ones

   The "Old Thing for the New Ones" campaign promotes the recycling of wireless earphone packaging. Customers can return used packaging at designated collection points in major shopping malls across big cities. The returned packaging will be recycled into new products, reducing waste and creating a sustainable usage cycle. 

   The goal of this campaign is to enhance the brand's image as environmentally conscious, while also giving customers a sense of contribution toward waste reduction and environmental protection. Additionally, the brand aims to provide a positive shopping experience by offering discounts and exclusive benefits to customers who participate in the recycling program. A portion of the profits from sales will be used for charity and social initiatives, making customers feel that their purchases contribute to both environmental and social causes.

2. Campaign: Buy 1 Get 2

   This campaign focuses on value and creative design, as the wireless earphone packaging is designed to be easily folded into a case. Customers receive both the earphones and the case for a single price, offering more value without the need to purchase an additional case. 

   This campaign also enhances customer engagement through a QR code on the packaging. Scanning the code takes customers to a website showcasing popular designs from other customers, where they can vote, comment, and follow new design trends. This creates a sense of community and participation in an online environment.

   The goal of this campaign is to communicate the brand’s creativity in designing functional packaging that adds value. Folding the packaging into an earphone case not only reduces resource use but also increases convenience and usability for customers. Additionally, the QR code provides access to assembly instructions, recycling drop-off locations, and updates on new designs or promotions, further strengthening the bond between customers and the brand, and making them feel part of a community.

Building an Online Community

This campaign focuses on encouraging customer participation in assembling the packaging into an earphone case. Customers are invited to take photos or videos of themselves assembling and using the packaging, then share them on social media with a designated hashtag. In addition to assembling the case, the brand adds uniqueness to the campaign by allowing customers to design custom patterns on the case, making each one unique.

This personalized design process not only adds fun but also gives customers a sense of involvement in the creative process. The ability to design their own earphone case makes customers feel that their product is unique and special, leading to an emotional connection between them and the brand. 

Moreover, sharing photos and videos of the assembly and design process on social media helps spread the brand's message, increasing brand awareness through authentic user experiences. This creates opportunities for the brand to be recognized and connected with new customers.

6. Performance Tracking Methods for Each Campaign

Here’s a summary of the tools and methods used to track the performance of each campaign:

1) Measuring the "Buy 1, Get 2" Campaign with UTM Parameters

   - UTM Parameters are added to the URL to track traffic from QR codes on the earphone cases.

   Advantages:

   1.1 Clear tracking of campaign performance.  

   1.2 Ability to measure the effectiveness of QR codes by tracking where customers scan from.  

   1.3 The data collected helps refine and improve marketing strategies for better efficiency.

2) Measuring Online Community Engagement

   - Use social media marketing metrics to assess user interaction with product content on different platforms. Key metrics include:  

     - Number of likes  

     - Number of shares  

     - Number of comments  

     - Click-through rate  

     - Average time spent on the page  

     - Engagement rate  

     - Number of followers

3) Measuring the "Old Thing for the New Ones" Campaign  

   - Track the weight of recycled materials to determine the quantity and volume of items being reused.

This data will be used to improve and further develop future campaigns.
