I want to wear and have to keep hunting for clothes that cover everything.”

OF PEERS
- These young woman are at an age group where `what people think’ matters tremendously
to them
- As their worlds are still relatively small, things affect them much more strongly and
are harder to let go of
Hence social embarrassement is something that they will do anything to avoid
WHAT SHE SAID...
“Girls with body odour in our class are made fun of and no one
wants to sit next to them.”
“Sometimes my friends point out when I have not waxed and
it’s so embarrassing.”
“Once you have done something stupid, you are teased about
it for a long time and friends never let you forget it.”

In Conclusion
While we found rational solutions to appeal to the head of the value
conscious sanitary napkin consumers, we realised that there was also
an opportunity to connect with them emotionally
-as it was by appealing to the heart that we would
form a sustainable relationship.
And in order to do that, Whisper needed to reinforce its position as the market
leader by setting the gold standards in the category.
Hence we proposed the following three additional concepts
Tough
Under
Pressure
Increasing competition faced by young woman today, acts as positive pressure for them
to push harder and in order to do their best they need the best
Presenting revolutionary sanitary pads from Whisper Ultra Clean,
which just like their users are ‘Tough under pressure’
That is because our products undergo some of the most rigorous torture tests to ensure that
they provide 100% guaranteed protection from period worries
Compliments
your
Inner Strength
Invisibility of the category is a big hurdle for spending more and also makes
brand switches harder
We believe that external perceptions can be deceptive and it
is inner strength that matters
Hence what may seem as a thin, invisible pad, is an innovation whose core
has tremendous `Inner Strength’ that compliments that of its user,
without reminding them of its existence
For you,
With you
As a brand that has been in the business of understanding women for decades, Whisper believes
that not every woman has the same expectations from her pads
Hence Whisper wants to help each individual in her own journey to become unstoppable
By providing its potential consumers with a personalized period experience by
co-creating certain products with them
