At the end of last year, Babbel has indeed given a whole new orientation to its business strategy by : step away from the sales pitches pure and hard to make room for the storytelling and make the emotions in the first place. It is as well to inspire in each one the desire to learn a new language. This change bold has already begun to bear fruit. Our new advertising campaign, designed by the Brand Team of Babbel in collaboration with the renowned agency Wieden + Kennedy, won a victory far more important than the previous campaigns, which focused on the integration of call-to-action.
The first two commercials, aimed at the learning of English and French, were published for the first time in the fall of 2016 and have given the kick-off to this new marketing strategy. The two new spots, this time concern the Spanish and the Italian. They put in scene, with a lot of humor, and a bit of provocation, and the benefits that it has to speak a foreign language. The protagonists find themselves in particularly difficult situations, inspired by scenes from famous movies, and eventually get out thanks to the language skills that Babbel has enabled them to acquire. We see and know only a little of the local language may be important, even vital.
“Our strategy has borne fruit,” said Arne Schepker, director of marketing at Babbel. “The inventiveness and relevance of the new advertising spots, prevail on the results obtained with the direct marketing and goes above and beyond, imposing a global brand across all of our markets. And this, in spite of a scenario of a duration of 27 seconds, with little call-to-action. In the last few months, we have seen a steady increase and sustainability of our organic traffic. This is reflected in the growing awareness of our brand, but also in our sales figures : we are developing more quickly than before. ”
The social media engagement has also increased since the launch of our campaign of integrated communication. The creative approach to storytelling, which aims to touch viewers, to involve them emotionally and not rationally, has had a strong impact. With these two new spots, Babbel continues its turnaround successful, abandoning the strategy of direct marketing to focus on the image of its brand in order to create a lasting impact.
