    Executive Summary

    The do-it-yourself home improvement landscape represents an industry that is quickly gaining momentum.This growth represents an opportunity for Walmart and Glidden to tap into a market with expandingpotential. Currently, only 66% of DIY consumers are aware of the fact that Walmart actually sells paint,while approximately 90% of DIY consumers are aware that home improvement centers sell paint. With thiscampaign, Glidden Brilliance strives to close this gap and build awareness around the fact that Walmart sellspaint at all 3,500 stores across the United States. (Glidden Case Study)

    We worked to gain deeper insights into the Walmart customers paint shopping experience. We mapped outthe different motivations for home improvement projects which described how to drive these consumersto consider the paint department as a destination for DIY projects. Through multiple research methods, weuncovered the subconscious motivation that fuels consumers to shop for paint. Being a category saturatedwith consistently shallow messaging concerning product features, we discovered a compelling point ofdifferentiation that will resonate with broad audiences. Our key insights uncovered the strong emotionalconnection between painting and the translation of your style and who you are into your space. Thetransformation of your house into your home is central to every painting or home improvement project.

    Our campaign will reach and engage with DIY consumers on a variety of media channels, directed speci callyat each segments media consumption habits and behavior. Through our dynamic and integrated strategy,we aim to reposition Walmart as a purveyor of paint, while at the same time, increasing consideration ratesfor purchasing Glidden Brilliance at Walmart.

    Since its founding in 1875, Glidden has contributed several innovations to the paint industry, including the rst latex-based paint in the 1940sand the rst environmentally friendly paint (low VOC) in the 1990s. However, in the beginning of the new millennium, Glidden began to loserelevance among consumers, threatening its position as the most widely distributed paint brand in the United States. Glidden experienced a

    40% drop in market share between 2003 and 2008, losing ground to more in-demand brands such as Benjamin Moore, Behr, Valspar, andSherwin Williams.

    Glidden renewed its commitment to consumers in 2009, grounding their rebranding on the principle of simplicity through product redesign,collateral material, color simpli cation, and paint aides. These modi cations instilled con dence and inspiration in consumers, motivatingthem to tackle home improvement projects. Proving that Glidden really does get you going, the brand took even bolder strides in 2010 byproducing a line of paints exclusively for Walmart called Glidden Brilliance. This replaced Sherwin Williams Dutch Boy brand paint which,combined with ColorPlace, sold 22 million gallons of paint annually.

    Through secondary research, we learned more about the home improvement shopping process and the paint selection process. As a whole,the paint category has a considerable lack of brand loyalty. Only 30% of consumers credit their experience with a paint product as a reasonfor selecting that brand again. However, home improvement specialty stores, like Home Depot and Lowes, have dominated paint sales withinthe market. Exclusive partnerships between paint brands and home improvement distributors, have been the stronghold of this success.Partnershipss, like the one between Behr and Home Depot, have taken advantage of quality customer service matched by quality paint tocreate a positive brand experience among customers. (JD Power & Associates) The paint market is dominated by product trends including2-in-1 paint and primer combinations and low-VOC paints. All paint brands offer these product varieties to cater to consumers utilitarianneeds. However, these trends fail to create a lasting connection with users.

    The partnership between Glidden and Walmart has not proven to be the lucrative endeavor that Glidden originally envisioned. Walmarts 140million visitors a week gives Glidden a large potential consumer base, however, inconsistencies in customer service and product displays haveprevented consumer interaction. By improving these sectors and capitalizing on the connectivity between Walmarts paint and home decordepartments, Glidden can close the perceptual gap, convincing consumers that Walmart is a go-to home improvement and design center.

    In reaction to the continuing economic recession, the do-it-yourself (DIY) trend has experienced a rise in popularity. As Americans becomemore budget-conscious, they have turned to DIY tools to complete home improvement projects. The DIY Paint Market generated $9 billionin sales in 2012, enjoying an overall increase of 10.27% from 2010. (Global Industry Analysts)

    Glidden has the opportunity to capitalize on the growing DIY trend by highlighting its simpler approach to the painting and shoppingprocesses.

    Situation Analysis

    The paint industry is currently enamored with color. Pantone Color Trends dominate the marketing efforts of Gliddens primarycompetitors: Behr, Sherwin Williams, Valspar, and Benjamin Moore. A focus on color fails to express the emotional experience of

    painting and rede ning ones home.

    METHODOLOGY

    Research Overview

    We set out to fully understand the target consumers cultural makeup, purchasingpower, and approach to inspiration, and their experiences with home improvement,life transformation, and the painting & shopping processes. The DIY market becamecrucial to the research because it is where the majority of Walmart shoppers exist.

    We explored research from a variety of secondary sources, including industry reports,news outlets, and generational segment reports, and used the aforementionedinsights to conduct a questionnaire and a series of in-depth interviews to gain a fullerunderstanding of the DIY landscape.

    We also conducted three focus groups that followed Clotaire Rapailles method ofuncovering the subconscious code for speci c products. Upon analyzing the results,we determined that the code for paint was self-establishment.

    Our primary and secondary research analyses also uncovered that consumers

    place high value on their living space, and that creating a sense of home was ofhigh importance despite their living circumstances (i,e, renting or owning ahouse). Transforming a living space into a home held the greatest potency amongrespondents.

    We also conducted a series of man-on-the-street interviews where we asked ourrespondents to ll in the statement, Home is... The key insight for this research tacticrevealed how respondents understood that home was a universal emotional concept.They de ned home in their own way, steeping with memories and unique experiences,and projecting a vivid image of the DIY landscape. Ultimately, our insights presentedan opportunity for Glidden Brilliances to help consumers rede ne their home.

    Customers are inspired to breathe new life into a static room. Mark, Walmart Employee, Bellingham, MA

    What do consumers look for in a paint brand?What does the process of painting mean to our target?What unites the segments and makes them distinct from other Walmart shoppers?What does DIY mean to the segments?

    Understanding that color dominates the current paint market, we wanted to gureout what the most important factor in selecting a paint brand is for shoppers. Inaddition to this, with DIY as a rising trend, we wanted to explore what inspires

    consumers to engage in projects of their own.

    Creative Brief

    BRANDINGGlidden needs to become more than just

    a logo to potential customers. In order totruly connect with its audience, Gliddensbranding needs to re ect whom thebrand is and why it is worthy of customerconsideration and loyalty. McMahon & Tatehas created a core value-based approach tobranding Glidden and genuinely connectingit to the motivational beliefs, values, andaspirations of the target segments. Theconnection to the brand and the consumeris then re ected in the Brand StrategyStatement and communicated through thebrands positioning.

    START WITH WHY (SHAREDBELIEFS): Painting is underscored by humanity The concept of home is uniquely

    personal Home communicates your personal style

    and re ects the essence of who you are

    ALIGN WITH HOW (SHAREDVALUES): Stylish Unconventional Highly individualized, yet family-focused Self-expressive Dependable DIY

    CONNECT WITH WHAT (THETRANSFERENCE OF VALUES TOTHE PRODUCT) Simple Accessible Quality Hassle Free A good value

    BRAND STRATEGY STATEMENT:Painting is more than selecting the colors, matching accentuating furnishings, or refreshing

    the walls of ones home. Painting is the rst step in the active transformation of where youlive to where life happens - of living space to home. Glidden believes that your house is notyour home until it bears the imprint of your unique style and re ects the essence of whoyou are. Glidden has created the Brilliance Collection - dedicated to taking that rst stepwith you. POSITIONING STATEMENT:Glidden Brilliance: Youre Home

    CAMPAIGN STRATEGY AND CREATIVE BRIEFOur primary research revealed that:The code for painting is self-establishment, whether its rede ning your identity in yourchildhood home, your rst apartment with roommates, or your house within the contextof your neighborhood.

    The concept of home is deeply personal and varies widely from person to person. However,all respondents expressed that home is a feeling and sense of familiarity , as it is a physicalstructure.

    Consumers are driven to purchase by the following price, ease of application, durability andcolor selection

    The competition is actively marketing to only two of these factors: Unique, expansive, andproprietary color palettes and two-in-one paint and primer products. A key revelationregarding the category is that any manufacturer has access to its competitors color recipes.This insight becomes the cornerstone of McMahon & Tates retail activation strategy.

    CREATIVE STRATEGY:Establishes phases of the campaign based on the Consumer Journey Funnel and intersectwith the consumer at each stage of the journey. At each intersection build on the targetsunderstanding and belief that Glidden is synonymous with home when it comes to paint. VOICE:All executions should communicate a sense of comfort and inner-familiarity deliveredthrough the voice of the everyday non-painter. The delivery can vary between fresh,unexpected, slightly quirky, but always honest and authentic.
