VERDURA
Relaunching
a brand so upscale,
it was almost a secret
PROBLEM: So upscale yet so obscure --- most Verdura owners inherited
this distinctive fine jewelry and even they had no idea the company was
still in business. Sold exclusively in a Fifth Avenue showroom.
SOLUTION: Create
a buzz using the history of Verdura and some innovative media placement – including
a teaser campaign that did not show product. Premium position in a
100% newspaper plan at the outset (NY
Times, NY Post, NY Observer)
RESULTS: Created an enormous buzz and led to eventual opening of Verdura
boutiques.
