Recently, Dettol has collaborated with Master
Chef Cooking Expert Mr. Sanjeev Kapoor who is endorsing brand Dettol hand wash
& Dettol kitchen Gel. This campaign is mainly targeting to women with the
purpose of:
(1) To keep
hand wash before preparing food by Dettol Hand wash liquid &
(2) Use
Dettol Kitchen Gel to keep utensil germs free and clean.

create in-depth awareness about healthy & hygiene kitchen by changing the
habit and being a cooking expert, brand has associated with Sanjeev Kapoor and Dettol

brand Dettol Hand wash as well as getting strong brand credential by
collaborating with Sanjeev Kapoor - being a cooking expert. It is also
indirectly communicating towards rival brands that keep utensils clean with germs
free rather than only spotless.
Dettol brand
association & endorser combination is perfect but, it just seems a lack of
impact & connectivity in campaign which could make wonderful strategically
and easily can fill the gap by penetration. Always need to consider &
emphasize more on connectivity & effectiveness whenever the matter of
shifting the trend or changing consumers habit.
