SUMMARY
The Discover Winterful campaign kick-started Target's transformation from a struggling Discount Department Store into a quality fashion brand. We reversed a 10-year decline to lift sales of Womenswear by 8.47% YOY, with no significant change to the product designs that were advertised and sold the previous year.
Proving the power of advertising to change perceptions (when the reality stays much the same), our winter campaign lifted Target’s perceived style, quality and value, surpassed all sales targets and began the rebuild of an iconic Australian brand.
