SUMMARY
We successfully launched U by Kotex® Fitness by challenging broad reaching and deeply embedded societal prejudices about menstruation which allowed Kimberly Clark to achieve 20% share of the active feminine care category. The result was impressive given that prior to the campaign the active feminine care category was already dominated by three major brands. Key to our success, was supporting women to ensure that a woman’s behavior and emotions are not misattributed to her period – especially in the world of sports where stigma is often prevalent.
