The campaign objective was to drive volume using the AXE BLACK variant as the hero for the campaign.
What better way to introduce AXE BLACK by highlighting the bodyspray (black can) and the antiperspirant (white can) than by giving away two Audi S3s, a black Audi S3 to represent bodyspray and a white Audi S3 for antiperspirant?
A total of 188 863 entries came in hot and fast…fast track to 31st December 2015 and the competition was over as quickly as it began.We went through countless entries, which saw us select our 14 finalists who are all in line to win one of the two amazing Audi S3’s.
All fans had to do was buy any AXE product and follow the simple USSD string with their barcode to enter. After entering, users stood the chance of winning an instant airtime prize, along with a unique code, encouraging them to login or sign up on AXECESS.com and use their unique code to stand a chance to win ‘must-have’ monthly prizes, such as Nixon watches, Beats By Dre, Samsung Galaxy S5 smartphones and more. All prizes in black and white, of course!
Here are the 14 finalists for the two Audi S3's:
Merle February, Mosena Achiebolb,Rikesh Ramawtar, Sabbina Phehlukwyo, Fitzroy Magadla, Stanton Reddy, William Andrews, Mushaisao Rasimphi
