Tonies: Launching The Must-Have New Toy

Challenge

A household name in Europe and the US, kids’ audio device Tonies needed a social strategy to enter the Australian and New Zealand market to drive awareness, proof and demand.

Solution

A unified comms and social strategy was developed to tap into emotional nostalgia, showcase real-life benefits and leverage parent and educator recommendations, in a category where word-of-mouth and advocacy was essential.

A key pillar was UGC-driven storytelling, where we activated early adopters who had discovered the brand overseas to become launch ambassadors, partnered with 150+ content creators to showcase Tonies in action and captured in-store events to further fuel brand excitement, generating a consistent stream of UGC content.
