Residential Elevator Campaign · July 27 – Sept 30, 2026

Make fresh breath an everyday essential.

Reach competitive, lapsed and non-oral-care consumers where the habit forms — at home, every day — and right beside the stores that sell Listerine. An easy, on-the-go tear–swish–clean ritual, brought to life in the elevator.

The objective

Shift perception — from fresh-breath fix to everyday essential.

Many consumers only reach for Listerine for fresh breath, or not at all. We reposition Listerine Mouthwash Packets as a convenient, enjoyable, alcohol-free whole-mouth clean for 1–2x daily use — before and after coffee, ahead of every close-up moment — and we drive that message toward measurable lift at Shoppers Drug Mart and Walmart.

Who

The non-believers

Competitive, lapsed and non-oral-care consumers who don't yet see Listerine as part of the daily routine — across all ages, genders and incomes.

The moment

The one screen they can't scroll past

Residential elevators are a captive, daily, dwell-time moment — the ideal place to build a new habit and reinforce the tear–swish–clean ritual on the way out and back home.

Audience · Option A

Built on behaviour — not guesswork.

We isolated consumers who over-index on behaviours and attitudes that predict Listerine adoption — then concentrated the buy against the buildings where they live.

Use toothpaste for breath freshening
“Because of my busy lifestyle I don't take care of myself as well as I should”
Recently consumed coffee
“My confidence is greatly enhanced when I know I look my best”

Audience built from consumers who over-index on any of the above. Source: Vividata.

buildings sit within a 3km Walmart / 2km Shoppers radius.

Option B concentrates the buy right next to the shelves that stock Listerine — trimmed to the closest, highest-proximity buildings and measured end-to-end with foot-traffic attribution to both retailers.

Possible Future Campaign

Bigger, bolder — when there's runway.

Two higher-impact static concepts need production lead time and can't be built for the July 27 start. If the client is open to it, they could run a later August / September flight. Estimated pricing — not part of the Option A / B totals.
