Most of the time, enhancing product sustainability equals margin dilution.
That's the insight I gained from a recent chat with the Marketing Director of a hygiene sector FMCG giant.
But there are solutions. 💡
One is to boost product desirability through various means (storytelling, packaging, emotional appeal, etc.). 📖🎁❤️Many brands are fervently experimenting, as highlighted by Delphine Parois from Strategir in one of her latest interesting talks.
#Decathlon and #BlablaCar are diligently working to enhance the allure of their offerings.
#Patagonia and #Ikea are other prominent examples.

#Fairphone, on the other hand, has successfully persuaded consumers to compromise on functionality in favor of sustainability. 📱♻️
More recently, the sustainability-focused promise of #CoffeeB in a category where brand image and desirability are pivotal will be fascinating to follow. ☕🌱

What's next?
Will we soon see the first perfume or luxury watch brands built solely around a sustainability promise?
This would align the brands' sustainable and profit agendas.Which brand do you think will take this daring step next?#sustainability#fmcg#marketing#youmakeitfly#youmakeadifference🚀
