THE CHALLENGE

Reversing the trend

The advance of online sales and the phenomenon of "fast fashion" makes us buy more and, generally, with less quality. As a consequence, we produce more garbage. 

Wallapop has a clear challenge: to increase the circularity of second-hand products, extending their useful life and reducing waste production.

The second-hand market should cease to be "second-hand"

The second-hand market has many bargains and opportunities for consumers, but it is still haunted by a stigma that works against it. How can this be addressed?

THE SOLUTION

An unexpected surprise

The wow effect was key to change this stigma. 
From the Wallapop team, it was decided to position the second-hand product in a privileged place: a Wallapop pop-up store in Madrid's Barrio de Salamanca.
However, there was a catch. 

Making a difference

The great challenge of this campaign was also twofold: to create notoriety without referring to a specific brand and to effectively capture and impact this large base, generated in PR, so that Wallapop would grow. 

To go further, we had the ambition to amplify this action with two clear principles: to generate relevance at scale and that every euro invested would have an impact on circularity. 

To this end, we redefined the brand messages in these territories, which allowed us to get closer to the consumer in each channel.

2023

Wallapop decides in 2022 to challenge compulsive consumption and boost its core business: the sale of second-hand products.
An ephemeral store is opened to help change the perception of second-hand products and to have media repercussions.
We redefined all brand messages for this campaign and designed a media mix to optimize branding and performance.
The event is a success and combined with an AO performance strategy, the total investment per new customer is reduced by 60% without penalizing volume.
