Executive Summary:
Hanes is the leading manufacturer of intimate apparel, coined the term, apparel essentials. Within this highly competitive sector, Hanes must act now to a capture burgeoning segment of the U.S. market before its competitors. Hanes is the go-to brand for many of its Latino customers, yet has lacked consideration for the booming Latino market that demonstrates rapidly rising buying power, as well as strong loyalties to trusted family brands. Univision is the leading Spanish-language media company in the United States. By utilizing Univision s television, Internet and mobile platforms, this aggressive media campaign will solidify the relationship between Latina Women and Hanes. Hanes will take advantage of additional opportunities for revitalizing the brand with new consumers in mind through Univision. The message: Hanes is the traditional, comfort, family brand that can be found in every home, every community, and is the brand of choice among Hispanic families that are living the American Dream yet rooted in their rich Latino heritage. Simple advertising imagery will depict Latino families and culture, along with celebrity spokespersons who appear often on Univision media. Creative promotions with retail partners will be used to engage and motivate Latino customers. Following the recommendations in this campaign will put Hanes on track to increase Hanes underwear sales by 8% from July 2012 to July 2013.

Target Market Profile

Audience
The primary audience is women 18-49, who are the main purchasers of family brands. These women live in multigenerational, blended families living together: mothers, fathers, grandparents, and children. They aren t considered wealthy, but grounded in the middle class. Women in this segment are also influenced by endorsements, Hispanic celebrity mom endorsements have a positive impact on Hispanic moms and offer a great vehicle to enhance and make the brand more memorable (Trivisonno, 2009). This will be beneficial in achieving Hanes Marketing Communication objectives. With advertising to multigenerational families we will create ads that are both in English and Spanish catering to the language needs of older family members and younger one. Culture drives the conversation between brands and Hispanic moms. Advertising in Spanish that features authentic cultural imagery has more impact than advertising in English for all Hispanic moms, regardless of level of acculturation (PR Newswire, 2009). Those who are in the primary audience are passionate about family. From sharing family meals to watching television, many activities are done as a family group. When it comes to visual representations of Hispanic moms, they prefer images of family and togetherness vs. individual pursuits (PR Newswire, 2009). They tend to adopt brands that are most recommended by trusted friends and family members (Travisonno, 2009).

24

Target Group: Influenced by

Celebrity influence is growing: In 2004, 23 percent of Latinas cited celebrities as a source of clothing ideas vs. 13 percent in 1994 (Latina Flavor, 2005). Hispanic celebrity mom endorsements have a positive impact on Hispanic moms and offer a great vehicle to enhance and make the brand more memorable (Trivisonno, 2009).

25

Target Group: Decision Making

Likely to respond to friendly advice, seek a second opinion and trust advice of family members (Latina Flavor, 2005). More likely to make in-store brand decisions for clothing. (HispanicCMO.com, 2010) Comparison shopping is common, both in-store and online (HispanicCMO.com, 2010). Hispanic moms like to be professional, practical and fashionable, but at the end of the day it is all about the family s well being, so family comes first (Trivisonno, 2009).
26

Target Group: Brand Sense

They consider it risky to buy a brand they are not familiar with and prefer to choose brands they recognize and trust (Travisonno, 2009). They tend to adopt brands that are most recommended by trusted friends and family members (Travisonno, 2009).

Key Problems, Insights, & Opportunities

Key Problems
Hanes does not currently market to the enormously growing Hispanic population in the U.S. Hanes is not presently taking advantage of interacting with consumers through mobile communication. Hanes is largely dependent on sales through Walmart, Target, and Kohl's, making them vulnerable to any influx of changes in their customers or store dynamics (Datamonitor, 2009).
30

Key Problems
Although Hanes spokesman Michael Jordan is a wellknown and adored athlete, the sport he represents, basketball, does not connect with soccer fans. This is important because soccer is the number 1 sport in the Hispanic community.

31

Key Insights & Opportunities

The Hanes is a family brand, offering a line of products for women, men, and children (Datamonitor, 2009). The brand s largest customers are Wal-Mart, Target, and Kohl s (Hanesbrands Inc., 2010, p. 6).

32

Key Insights & Opportunities

Some companies listed in the top ten advertisers to Hispanics/Latinos are Lexicon Marketing Corporation, Procter & Gamble Company, Univision Communications Inc., General Motors Corporation, Johnson & Johnson, McDonalds Corporation, and PepsiCo Inc.; there within lies an opportunity to work with them to reach this rapidly growing, and young segment (Hispanic/Latino Market Profiles, 2010, p. 17). Partner with Univision, which is among the top 10 Hispanic advertisers.

33

Key Insights & Opportunities

Hanes has a Comfort Rewards program that allows customers to also donate and support causes such as classroom projects through donorschoose.org (Comfortrewards.com, 2010). Hanes also currently has an outlet stores rewards program that can be used at any L eggs, Hanes Bali, Playtex, or Hanesbrands Outlet Store (Onehanesplace.com, 2010).

34

Key Insights & Opportunities

In 2010, Hanes conducted a national advertising campaign called For Future Generations along with an EcoSmart apparel line and greenfocused website featuring a new fleece apparel made in part from the equivalent of 25 million recycled plastic bottles, EcoSmart socks made of 55 percent recycled cotton fiber, and 67 percent of the classic men s and boy s undershirts made using renewable energy (Hanesbrands Inc., 2010). Hanes participates in a number of community initiatives, that benefit communities where employees live and work (Hanesbrands Inc., 2010). Hanes also focuses on efforts to ensure that communities receive great access to health, welfare and education services through improving the healthcare and wellness systems and educational programs in various communities including Bona, Domincan Republic; San Juan Opico, El Salvador; Winston-Salem, NC; Chaiyaphum Province, Thailand; and Vietnam (Hanesbrands Inc., 2010).

35

Key Insights & Opportunities

Hanes donated one million socks to The Salvation Army during a December 2010 Holiday Sock Drive launched to address the need for the no. 1 most-requested item at homeless shelters (Salvationarmy.com, 2010). Donation efforts for the sock drive were derived from the Hanes Facebook social networking page, donating one pair of socks for each person who liked the Hanes page and clicked Help Hanes Donate (Salvationarmy.com, 2010).

36

Key Insights & Opportunities

Hanes is the official apparel sponsor of fundraising program, Passionately Pink for the Cure, created by Susan G. Komen For the Cure (Hanesbrands Inc., 2010, p. 7).

37

Marketing Communications Objectives

Hanes = Family
Our project goal is to convince Hispanic women, 18-49, that Hanes is the best brand of underwear for their families because it is soft, reliable and familiar. Hanes is the traditional, comfort family brand that can be found in every home, every community. It is the brand of choice among Hispanic families who living the American Dream, while still rooted in their rich Latino heritage.
39

Campaign Objective: At Year s End 1. An 8% increase in sales will be achieved by tapping a growing market. 2. An increase in consumer interaction with the Hanes brand. 3. Hanes will gain brand awareness among the Hispanic community.

40

Communications Strategy
Convince U.S. Hispanic women, 18-49 that Hanes is the brand that suits their familyoriented lifestyle by creating and utilizing interactive platforms to enhance brand awareness among the target audience.

41

Key Strategies
Drive the target audience into key retail locations using promotions Create interaction with Hispanic consumers via mobile marketing and social media Utilize relatable images that appeal to Hispanic women and reflect their cultural values

42

Objective Rationale No. 1

To increase sales of Hanes products among the Hispanic demographic by 8% by the end of the 1year campaign. Rationale:
Hispanics in the United States are growing at a rapid rate. By 2013, the U.S. Hispanic populations is anticipated to grow to 54 million, a 17% increase from 2000 population numbers (U.S. Census Bureau, 2008).

43

Objective Rationale No. 2

To increase Hispanic consumers interaction with the Hanes brand by the end of the 1-year campaign. Rationale:
U.S. Hispanics are at the bleeding edge of social media, (Vann, 2011). Social media has experienced a burst in growth and is growing each day. Hanes needs to stay at the forefront by connecting with the demographic at the forefront of this growth.

44

Objective Rationale No. 3

To make Hanes the preferred brand of underwear for Hispanic women 18-49 and their families by the end of the 1-year campaign. Rationale:
Hanes has a variety of products to meet the needs and comfort of the whole family. They are affordable and quality products, from a familyfriendly, trustworthy brand. Hispanics are brand loyal, and they often adopt brands recommended by trusted friends and family (Trivisonno, 2009).

45

Key Selling Idea

Hanes is the traditional, comfort, family brand that can be found in every home, every community, and is the brand of choice among Hispanic families that are living the American Dream yet rooted in their rich Latino heritage.

46

Key Message
To position Hanes as a brand that cares about Hispanic families. Rationale:
Hispanic mothers consider their children and families the central focus of their lives. Shopping is a family affair, and bringing quality to their families is of most importance to them. Hispanics as a whole are more brand loyal, and prefer to buy a well known brand that they are familiar with (Trivisonno, 2009).
47

A Friendly Voice
The tone of voice is friendly and wise, because Hispanic women are likely to respond to friendly advice and tend to trust brands that are most recommended by friends and family and brands that they recognize and trust. The key points that are being communicated are family friendly, affordable, quality, and comfort. One sentence to get through all the clutter: Hanes is the traditional, comfortable and affordable family brand that offers quality needs to suit the needs of Hispanic Families.

48

Advertising, Media & Promotional Tools

Media Overview
The campaign will start on July 15, 2012 to coincide with back-to-school and will involve a tie-in partnership with leading retailer (i.e. Wal-mart, Target, or a department store). Campaign will feature an aggressive and ongoing presence on Univision Internet and mobile throughout the year. Supporting social media promotions will be ongoing throughout the year-long campaign.
50

Visual Goals
There are two main goals for the creative design. We want to keep a simplistic overall look that resonates comfort and familiarity. We also want to incorporate images of families, their individual members (mom, dad, etc.) and their activities, making Hanes and its positioning relatable to Hispanic families.

51

Family TV
The primary medium that will be used to reach the intended audience will be television. This is Univision s main outlet and has the greatest potential to reach our targeted audience. Watching television with the family is more commonplace in the Hispanic culture than other cultures which coincides with Hanes being a family brand. Celebrity spokesperson, such as telenovela star Itati Cantoral or singer Thalia will make promotional appearances on game, talk, and morning news shows.

Supporting Media Rationale: Interactive Connections

Research shows that young Hispanics are on the bleeding edge of technology. Heavy internet and social media usage shows these are effective media channels. These are also all interactive channels, aiding in Hanes efforts to reconnect with the Hispanic population. Facebook will be mainly used for banner ads and to create buzz about Hanes and promote interaction with its target audience. Twitter will be used to interact with and inform the target audience about the Hanes brand and to also interact with Univision to create a relationship that will cause the target audience to associate the two.
