China: This Week In Digital Luxury Marketing

A roundup of new and ongoing campaigns in China through July 9, featuring Bomoda, Bayankala, Starbucks, Guess, Sephora, and Kiehl's. Bomoda and Bayankala This past weekend, luxury shopping newsletter site Bomoda launched a marketing campaign featuring Bayankala skincare products on WeChat. Participants were asked to enter keywords describing their skin problems (e.g., sensitive) and Bomoda would send them back a tailored product list. Participants would follow the directions of the product sheet they received and replied with their email addresses plus the keyword "detox" (paidu 排毒) to win a Bayankala skincare box set valued at RMB 3,286. Winners were announced on Monday. Starbucks As people are soaking themselves in the rays of summer, Mid-Autumn Festival is in fact approaching faster than anyone had anticipated. Starbucks China kicked off the preparation for the season of family reunions early, with a promotion entitled “The Art of Giving.” The campaign features the My Starbucks Rewards program and Starbucks Mooncake gift boxes. For participants who registered for My Starbucks Rewards on June 24 or earlier, surprise mooncake rewards were loaded onto their accounts. New participants who successfully register a new card (or add an existing account) from June 25 to September 18 receive a 10 percent off coupon for a mooncake gift box.
