Week 8: Real Beauty Sketches Fit 1. What fit, if any, is there between the Real Beauty campaign and Dove? The brand Dove is a product that is widely accepted as it is trusted to be and is a milder soap that soothes your skin instead of leaving your skin harsh and affected with the hard beauty soaps that use palm oil on a higher scale; that was one of the main ingredients for several other brands. Dove is claimed to be one quarter of cleansing cream because the company has and still assures you to have a soother skin with its product. As far as the Real Beauty Campaign and Dove having a fit, I would say that there is a fit. Because, in the campaign it is highlighting on how we as women physical view ourselves and how we take care of ourselves, so if we see ourselves as beautiful, we would not be so harsh on ourselves and would make some quality decisions while using the soaps and some other daily products we use just to protect our skin and beauty (Mata et al., 2018). The campaign aims to challenge beauty stereotypes and promote inclusivity, which aligns with Dove's brand values of celebrating diversity and self-acceptance. The campaign emphasizes the importance of embracing and appreciating one's natural beauty, which is reflected in Dove's products and messaging. According to Dove's website, the Real Beauty campaign has been a central part of their brand for many years, demonstrating their commitment to empowering individuals and redefining beauty standards. 2. Does it possess any of the factors of a strategic CSR initiative (centrality, specificity etc.) The Real Beauty campaign by Dove possesses several factors of a strategic CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) initiative.
Centrality : The campaign is central to Dove's brand identity and values. It is not just a one-time effort but has been an ongoing and integral part of Dove's marketing and messaging for many years. Specificity: The campaign specifically focuses on challenging beauty stereotypes, promoting inclusivity, and encouraging self-acceptance. It addresses a specific social issue related to beauty standards and body image. Authenticity: Dove's commitment to the Real Beauty campaign is authentic and long-term. The brand has consistently advocated for positive body image and self-esteem, and the campaign aligns with Dove's overall mission and values. Stakeholder Engagement : The campaign actively engages with various stakeholders, including consumers, by encouraging them to redefine beauty standards and embrace their natural beauty. It creates a dialogue and fosters a sense of community around the issue. 3. Do you think this has the potential of creating shared value? Creating shared value involves aligning business goals with societal needs, and the Real Beauty campaign does just that. By promoting positive body image and self-acceptance, Dove not only enhances its brand reputation but also contributes to the well-being of its consumers and society as a whole. And by addressing this through various workshops and other programs which are an extension of the campaign, Dove is truly sharing the value and creating a change since the establishment and till today it is one such brand which 100’s of people is buying with no uncertainty on what they are advertising. Moreover, the campaign encourages a shift in societal attitudes towards beauty standards, which can lead to increased self-confidence and improved mental health among individuals. It also fosters a sense of empowerment and inclusivity, creating a positive social impact
