Barbie’s marketing strategy unlocked: Learn how it is making big moves & you can also do it for your brand.

“Barbie!” We used to scream whenever we wanted a new doll for the doll house that we had beautifully set up in our playroom in our homes. 

“What cherishable childhood days” they were; we know you all had gone back to those memories when Barbie used to be the queen of her castle; she used to have her king-sized bed, classic wardrobe, a great job, glamorous home and a lot more. 

The good news is you can cherish those golden moments of your childhood by watching a full-fledged movie, “Barbie,” which is hitting the theatres on coming Friday, apart from taking out those kids’ toys from your old trunk. 

Excited? We are too, but what’s super interesting is Barbie’s marketing strategy to turn the movie into a huge success!

Sounds interesting, right? Let Webeasts, the best digital marketing agency, reveal the secret sauce to Barbie’s marketing strategy!

Let’s begin the fun!

According to experts, Barbie has clearly used a “Repositioning” strategy for its movie promotion.

Repositioning is not simply” putting a product from one place to another” 😛 – In marketing terms and simple language (We know you love simple ?), repositioning strategy means “changing the way customers perceive a brand/product/service.” 

Yeah, we are giving an example below because we know an example makes it a lot easier to understand ?

For instance, earlier “Barbie “was just considered a doll for girls and doll lovers, but with its movie, it offers not only a joyful ride filled with dance digits, outrageous dresses, and tonnes of pink but also a tale that embodies the real goal of feminism: a society where feminism is equally valued and cherished.
