How Barbie won the box office battle
Maxine Dunham & Ben Horner | Sep 2023

As part of the Creative & Digital Team’s Monday morning meeting that kickstarts our week, teams take it in turns to share ideas and inspiration.

Maxine and Ben from the Digital Engagement Team recently put together a presentation showcasing how Mattel leveraged a unique omnichannel strategy to enable the Barbie movie to become the viral marketing success story of 2023.

Even though Barbie World is a long way from our day-to-day, there are several key learnings we can take from the Barbie Movie’s strategy and apply to our work in Medical Communications:

  • Data-led approach
  • Seamless integration of digital platforms
  • Strategic partnerships
  • Focus on storytelling and meaningful connections
