When you’re congested, you can’t smell. You also can’t pronounce “Neti-Pot,” which would be the solution to all of your problems.
The barrier? It’s weird, and you might get a brain-eating amoeba if you use the wrong water.
Solution? Sell a Neti-Pot water distiller in an alluring, sexy way.
INTRODUCING: NÉDI
POP-UP TEASER
We start with a citywide print and OOH campaign teasing the location of a glamorous pop-up shop.
Echoing fragrance ads, these prints feature aesthetic settings, fashionable people and – wait – puffy eyes and redness?
PRINT SAMPLES
In magazines, we’ll place invitations to our pop-up shaped like a perfume sampler… except the underside of the flap smells like nothing.
RADIO & STREAMING
Ads will appear on music streaming services using the vague, fantastical language of perfume ads. These are performed by congested, mucous-y voice actors.
Podcast hosts will be instructed to read Nédi ads while holding their noses.

EXPERIENTIAL LAUNCH
The Nédi experience will take place in springtime at one of New York’s most congested places — Times Square.
PRODUCT DEMO
The visitors will be led to sinks that are installed inside of the pop-up, and will then experience Nédi – distilled water flowing through the Neti Pot, into their nostrils – mastering proper technique for the sweet release.
PRODUCT
After the demo, attendees receive a Neti-Pot and a Nédi water distiller to use at home – designed to look like a perfume bottle. The packaging reflects the luxury fragrance brands the campaign parodies.
