This document outlines a marketing campaign to promote the HP Pavilion X2 laptop/tablet hybrid to students at the University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City. The 3-phase campaign aims to:
1) Raise awareness that traditional laptops are burdensome by challenging students to carry weighty objects;
2) Position the HP Pavilion X2 as a "burden-lifter" that provides flexibility through a photo contest and campus activations;
3) Encourage students to share challenges they've overcome through social media to win a Pavilion X2.
Key elements include viral videos, on-campus events, social media campaigns and seminars to generate interest and sales of the hybrid device.

DESIRED
RESPONSE
Laptop is very essential in my
student life, it's always side by side
to me but I don't want to bear a
heavy and bulkylaptop to many
places to fulfil my roles as a student,
a club member, a volunteer. It turns
out preventing me from doing what I
want and sometimes, making me
uncomfortable in public places.
I want to have a laptab
I have a lot of troubles to carry out :
get lost in a strange city, find motel
for schooling, connect with people,
do assignment, save memorable
moments, watch the world moving,
keep updated...
And now wow, I can not only own a
flexible laptab but also a burden-
lifter which helps me to solve all
troubles.

PHASE 1
"Dare you bear challenge" event
Students will be dared to wear an object that has the same
shape with laptop and same weight (2 kg) while moving
around and overcome challenges and activities. The longer
they carry the laptop, the bigger reward they will get
Let them feel that a normal laptop is very heavy and
bulky.
Viral clip
A dynamic male student is struggling with lots of problems
when using a laptop: - He had to email all materials to
others and let his laptop at home - He got bored to bring
a laptop however he saved everything in it - He was tired
to carry a laptop - He desired to own something small like
a tablet of his friends but he could not afford.
13. IMC PLAN
PHASE 2
Photo contest: "50 shapes of laptab"
1st step: Student has to define what is a laptab and post
on their facebook
2nd step: Student is challenged to carry HP Pavillion X2
but they touch it as less as possible and take a photo =>
A laptab is not your burden anymore
Activation:
Place HP Pavilion X2 in some most popular places of
UEH-ers (like group study, chit chat with friends...) like
Meito Boba, font gate of school, school's library,...
Each Pavilion X2 area will be set up nicely, friendly to use
and attractively with the message: "I am yours". There will
be lots of eronic situations when UEH-ers really need
laptop to throw their burdens (solve their problems)
14. IMC PLAN
PHASE 3
Seminar "Dynamer":
Consult students to be dynamic to lead
the life they want and overcome
challenges
