CASE ANALYIS:
Marketing Campaign: What they
did?
In 2011, Patagonia launched a Marketing campaign to
discourage consumers from buying their products.
Days before the Black Friday, Patagonia bought a full
page ad in The New York Times with bold print
stating: Dont Buy This Jacket, with an image of a
Patagonia fleece and information about the
importance of sustainability.

Critical Analysis
THE BRAND IS THE STORY: THE ART OF STORYTELLING
Patagonia works hard at being the premier tree-hugging apparel
company in the world and not just a marketer selling fleece to the
active affluent in Soho. It helped create a national park, its supply
chain boasts fair trade certified wages, organic cotton, traceable
down, and responsibly sourced merino wool. It's an
environmentally-conscious shopper's dream come true.
So, the company is not just selling products, it is also selling a
powerful story of social cause and environmental well-being.
