Unilever showcases multinational reach of emojis with Wall’s keyboard

Unilever’s ice cream brand Wall’s is putting itself at the heart of young adults’ conversations in multiple countries with an emoji keyboard that focuses on interactive brand engagement as opposed to interruptive advertising.

The brand hopes to be able to reach young adults in the popular and often-used messaging channel with content that is humorous and conversational. Wall's is the first Unilever brand to launch a keyboard to feature emojis, stickers and GIFs.

“Wall's is aiming to connect with a Gen-Z and Millennial customer base, and this target demographic is extremely active across the mobile messaging landscape,” said Christian Brucculeri, CEO of Snaps.

“Messaging is the number one way teens communicate with one another on mobile, so it makes perfect strategic sense for Wall's to insert themselves into conversations in a way that adds to the conversation,” he said.

“A Wall's emoji keyboard allows young adults to share Wall's content that is humorous and conversational on a peer-to-peer level - driving deeper brand affinity.”
