Somat (Henkel)
UGC Campaign — Re-Booked
Year-round UGC video campaign management for Somat — authentic creator content to boost brand perception for Germany's #1 dishwasher brand. Successful video performance led to re-commissioning for additional content.
Somat is Henkel's leading dishwasher detergent brand in Europe, offering tabs, gels, and rinse aids. A market leader in Germany and several European countries, Somat stands for powerful cleaning performance and convenience. The brand continuously innovates with products like Somat Excellence and Gold, targeting households that want sparkling results with minimal effort.
What Was the Problem?
Dishwasher tabs are the ultimate low-interest product on social media. Nobody follows a dishwasher brand for entertainment. Somat needed to find creative angles that make an invisible household product visible and engaging — especially on TikTok where utility content can go viral if it solves real problems.
How We Solved It
We created TikTok content around "dishwasher hacks" and satisfying cleaning content — capitalizing on the platform's love for oddly satisfying videos and household tips. UGC creators demonstrated Somat in real kitchen scenarios: loading techniques, cleaning challenges, and product comparisons. The strategy turned a commodity product into shareable content by focusing on the satisfaction of clean results rather than product features.
