Give a crap
There are a few reasons why I buy all our loo roll from Who Gives a Crap:
I don’t have to worry about running out of loo roll for the next year
The packaging is fun and the loo rolls look nice in our bathroom
I don’t have to lug packets of loo roll back from the supermarket (the shame! I’m a person that defecates!)
For savvy shoppers, the PPS (price per sheet) is competitive
Writing about toilet stuff is a copywriter’s dream (well, my dream). There’s a lot of mileage in poo banter and Who Gives a Crap manage to knock it out the park every time.
Take the delivery box that my loo roll arrived in today. Every single panel of the box contains glorious writing.
This box tells me that on top of being very funny, Who Gives a Crap give a crap about everything they do. Many craps.
It pays to get this stuff right. (Literally – this is the third box I’ve bought from Who Gives a Crap, on top of persuading some friends to sign up. That’s over £150 of loo roll.)
Sweating the details – like the ‘unimportant’ copy on a delivery box – could be the reason that people fall in love with your brand.
Don’t want to do it yourself? Hire a writer! (Hello.)
How to show you give a crap with your delivery box
Throw in some exxxtra letters
An easy way to dial up the fun.
Leave a cute message for the delivery person
I wonder how many delivery people have bought loo roll from them after reading this.
Flatter your customer
Who doesn’t want to hear that their bum looks nice?
Get existential
Recycling reminders don’t have to be dreary.
Elevate your batch number
Batch number = boring. Lucky number = not boring.
Remind customers that they’re doing good
People might not know that their TP’s changing the world. Now they do.
Provide box inspo
These crafting ideas might give the box a second life.
Get your customers’ cogs whirring
This made me do a double take.
Now go buy some loo roll.
