Paperchase Love Week aims to celebrate love with seven days of customer workshops and activities in-store from scrapbooking and letter writing, to calligraphy and flower arranging. Marketing manager Bex Ohta explains: "This is the first time we’ve really focused on Valentine’s at a larger scale at our store events. It’s a key card-giving time of year, but we wanted to do something a bit different for our customers and celebrate all types of love with our very own ‘Love Week.’
"Valentine’s is sometimes limiting in what you can buy and experience, aside from the cuddly bears and chocolates, so we’ve given our customers a chance to experience an array of different activities each day, from bouquet making to motivational workshops with our partners Project Love."
The retailer promoted the campaign instore and directly to its loyalty card holders while across social media, the #LoveWeek campaign also focused on an SOS gift wrapping service which is available across ten stores. A Facebook Live Craft-A-Long will also enable more customers to tune in from home and engage with the wider digital campaign.
