Cottonelle Brand Challenges North America to Make the Ultra Switch
Cottonelle Ultra Partners with Patti Stanger of 'The Millionaire Matchmaker' To Encourage People to Try Something New In the Bathroom
DALLAS, Feb. 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Like a good relationship gone stale, toilet paper is the ultimate routine purchase—people get into a long-term relationship with one brand and never consider how things could be better. To shake things up, Cottonelle brand is launching the "Make the Ultra Switch" Sweepstakes and giving away 90 prizes in 90 days to encourage consumers to try something new in the bathroom: Cottonelle Ultra Double Roll, which is the thickest toilet paper in the aisle.
Now through May 1, switch to Cottonelle Ultra toilet paper and enter for a chance to win up to 90 daily prizes—each designed to inspire those little switches to help get you out of a relationship rut, whether it's with a long-term partner or a bath tissue brand. Daily prizes include luxury bedding, couples massages, dance lessons for two, manicures for a year, a new digital camera and more. For the complete list of prizes and official sweepstakes rules, visit www.CottonelleUltraSwitch.com.
"Cottonelle brand is challenging North America to make the Ultra Switch to the thickest bath tissue in the aisle," said John Stanwood, Cottonelle senior brand manager. "Cottonelle Ultra Double Roll toilet paper is 35 percent thicker than Quilted Northern Soft & Strong Double Roll toilet paper, and we're confident that once people try it, they will realize what's missing from their current toilet paper."
The brand also is teaming up with Patti Stanger, star of the hit television show "The Millionaire Matchmaker," who will share expert tips on how little switches can make all the difference in people's relationships and lives. From surprising your spouse by cooking a favorite meal, to freshening up your look with a hair makeover or making sure your bathroom is well stocked with the unbeatable thickness of Cottonelle Ultra bath tissue (compared to Double Roll equivalent bath tissue), the famed relationship expert will help people spice things up by revealing exciting tips during the month of February.
"After my clients find their matches, I always remind them how important it is to switch things up because even the best relationships can get stale," said Stanger. "Just one switch in your normal routine can have surprising results, so I'm excited to partner with the Cottonelle brand to help people try something new."
