Caregiver confidence

Parents needed reassurance around comfort, dryness, sizing and product suitability.

Retail shelf competition

The brand had to stand out in crowded baby care aisles and pharmacy shelves.

Field execution consistency

Promoters needed a clear script, product knowledge and feedback discipline.
