Pilot Pen celebrates 100th anniversary with celebrity designs
Dealer Support
http://dealersupport.co.uk/pilot-pen-celebrates-100th-anniversary-with-celebrity-designs/
In 2018, Pilot celebrates its 100th anniversary – for the Japanese company, it has been a 100 year long success story marked with industry-changing innovations and international expansion.
To celebrate this milestone and welcome the next 100 years in a fitting style, Pilot and popstar Mika have decided to join together to celebrate in a suitably creative, colourful, and fun way. Pilot asked Mika to redesign three of their most iconic and best-selling ranges, to create a collectable “Pilot by Mika” range of limited edition pens! The Limited Edition pens are available now and consist of an eclectic mixture of colourful, weird, playful barrel designs inspired from pop culture themes, Pilots’ maritime origins (founders were sailors), and candy stores!
The Pilot V5, G2, FriXion Ball and FriXion Clicker are all available as Limited Edition Mika editions in loose, blistercarded and counter display formats.
Stuart Barker, marketing manager for Pilot Pen UK commented: “We are very excited to have Mika on board to help us celebrate our 100 years birthday in a unique way for the writing instrument market, the pens looks amazing and I’m sure will be extremely sought-after by both fans of Mika and of our top-selling products who are looking for a twist on the usual barrel designs.”
In Mika’s own words, “It’s a pleasure to celebrate Pilot’s 100th anniversary together with you and to create a special project for this birthday. Pilot has been part of my life, I grew up with these pens, I grew up stealing my father’s V5, stealing my mother’s (V7) and learning how to write properly with these pens and also learning how to draw. So using these same pens that we now have in our design studio today, we’ve created another world and our versions of Pilot pens for this birthday. It’s an honour, we’re very happy to be doing it, I am so happy to be actually drawing these things that are going to be part of something so iconic.”
The Mika editions are launched in January in the UK and will be available only during 2018.

Vendor Profile: Pilot
Editorial, 22 December 2017
Celebrating with a splash – and a celebrity
OPI speaks to Ken Schoellhammer, European Brand Manager at Pilot Corporation of Europe about how the company is marking its anniversary in 2018
OPI: 100 years in business is a very special occasion. How are you planning to celebrate the event in Europe specifically in 2018?
Ken Schoellhammer: It is indeed a very special occasion for our company. Marketing-wise, it is a great opportunity for an outstanding campaign. Awareness of the Pilot brand is generally good already in Europe, although it needs boosting in some countries.
One of our key priorities was to use this anniversary opportunity to highlight Pilot’s leading products. Of course we want to throw a big party to celebrate, but the aim of the party is also to raise our brand and product profile in the minds of our distributors as well as consumers. We wanted to come up with something very special and unique for this 100th anniversary.
Typically, you would launch a new range of products that embodies the special occasion. This would then be followed up with top-notch advertising material, a dedicated website, plenty of brand content, etc.
But we felt there was still something missing, a kind of special ‘wow’ factor that would make the campaign really stand out and be seen. Because, let’s face it: in our particular sector we don’t have the financial resources of industries such as automotive or high-tech. Pilot is probably the writing instruments’ brand that invests the most in media and advertising, but our share of voice still remains tiny in the universe of advertisers.
OPI: So how can you be more visible with a limited budget – what did you come up with?
KS: We explored the concept of a celebrity endorsement. This type of campaign can build brand equity and awareness. You have to be careful though as there can be pitfalls. It could be the celebrity overshadowing the brand, so even if the ad recall is good but brand attribution weak, the campaign overall cannot be considered a success.
When we started on this path, we set ourselves a list of objective criteria: the international character of the celebrity, because the playground for this particular campaign is Europe; his/her cross-generational appeal; and perhaps most importantly how he/she resonates with the type of product we manufacture. As a marketer, I see myself as a constant gardener – my approach is perennial and I’m not looking for one-shots that provoke a big spike in noise and activity that cannot be sustained over time.
My belief is that there has to be a connection at a deeper level. Obviously, Nike and Michael Jordan come to mind as the most successful endorsement ever, but very often it is about piggy-backing on a famous celebrity just because he/she is famous.
Mika, the celebrity we chose to partner with and who accepted our proposal, ticked many of our criteria boxes. He is best known as a singer obviously. But first and foremost, he is an artist. An artist who has chosen music as his preferred way of expressing a unique worldview. But that’s not it. His tailor-made, unique outfits he wears on stage – the design of which he is very much involved in – and past collaborations with Coca Cola and Swatch designing limited-edition products all show that he has expressed his creative side outside of the music industry.
He has had tremendous success as a TV personality and has appeared on The Voice in France and The X-Factor in the UK. In September 2017, Mika won the prestigious Rose d’Or international television award for best entertainment programme for his variety show Stasera Casa Mika in Italy. All of this speaks volumes about his creative mind.
Pilot Corporation of Europe, meanwhile, began work on its communication platform #happywriting in 2014. This ongoing campaign celebrates the emotional aspects of physically holding a writing instrument and explores issues such as creativity, self-expression, relaxation, learning and connecting with others.
Mika, as part of our anniversary campaign and with #happywriting in mind, was thrilled to have the opportunity to redecorate a number of pens that have been a part of his life since childhood.
Overall, we felt there was a real fit and a real connection between Pilot, its products and Mika.
OPI: Tell me a bit more about these limited editions that Mika created with you?
KS: The limited editions by Mika encompass the four bestselling ranges of the Pilot rollerball family, each in six colours: G2, V5, FriXion Ball and Clicker. That’s 24 designs overall. These will be on the market only during Pilot’s 2018 anniversary year. The idea is that Mika’s world is reflected on each of these 24 pens – colourful, weird, fun, unique, full of energy and life.
The 24 writing instruments form an eclectic mix and are based on a number of themes: pop culture, Pilot’s maritime origins and candy stores. Another inspiration came from the popularity of collectable cards, so each of the four ranges is like a family of unique pens that consumers can collect and enjoy together.
Apart from these limited editions that represent the core of our anniversary campaign, we’re supplementing and underpinning this with a whole range of marketing and advertising collateral. This includes an exciting new television commercial directed by the very talented Lukas Zanotto and production company TroubleMakers; a dedicated website, and of course a whole array of POS for the mass market, retailers, superstores, etc. Overall, I’m confident that we have covered all bases.
OPI: What has been the reaction from your distribution partners?
KS: Reactions from our distribution partners across Europe have been excellent. In those countries where Mika is best known, such as southern Europe or the UK, the response has been particularly enthusiastic. But even in nations like Germany where Mika doesn’t enjoy the same celebrity status, reactions have been very positive because of the sheer attraction, energy and momentum of the limited editions as well as the marketing assets and tools that we have produced.
Everyone has been complimentary about our 100th anniversary and how we’ve chosen to celebrate it in our own unique style. On a more pragmatic note, I believe there’s a real sense among our partners that the whole campaign has enough gravitas and attraction to actually increase sales – and that is, very bluntly-speaking, what ultimately matters the most to them!
OPI: Your celebration year is obviously only just kicking off, but what is your view now – almost in hindsight – on collaboration with non-industry personalities and celebrities?
KS: I believe that collaboration with external talent is definitely something we should be looking at again in the future. It’s positive to expose our company to new energies, inspiration and influences from outside our industry. I will never forget my favourite-ever brand campaign of Absolut Vodka which started with the successful collaboration of musicians and artists – including Andy Warhol – in New York in the 1980s.
The collaboration with artists fits in well with Pilot’s ethos and what we do, and it can be a very powerful combination. We also, for example, began work with artists for the Pilot Pintor, our new paint marker range in 2017, producing videos of their creations.

To save me doing some very slow and inaccurate Google translations, could somebody sum up what this competition is about?
Hi, Silver
This press release by LINES ,which was given the 1st prize last year, tells the outline about this award in English.
https://fatergroup.com/ww/news/press-releases/lines-awarded-1st-prize-immagini-amiche-promoted-udi
The award, inspired by the resolution of the European Parliament voted on September 3, 2008, on how marketing and advertising affect equality between women and men, is intended to counter the tendency of television and advertising to abuse of the image of women up to offending their dignity, and to encourage a type of communication that, beyond stereotypes, conveys positive creative messages.

Just now, mellody said:
I don't know much about pen brands... is it a brand that can only be bought in France, or is it international?
So, after sunglasses and watches it's pens now... at least that's something I'd actually use.
(The sunglasses weren't my style and I can't wear Swatch watches on a daily basis because they're too big and too loud...)
By now, I can only find French articles... maybe only available in France on 1st Jan 2018.
Yes, it could be one of the most useful / affordable MIKA item for us.
By the way,
Pilot is Japanese pen manufacturer based in Tokyo, Japan.

Pour célébrer son centenaire, la marque japonaise d’instruments d’écriture a demandé au chanteur Mika de revisiter ses produits stars. Dès le 1er janvier 2018, les consommateurs pourront découvrir des V5, G2 et Frixion au design coloré, dans le style « rétro-pop » de l’artiste. Il existe six motifs pour chaque modèle. Ce nouvel ambassadeur apporte avec lui un univers joyeux, qui sera décliné sur les outils PLV de la collection.
Des innovations accessibles
Depuis son lancement en 1918, la maison Pilot a su s’imposer comme leader mondial de l’instrument d’écriture. La marque a suscité la fidélité des consommateurs grâce à des produits pensés pour eux, innovants et accessibles. Pour incarner cet esprit créatif, trois stylos emblématiques ont été choisis : le V5, premier roller à encre liquide ; le G2, le roller à encre gel le plus vendu au monde ; le roller thermosensible FriXion, qui a fêté ses 10 ans en 2017.

Replay: Mika on RTL 102.5 guest on The Flight
News
http://www.rtl.it/notizie/articoli/mika-nella-mia-casa-storie-umane-e-viaggi/
Mika: "Nella mia casa storie umane e viaggi"
Da questa sera in prima serata su Rai Due con al fianco Luciana Littizzetto
Mika aprirà nuovamente le porte della sua casa speciale a partire da questa sera alle 21.20 su Rai2, per quattro prime serate del suo One Man Show "Stasera CasaMika" con al fianco Luciana Littizzetto. "Seguo sempre la paura delle cose nuove: quando sono un po'scomodo vuol dire che la direzione è giusta", ha detto l'artista. Le nuove puntate ospiteranno anche una fiction in pillole in cui Mika tornerà indietro al 1967. Il viaggio in Italia passa invece tra incontri con pastori sardi o cantanti d'opera e il suo taxi a spasso per Napoli, Firenze, Milano e Bari: "Non volevo solo andare in gondola per far ridere due minuti, ma parlare con le persone, e portare qualcosa in studio da trasformare in gesto o canzone". Tra gli ospiti della prima puntata Dita Von Teese, Luca Argentero, Elisa e Rita Pavone.
E' prevista anche la straordinaria partecipazione di Gregory, attore teatrale inglese, amico di infanzia di Mika. Melachi e Amira, le due amatissime golden retriever dello showman, saranno spettatrici privilegiate delle serate, comodamente adagiate sul divano di casa.
Ogni puntata sarà aperta da "It’s My House", l'inedito scritto e composto da Mika con Jonathan Quarmby e FionaBevan appositamente per lo show. Ne è appena stato pubblicato il singolo digitale, già tra i più scaricati online, mentre un nuovo album di Mika è previsto per il prossimo anno. Nel corso delle quattro serate non mancheranno le altre hit di Mika e le interpretazioni di grandi successi della storia della canzone italiana e internazionale.-
