ORANGE, CA, July 02, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Increased customer engagement is a common goal for all marketers. Sales and marketing specialists McKenzie Holland consider the element of mystery a crucial tool in enticing customers to find out more about a brand. People are curious by nature and when presented with all the information they need during an advertisement, it discourages further interest. But when a brand offers consumers with a snippet of interesting information, this encourages them to source further information, regardless of personal relevance.

To demonstrate the art of using mystery in marketing, McKenzie Holland shares two of their favourite campaigns where mystery was at the heart of the strategy:
The VW Beetle - Marketers at VW offered the tagline, Lemon to their 1960 advertisement for the VW Beetle. The firm was encouraging the consumer to find out why they would consider purchasing a car with no modifications from the previous model. The advert then forced the consumer to read seven paragraphs surrounding the vehicle's features that were perfect and required no adaptations. Marketers were then able to create a bond with the product, encouraging trust through engagement and strengthening the brand relationship. The key with this campaign was the time the mystery enabled the consumer to actively engage with the brand to form the positive image. The vehicle, to date, is still the largest value retaining small car available to purchase.
The Man In The Hathaway Shirt - After trading as a small unknown business in New York, a simple, yet effective advertisement created a consumer demand that sold out the Hathaway shirts in the first week of sale, and put the brand in the spotlight. 'The Man In The Hathaway Shirt' campaign saw a photo of Baron George Wrangell dressed in a shirt and an eyepatch. Consumers were posed the question to the consumer, who is this man, and why does he have an eyepatch? During the advertisement the consumer was given an insight into the profile of a Hathaway shirt wearer, and how they evoke an air of mystery.
