I love this stuff. Apparently everybody else does too. Method Planet-Friendly Cleaning Products has done a fantastic job with branding. From the designer bottles to the cleaner, greener soap, these guys established themselves as a household name right out of the gate. They’ve got a great line of products, including this lavender-scented all-purpose cleaner that’s got 1,029 reviews on Amazon.
This little bottle turned out to be a fun playground. There are so many specific audience segments and unique targets for this one product (eco-conscious consumers, health-aware, allergen-avoidance, pregnant, fragrant-sensitive), that I could’ve written about this for days. But I stopped at 102. Because ain’t nobody got time for that.

Overall: Good! Now, Method does a great job on their own. I love their current taglines of “Clean Like A Mother” & “Fear No Mess” — which shows these guys know how to have fun. And there’s no need to change those up. My lines could be used for specific advertisements or audience targeting. And I think there’s a place for them, but Method, keep doing what you’re doing.
Lessons: The Amazon reviews were a gift that kept on giving. So many crazy, incredible and fun lines in there. They did the heavy lifting for me. This list doesn’t give me a sense of creative accomplishment. It was more editing than creating.
- As fun as review mining is, it’s definitely time-consuming. Especially when there are so many great lines.
- The huge audience and multiple usage occasions were fun to play with, but very few products have this amount of reviews. It’s unlikely many of us will be have such a resource available.
- The lines are specific, but play to multiple audience types (if that makes sense)
- I started with an idea to tackle the brand, but quickly switched to a specific product
- Though the reviews were great, I didn’t do much legwork here. I tried not to copy/paste and directly plagiarize anything, but several seemed perfect as is
- If this were a paying client, I wouldn’t feel comfortable submitting this work as my own.
Time: Oops. Forgot to count, but probably close to 1:30. I got lost in reading reviews for a while.
A lot of great headlines here!
I had the privilege to write copy for Method some years ago, and it was a ton of fun. I can’t count how many times I caught myself laughing out loud as I wrote. I also developed an affinity for writing everything only in the lowercase. Took me some time to break that habit.
Thanks, Andy! It’s a great product. I was able to pull a ton from user reviews. Yeah, it’s funny how long we get stuck in weird habits. I randomly put (R) marks on things because of a very by-the-book project.
