Earlier in the month, the company goodwipes initiated a promotional effort — titled the Wet January Campaign — in collaboration with influencer Hallie Batchelder. This initiative employed humorous and provocative language to advocate for a shift from traditional toilet paper to the brand's [pre-moistened wipes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultimate-fresh-hygiene-wipes) as part of a [New Year's resolution concept](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unready-for-anything). It served to continue the company's "long-standing mission of breaking bathroom taboos."

The goodwipes x Hallie Batchelder Wet January Campaign was multifaceted as it involved the influencer partnership, [out-of-home advertising](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kiehls-response), and a planned invite-only Wet January Wrap Party in New York City, which occurred on January 29th and featured a celebrity DJ and consumer giveaway.

The initiative was positioned as a central component of a broader brand revitalization that aims to generate cultural conversation through a tone of playful candor.
