Theme: Executing Brand-led Programs Through Shopper Marketing

NETWORKING BREAKFAST (9:00AM – 9:45AM)

INTRODUCTIONS (9:45AM – 10:00AM)

I. Brand Driven Shopper Programs – How V8 Leveraged Retailer Programs to Drive Trial
(10:00AM – 10:50AM)
V8® Vegetable Juice is an established brand with high brand awareness.  In 2015 a new extension, V8®  Blends was launched to reach a wider audience with a variety of fruit and vegetable blends.  As the brand moved into year 2 & 3, it was critical to continue to drive trial and household penetration.  But marketing budgets dictated that spend levels would not be at year 1 levels.  To reach the business objectives, it was critical to leverage in-store activation with sales and retailer engagement to deliver an integrated plan.

In this session, you will learn:

  • How V8® Blends executed trial driving programs in partnership with key customers.
  • Success and challenges with executing through retail environment.

II. Prestige Brands: Bringing Need-Based, Challenger Brands to Life With Drug Retailers 
(11:10AM – 12:00PM)
Working with limited resources and a large number of challenges, Prestige Brands will highlight how it was able to leverage some shopper insight “nuggets”  and develop/sell-in/execute programming opportunities against a few of its need-based, low household penetration brands within Walgreens and CVS.  Prestige will also demonstrate how the results of these programs were able to set the stage for future category-driving activation with these retailer partners.

Speaker:
Andrea Bouwman, Shopper Marketing Director, Prestige Brands, Inc.
