THE CHALLENGE

Despite the rise in plant-based milk's popularity, consumers often neglect to check ingredients, assuming all products are alike. This leads to choices that may include undesirable ingredients like gums and fillers. MALK Organics faced the challenge of educating consumers on ingredient transparency to drive better decision-making and increase sales, all while having to reach a national audience without a national spend.

THE STRATEGY

Crafting a Winning Media Strategy

1. Identify the Right Partner: We chose Whole Foods as our exclusive retailer and excluded non-buyers of specific plant-based milks from our targeting pool. 

2. Narrow In: Collaborating with Amazon, we targeted recent, verified buyers of competitive plant-based milks both in-store and online.

3. Leverage OTT: To highlight MALK's clean-label advantage, we used larger screens in non-skippable formats for the first touchpoint, adding screens and touchpoints to boost consideration,  intent, and sales. 

4. Boost Frequency: We employed more cost-effective CPM channels to increase consumer touchpoints based on their engagement with large format ads.

5. Track and Tweak: We continuously monitored campaign performance and optimized strategies to maximize impact.
