NEW BUSINESSPITCH BRIEFQUAKERChewy BarPROJECT WORK
PepsiCo's Quaker is reviewing its Quaker Chewy snack-bar business.
The move comes as the company looks to house its different businesses under the Quaker name at separate agencies. According to the request for proposal, Quaker in the past has had its hot cereal and snack bars business under one agency's roof, considering the two businesses to be similar. EnergyBBDO has been the lead agency on the Quaker
business since 2012. The agency is still working on the hot cereal business, said an agency spokeswoman.
"Recently, however, Quaker has adopted a demand space driven approach to positioning and communications," said the RFP. "With this shift, the Quaker Oatmeal and Quaker Chewy businesses now play in distinct demand spaces. "
A Quaker spokeswoman told that "we can confirm that we're in the process of exploring additional ad agencies to support 2016 Quaker Chewy work."
The review is likely to be a swift one. The company reached out to agencies in mid-November, and shops were scheduled to present their pitches on Dec. 18. It appears as though no in-person meetings will be held prior to the presentations, at
least according to the RFP, though there are two phone calls that were to be scheduled.
EnergyBBDO was also the lead agency on PepsiCo's Lay's brand, but as of May, the agency no longer works on that brand.

Quaker embraced partnerships with relevant influencers in order to increase awareness among moms. Furthermore the partnership went farther with Girl Scout Cookie, producing a “special edition” of granola bars.
Continuing with the same approach, Quaker could leverage the popularity of some famous people influencing the target. The first 10 positions of the famous people ranking are all about health and fitness and we bet health conscious moms are taking
seriously their words.
Moreover, analyzing their favorite recreational activities we surfaced a good interest into sports events and particularly regarding running.
Looking at their food preferences it’s clear their passion toward fruits and vegetables, with high appreciation of Avocados.
INSIGHTThis segment can be attracted and engaged through partnering with influential personalities like
Chalene Johnson (fitness and business expert), who are high in both relevance and penetration. You can also reach this segment of healthy moms at sporting events, especially running events. From a
product development standpoint, according to this segment’s taste preferences, a granola bar based on avocados could become their new favorite snack.

As for media preferences, this audience isn’t compelled by classic dramas or comedies; these women prefer full-length feature documentaries, indicating a craving for information. They also like to read content that can add something to their
knowledge.
Moreover, other than sports-themed content, they tend to follow blogs and websites talking about maternity, particularly those highlighting the busy lives of mothers.
The final element that can be exploited to increase the engagement with this audience is the high popularity of animals, which are present in the Pet Lovers psychographic trait. Dogs, and in particular Boxers, are the animals most popular with this target.
INSIGHTCapitalizing on this group’s passion for healthy lifestyles, interesting content could be produced around the
nutritional values of Quaker Products and how they contribute to a fit and healthy life, presenting this information within the context of scientific research.
These moms are trying to raise their children with as much of a natural, healthful diet as they can, and Quaker could be a good ally by basing their messaging and branding on authenticity and naturalness. Cultivating an
online space where health-conscious moms can share recipes, ideas and advice on maternity and raising healthy kids could be a promising avenue for increasing engagement, brand awareness and trust within this
target group.
