OREO THINSA skinnier version of the beloved cookie, OREO, was released on July 13, 2015. These delicate cookies were released in three flavors, chocolate and golden wafer with OREO cream in the middle, and chocolate mint. These new cookies are 35 calories each and are 66% skinner than a normal OREO. These particular cookies are not designed to be dunked in milk and pulled apart, but certainly can be. It is a treat that shook the snack world. A “new spin on thin” can be appealing for those watching their wast lines but is a more sophisticated, delicate treat. This cookie strongly appeals to women (MORE DETAIL). On June 14, 2016 the first new flavors to OREO Thins were introduced, Lemon and Chocolate Cream. Then, in April of 2017 two additional flavors were introduced to the thin family, Salted Caramel and Coconut. The eightieth flavor made an appearance on June 5, 2018 with it being a Pistachio flavor creme with chocolate wafers.

MISSION"A new spin on thin. OREO Thins are a crisp, delicate, and delicious twist on the classic OREO cookie you know and love.”
A crisp and delicate take on the classic OREO to appeal to people watching their waistlines and who want a more
sophisticated snack.

way.
OREO launched a social media campaign
positioning the cookie as a sophisticated alternative
to the original cookie, with instructional videos on how
to “properly” enjoy the treat, pinky up and all.
OREO is following ‘thin’ cues in
technology and putting a sleek
and modern spin on a classic.

PAST ADVERTISING
OREO Thins have yet to implement a PR
campaign specifically for the brand.
OREO sponsored a party thrown by Neil Patrick Harris and he then posted about it on his social media reaching
out to his millions of followers. Oreo Thins have yet
to implement event marketing specifically
for the brand.
OREO Thins was advertised with various clever
outdoor ads as well as a couple TV ads
that highlighted the sleek and slim feel.
In Singapore, OREO Thins placed claw
machines with a new flavor for people to try their luck in a
unique way.

PRESENT ADVERTISING
Under the Original OREO brand.
Bite-sized OREO Thins because of the success they have seen with OREO Thins, they introduced Bite-Sized OREO Thins for even more
convenient snacking.Pop up marketing event. In
exclusive markets, they have set up small pop up shops on the sidewalk to encourage people to try OREO Thins. This also hits their target
audience of people who are more active.
“Thinner Than….” campaign. This was to show how OREO is evolving with other objects in
the world. Electronics are getting thinner and so are
OREOs. It is also a very visual campaign comparing the actual size or OREO Thins.
YouTube Video. This video has been promoted on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. It is very
modern and appeals to the younger audience.

ADVERTISING EFFECT ON SALES
Since 2015 when OREO Thins were released, they have been a profitable product. Marketed as a sleek sophisticated healthy alternative to the traditional OREO. The target audience was health conscious women. Though significantly less profitable than the traditional and Double Stuff OREOs, in 2017 OREO Thins made $125.2 million in sales. Not bad for a cookie half the size of a regular OREO. The advertising used had a large impact because before 2015, OREO Thins did not exist. The strategy was focused more on gaining exposure to the new product rather than just maintaining the same advertising strategy as other OREO products.
