Executive SummaryOur campaign plans to tackle Snapple’s challenges through a series of
interactive tactics that will increase brand awareness and purchase frequency. Wehave included activation techniques, sales promotions, social media, and an overallmessage of consumer appreciation to solidify the main idea of our campaign. TheBig Idea is: Find Your Snapple and Quench Your Mood.Snapple has a wide varietyof different classic and quirky flavors. Because of this, there is a flavor to fit yourmood for everyday.
Our main tactic includes a fleet of Snapple tour buses that will travel acrossthe country to engage with the target market and inform them about Snapple’svariety of flavors through a personal connection. Through traditional and non-traditional media outlets, we intend to encourage consumers to make Snapple theirgo-to drink by showing them there is a flavor for any mood or occasion.
Challenge• Create an integrated 2017 holistic marketing campaign to grow Snapple volume in
the United States.• Grow brand relevance through engagement tactics with our heavy users who currently
consider Snapple about 50% of the time when wanting a beverage. We need to increasethat percentage.
• Increase awareness in the non-heartland areas while also being sure not to isolate theheartland users.
• Increase purchase frequency:• Heavy user buying rate from 9x to 10x per year• Light user buying rate from 1x to 3x per year

Heartland VS. Non-HeartlandThis difference is illustrated in thelocalization of purchase, which amongvarious geographic locations results insubsections of cultural values
Consumers need something that is fun, interactive, and tangible.
This difference is illustrated in the localization of purchase, which among various geographic locations results in subsections of cultural values. Seeing as the Northeastern corridor is the nesting ground for brandloyalty it is safe to say that most consumers adopt a cultural value system based on geographic location.
The key selling points of Snapple, bothteas and juice drinks, are during thewarm summer months of the year.

ResearchObjectives
Our research objective is to find out howaware consumers are of the Snapplebrand in different regions of the country.Through our research, we need todiscover the consumer perceptions of thebrand and the product itself to get a clearunderstanding of what consumers thinkabout Snapple. We also intend to find outwhat other brands consumers are drinkingif they are not drinking Snapple and whatthey find appealing. We not only need togain knowledge of consumer behavior inrelation to Snapple, but in relation to all ofour top competitors as well.
SurveyWe conducted an online survey askingthose across the United States, theiropinion of the Snapple brand as wellas their purchasing decisions when itcomes to tea/juice beverages.
Focus GroupConsisted of 10 participants ages 18-21, both male and female and all residingfrom the heartland area. • When people think of Snapple they associate it with Snapple facts, glass
bottle, and premium taste. • Brand awareness and loyalty are the key purchasing factors for participants
who choose Snapple. For those who do not, they go for convenience, price,and quantity. All are qualities Snapple does not have, but participants wishthey had.
• Snapple was perceived as a premium, cool, happy and summertime drinkwhereas its competitors were perceived as simply middle class (Arizona), lowclass (Lipton), and for teenagers (Brisk). Tao Tea and Honest Tea wentunrecognized.
