As an emerging brand, with virtually no above-the-line activity,
the challenge was to use word-of-mouth to generate consumer
interest and launch the brand's sassy values and personality.
To achieve this, we created a burlesque-style campaign and
started cheekily whispering about the delights of the irresistible
bites of chocolate dessert into the ears of A-listers, fashionistas
and journalists. Complemented by seductive sampling, tantalising
media relations and climatic online broadcasts, the entire campaign
was on brand with a marketing mix that oozed provocation.
The proof of the pudding was shown in just 15 weeks when we
served up a generous helping of brand awareness to 70 million
consumers, generating over £600,000 of media coverage that boosted
sales by three times the forecasted level. Our award-winning
consumer PR campaign helped grow the Filthy Food Company into a £2
million brand in just 3 months.
