“Ferme & Fondant comme vous” by SVELTESSE FRANCE
TESTING THE ROI OF 100% FACEBOOK CAMPAIGN
THE IDEA: The Chilled Dairy Light category experienced a strong loss of attractiveness and the “light” products have a negative reputation (no pleasure, full of sweeteners, not effective ...). In addition, the brand Sveltesse is a fragile brand (cluttered category, low link with consumers with low conversion and loyalty, a non-specific image and positioning). Sveltesse needed to boost sales and to work the brand territory vs the competitor Taillefine. As the media budget didn’t allow a TV burst, we focused exclusively on digital with a 100% facebook campaign on the brand new platform Sveltesse.
THE CHALLENGE: • Launch and consolidate the Ferme & fondant comme vous" platform on Facebook, generating a competitive level of fans and engagement in 8 only weeks • Measure the effectiveness of a social media + trade campaign in terms on preference and buying intentions and ultimately sales.
