DIG - Friso Mommies Arm Their Kids!

Challenge
Mothers are spoilt for choice in Growing-up Milk category. Against a clutter of aggressive pharma brands with strong medical claims, Friso Gold with its small budget had a tough challenge in holding affluent moms engaged around its immunity platform.

Solution
Working moms often worry about their kids’ health & safety, especially when they’re at work. Being guardian angels to their children they want nothing more than equipping their children with total defense mechanism. Recognizing that working mothers often have pockets of me-time in between office hours, which they spend online uploading, playing and sharing photos, we invited them to do what’s top-of-their-mind – arm their tiny tots with total safety! – via a cool custom Photo tool.

Execution
We invited a group of alpha-moms to use the photo tool to choose from an array of weapons, shields, armors etc to creatively showcase their kids in the midst of battling bacteria & germs, along with a photo blog entry that turned them into Friso Gold’s advocates & opinion leaders. Friso Gold’s association with immunity was further reinforced via information sharing during parenting talks & kids activities held exclusively for winners of most interesting entries.

Results
The brand attribute related to immunity grew by phenomenal 150% over the quarter! On the shelves, sales recorded a healthy growth of 9% over previous quarter and 23% over last year (Nielsen Retail Audit; Dutch Lady Brandtrack).
