OUR APPROACH
The media campaign was split into two distinct phases with a focus on building media relationships through creative desk drops, followed by in-depth comment pieces with key trade journalists.
With the exponential growth of Fulfil in the Irish forecourt and convenience market, the team was commissioned to launch the protein bar to a UK mainland trade audience. Fulfil’s founders needed to be positioned as key product innovators and all media relations had to communicate the product’s unique proposition in both confectionary and healthy eating categories.
The media campaign was split into two distinct phases with a focus on building media relationships through creative desk drops, followed by in-depth comment pieces with key trade journalists.
The campaign resulted in 11 news pieces announcing Fulfil to the trade food and drink market. A further four bespoke feature-length pieces were secured and drafted for key trade media, making an instant impact and introducing Fulfil and its founders to the UK scene.
The total audience reach for the media activity was 285,000 with the client particularly pleased with the team’s strategy to hit the most valuable trade titles, prioritising quality and long-term relationships over quantity alone.
