6. WA Launch
September to October 2013
Market Strategy:
With limited national media, marketing and advertising budgets, we need think
strategically about to drive optimum return on your marketing investment.
Our suggested strategic role-out would occur across 2 stages:
STAGE 1: WA
With an existing retail distribution channel through IGA, a trial brand and promotional
strategy can be rolled out state-wide through all IGA stores to test messaging and measure
sales and optimise the campaign for a later distribution nationallyy
WA Timing:
Kick Off: September & October 2013
Why 2 Months: Allow sales data to normalise over 2 x monthly sales periods, then average
the sales results, brand recall, intension to purchase and purchase data.
7. National Launch
November 2013+
STAGE 2: NATIONAL (Excluding WA)
With an existing retail distribution channel through IGA, a trial brand and promotional
strategy can be rolled out state-wide through all IGA stores to test messaging and measure
sales and optimise the campaign for a later distribution nationally
National Timing:
Kick Off: November 2013
Why November:
• With the build of the Sydney manufacturing centre to supply states beyond WA, we
recommend that a minimum of 2 months elapses in order to allow time for on-
boarding, manufacturing and distribution.
• We also recommend going to market prior to the summer period – Anskos builds
healthy lives and we wanted to launch pre-summer holidays to help forge habitual
healthy eating. November will also avoid the heavy clutter of the December period.
States: We will need to understand: State-based sales forecasts in order of significance,
distribution contracts and order commitments to each state + the likelihood of IGA
supporting Anskos in-store prior to completing actual state planning.
8. Suggested Tactics
BRAND AMBASSADOR
With ongoing work to further define the brand direction, the strategic placement of Mel B
+ customers as brand ambassadors will become clear – below are some suggested tactics.
Aligning Anskos with
Healthy Aspirational
Opportunities
Create an Anskos Lifestyle
Drive social-sharing.
Customers = Ambassadors
In-store, online, media,
store promotions + media
event = buzz
9. Suggested Tactics
APPS
With a plethora of smart phones out in the market, our recommendation is to firstly
leverage off existing Apps through: Advertising, Product Integration, Brand Social and
Brand Ambassadors.
Then, following detailed scoping, we recommend building a proprietary Anskos app –
themes for development could includee: The value health foods, body tracking, menu
generators, diet and exercise programs
Leverage off IGA’s existing
Bar code scanning, super
market mix and match
10. Suggested Tactics
IGA RETAIL PROMOTION
As IGA is your largest distribution network, heavy co-marketing programs between IGA
and Anskos will leverage your highest sales.
