Capri-Sun maximises awareness with Facebook’s reach and frequency buying
Overview
Capri-Sun’s range of fruit drinks, easily recognised by their distinctive pouch packaging, have been quenching people’s thirst since 1969. Today the range includes sugar-free and flavoured water versions and is enjoyed by people in more than 100 countries around the world.
The Goal: Capri-Sun wanted to reach wide UK audiences in this campaign and build both brand awareness and product awareness as a result.
What was the role of Digital in the media mix?
Capri-Sun and digital performance agency iProspect Ireland decided on a four-week campaign across Facebook and Instagram to build awareness of the brand, using reach and frequency buying to achieve wide reach with predictable delivery.
The team also wanted to take advantage of this campaign to test out the performance of video ads featuring different product sizes, so it set this up as a multi-cell brand lift study. All variables across the two cells remained the same, except the ad creative, which were tailored either for the 200ml product or the 330ml product. A broad UK audience saw ads that were also specially adapted for Instagram Stories with engaging full-screen vertical video.
People were then polled on brand awareness indicators such as ad recall and intent to purchase, and the results between test groups (who saw the ads) and control group (who did not see the ads) were compared.
