Health care experts often advise people to add essential vitamins and nutrients to their diet to remain in good health and boost their immunity, yet maintaining a balanced diet rich in fiber is often becomes difficult for today’s busy population, specifically. Media Idee team understood this insight when they launched ‘Ramadan Recipes With Chef Shai’. The campaign broke new ground for the category in Pakistan due to its focus on the convenient manner of boosting their fiber intake. Media Idee handled everything from the production required to the media buying.
According to the latest SocialBakers.com July 2014 social Marketing Report Pakistan, Fibre7 was the 5th most engaged with brand in the region based on Post Engagement Rate beating the country’s Avg. Engagement Rate by 10X and creating a high record of 7900% growth in engagement for the brand.
Fibre7 is Pfizer’s health and wellness brand, a fiber product (fiber husk) which is targeted for the mature audiences who are health conscious and motivated by health and weight needs. Fiber Husk is usually taken as a means of promoting bowel regularity in the country and eliminating acidity. However to increase usage and a means of helping people meet their daily fiber needs as specified by international bodies, Fibre7 has been promoted as a means of healthy lifestyle which promotes daily wellness which may including weight control, diminishing obesity, heart disease, etc.
The campaign which brought over 7900% growth in engagement for the brand was the recent association with Chef Shai. To increase the daily intake and to take advantage of the month of ramadan (where consumption of especially unhealthy foods and snacks increases manifolds), Fibre7 associated with Chef Shai, a local celebrity chef and announced for the first time recipes made with Fibre7 as an ingredient. These ranged from shakes to traditional foods.
The success of the campaign can be judged that despite being a brand for mature audiences, seniors and empty nesters, adult females, and higher income households brand in a relatively conservative category, the campaign generated well over 7900% engagement and swept across all demographics despite being advertised to only the TG on social media. It proved that there is a demand for health and weight conscious products across all segments and people do want nutritious, natural, better-for-you recipes.
