Shopper Marketing

2024 Kroger Spring Resets Campaign

Thanks to the success of their social media presence, Awareness largely isn’t a challenge for the fast-growing Dan-O’s Seasoning brand.

Dan-O’s Seasoning has over 4.5 million TikTok followers and a dedicated group of 297.1k “Fan-O’s”.

Yet, >80% of their most-dedicated fans have never purchased the brand’s seasoning. We also had an opportunity to attract the net-new audience, female shoppers, to the brand.

To drive conversion and get smart in Shopper, we developed a Kroger-focused campaign with two paid media approaches + in-store marketing to boost retail sales velocity.

A 3-market test serving high-impact mobile banners to shoppers in Kroger stores.

Kroger-direct Media

A 3-market test using Kroger-owned data and placements across three channels: programmatic display, targeted ads, and product listing ads.
