Objectives:

Build awareness and drive trial of Oatmeal & Fruit with women, who make 92% of all food and beverage purchase decisions. Key to this strategy was the creation of the first “Children’s Nutrition Survey” with Harris Interactive, which indicated that nearly 70% of US households were skipping breakfast due to lack of time. Survey insights were added throughout messaging.
