Green & Black’s
- name made up by Craig and Jo, our founders. Green is for the Organic principles that we have always stood for and Black for the rich, deep colour of the chocolate and its intense taste.-What started with a bar of Dark, 70% cocoa chocolate, for which we are best known today, has now become a wide range of products including 15 flavours of bar, a gift range, ice cream, hot chocolate and cooking chocolate.
-Now we are at a stage where we want to bring the next generation of consumers into the brand to continue our growth, especially from other areas of our brand portfolio, not just our bars.
- The creative challenge is to recreate the buzz behind the Green & Black’s brand to encourage even more consumers to try us and fall in love with us.
We are not necessarily looking to create a tagline but to have an ‘infectious brand idea’ that is just as much about how the brand behaves as what it says. Not only should it come across in our marketing communications but also in the type of products that we would launch, the distribution channels we might use or the ways we operate as a business. Think for example of the Dove campaign for Real Beauty or the Cadbury Dairy Milk Glass and a Half Full Productions, these both have an infectious idea that extends beyond the marketing copy.
The brand idea needs to be discovered and drive word of mouth. In its first instance it may only connect to a small group but it needs to quickly roll out to engage a large audience.
While we want to broaden the appeal of Green & Black’s, it must maintain its premium nature and not dumb down. Let the people come to us.
We have a strong personality. This is what has made everyone sit up and take notice of what we’ve done so far. Be bold – Ask for forgiveness, not permission.
Target Consumer- All adult lovers of chocolate, especially those buying other ‘premium brands’.
- Our products have broad age appeal for our brand but we feel that there is an opportunity to bring in a younger generation e.g. 25-35 year olds.
- Consumers who enjoy premium / quality products and value better quality food.
- Our consumers are environmentally friendly but it’s not their priority.
Marks & Spencer
Plan A AchievementsPlan A has helped us to innovate and start changing the way we do business.
Since 2007 we’ve:
- Cut carbon emissions from our operations by 80%.
- Improved store efficiency by 19%.
- Reduced amount of waste sent to landfill by 33%.
- Reduced weight of packaging on our Clothing and Home products by 36% and in Food by 20%.
- Used 400 million fewer carrier bags than in 2006 / 07.
The Creative Challenge
Despite very high awareness of Plan A and the achievements this has delivered, our customers recently told us that it felt like, “It is all about M&S talking about themselves, to us. We want to be involved, and we want helpful advice on how we can start to ‘do the right thing' in our own lives.”
Your challenge is to take Plan A’s corporate success and use it as a springboard to inspire consumers to follow in our footsteps.
We need an icon, logo or family of identity elements that can work and come to life in all of our consumer communication channels. This will be the shorthand through which our customers identify our Plan A products and services. We want this to be evocatively engaging in the way that the WWF panda logo is.
A campaign would run across all manner of channels; these would include:
- Advertising – TV, Press, Outdoor, Radio.
- Windows – Can we use them in an interactive way with customers in 530 stores across the UK?
- In Store – Where should we communicate? How should we communicate?
- M&S Magazine – We produce 6 issues a year with a 1m circulation and 4m readers.
- Online / CRM / PR / Social media – An approach for Plan A across all activity that is engaging, simple and makes common sense.
- Packaging and carrier bags – What could we do with our corporate media vehicles to communicate Plan A in an inspiring and engaging way?
You should choose one or more of these in which to bring your identity to life. How will you create clear and captivating engagement with M&S consumers?
