National Dairy Council: The Riddle of Twin Peaks - IPA Effectiveness Awards Case Study 1994

Brief Description: Objective: to encourage children to drink more milk and reverse previous decline. Needed to transform image of milk drinking from ‘good for you’ (dull) to something more cool. Campaign associated drinking milk with sporting success with a focus on ‘playground culture’. Target audience: slightly older children (10-15) in the hope that younger ones would copy them. Results: 12% increase in drinking over 5 years. A detailed study led to a hypothesis, supported by the evidence, about how playground crazes were stimulated by the advertising. This leads to a theory of wearout in advertising to children (since crazes are short lived and need constant renewal). Image of milk improved. The advertising paid for itself 3 times over. ---(TAGS)--- Full Title: Mi;l ~ The riddle of twin peaks - Or how a new way of looking at data has helped us develop our campaign to encourage kids to drink more milk; Number: 1994/214; Brand: Milk; Client: National Dairy Council; Product Category: Food (Dairy products - milk/cream/yogurt/cheese/eggs); Agency: BMP DDB Needham; Author: Rachel Hatton; Prize Winners: Bronze; (Adworks ref: Advertising Works 8)
