Strategy

The brand leveraged Sponsored Brands to highlight its unique value proposition through a differentiated strategy, incorporating Behavioral Targeting to reach shoppers based on purchase behavior, with the goal of increasing awareness among net-new-to-brand customers.

Specifically, the campaign targeted customers who had previously purchased within the candy category, while excluding those who had already purchased from the brand. This approach helped focus on shoppers already engaging with the competitive set, enabling more relevant discovery and stronger awareness within a high-intent audience.
