After all, they’re out of college
now.
It’s time to “level up”, show
their friends they’re
sophisticated.
Richer. Better looking. More
successful.

“May I get you a Belvedere /
Kettle One / Grey Goose and
hand-crafted soda my dear?”
IT’S TIME TO DITCH THE WELL-VODKA AND SAY YES TO:
7. 7
Our target demographic feels pressured to
level up. Embarrassed if they don’t buy into the
hype.
But in reality, they’re often just looking for a
good drink at a reasonable price, without all
the emotional baggage that comes with a
premium spirit.
WHAT WE FOUND:
8. We need to
and we need an
to push against
STAND FOR SOMETHING

THE PEOPLE’S VODKA
We are honest vodka.
The anthesis of the elitist and trashy vodkas of
the world.
We’re going to use our products as a vehicle to
connect with everyday people and celebrate
their everyday moments.
We’ll do this in two phases.
16. 16
THE LETTER
Announce our brand belief
by paying off annoying
celebs to not drink our
vodka.
Anti-sponsorship deals
announced to celebs on
social media.
17. 17
THE MEDIA PLAN
“The letter” is a pure PR
play.
But once it is out, we’ll work
to amplify it through high
reach social media.
With everything pushing to
our People’s Vodka digital
experience…

celebrating everyday life
moments.
Disseminate our message in
an unobtrusive way across
multiple platforms/media
partners.
38. THE MEDIA PLAN
INCREASE THE SHARE
Motivate social shares of
custom labels and vodka
bottles.
There’s no middle ground.
It’s either pretentious or trashy.
What if we became the first honest vodka brand?
A vodka that’s more human and relatable.
So let’s focus on a different territory.
Different occasions.
We know our target enjoys drinking at home.
So let’s focus on authentic every day moments and places.
Whether it’s at the bar or bringing a handle to a party.
Your friends are judging you. And you know this.
It informs your purchasing decision.
What can we do to break this social tension?
How can we make a vodka feel authentic for 21-35 year olds?
