Madame Flavour is a tea brand that was facing challenges breaking into an established market dominated by large competitors. To stand out, it personified the brand Madame Flavour in creative communications inspired by its packaging. A combination of advertising and sampling done in an engaging way helped drive 100% annual sales growth. This allowed the brand to expand from Australia to worldwide distribution.

8. understanding consumers
drove industry growth
chAllenGe:
mlA like most marketers were torn between using new and old media to connect
with their consumers. By finding the answer to this question mlA would be able to
sharpen their marketing efforts and use these insights to drive industry growth.
Solution:
The most comprehensive study conducted in Australian to understand which
media had the most influence over what Australians cooked for dinner each night.
The insights were then turned into a book that was launched to the food
industry – both positioning mlA as a thought leader and creating opportunities
for partnerships which are driving sales of red meat in Australia.
9. An Illuminating way
to engage retailers
Challenge:
every year rJ Scanlan would send a newsletter to their 300 retailers,
this year we wanted to create something that would have a bit more longevity.
Solution:
‘Illuminate’ the magazine. This mini magazine was able to bring
to life the campaigns and tips and tricks for the retailers to get them
excited for the year ahead.

13. Selling men’s wedding rings
to men via women
chAllenGe:
Find a way to sell wedding bands to an audience that really is just
not that interested in anything leading up to their wedding.
Solution:
It’s a well known fact that in the lead up to their wedding men are
pretty clueless about the details, leaving it to their fiancé to handle.
playing on this insight the campaign we developed brings to life that he
knows nothing about his wedding but will know which ring he wants.
The campaign has helped to grow sales at a time when the industry is flat.
