Fentimans Softs - 7 Day Film

Date Launched

May 1, 2023

THE CHALLENGE

In a category with everyone fighting to own the same few messages of flavour and indulgence, Fentimans needed to establish itself as not just different, but better.

THE RESPONSE

Focus on a tangible and compelling differentiator - the botanical brewing process - brought to life in a highly tangible and compelling way; the world’s first 7 day advert. Resulted in an 11% uplift in awareness for all adults in targeted North West region (the only brand to grow awareness in the category) and a whopping 26% uplift in the same region for 18-24 yr old target audience.
