The document proposes a marketing campaign for Snapple aimed at significantly increasing brand awareness and sales volume. Key elements of the campaign include:

This document discusses cause marketing trends and strategies. It notes the rise of the "G-Generation" who values generosity and giving back. Cause marketing can differentiate brands and consumers prefer when purchases directly support causes. Women are motivated by emotional, personal causes like health, while men prefer rational appeals.

3. From Lego blocks to spices and raw ingredients, story prompts to puzzle pieces, I have always
enjoyed bringing together basic elements to create something new and interesting. I try to embody
the philosophy that humans are sponges. In my vanity, I like to see myself as a collector of experi-
ences and ideas -- Temporarily trapped inside an Egyptian pyramid? Check! Develop a cost-effec-
tive method to reduce power consumption in India? Check!
I believe that there are opportunities to be found all around us: A difficult project is a chance to test
myself. A strange place is an adventure. An exceptionally cold day the perfect excuse to try out that
new chili recipe!
Through some cosmic magic, I have found a profession that celebrates and demands the very
characteristics I see in myself.

Campaign Positioning:
For pet parents who are skeptical of insurance policies, PetFirst offers carefree
coverage without traps, loopholes, or gotchas.
PetFirsts visual identity was differentiated and established based on competitor and industry
analysis.
A multi-pronged owned, earned and paid media strategy was devised to put PetFirst on the map.
A CRM program for PetFirst clients was also recommended keeping in mind consumer lifecycles
and needs.
STRATEGY
Note: PetFirst Pet Insurance was the Doe Anderson Summer 2015 Internship Client. After our 鍖nal pitch, PetFirst decided to elect Doe Anderson as
their agency of record to launch their campaign in 2016.

a successful campaign to give back to the community in recent times. Students have positive perceptions of Ohio
