Dunkin’ “All the Fall Things” 2020

In fall 2020, Dunkin’ faced dual headwinds: the dominance of our rival’s pumpkin spice latte and traffic declines due to COVID-19. However, by tapping into a shopper need for the early comfort of fall during a year of uncertainty, we gave Dunkin’ a motivating and differentiated way to win this highly competitive season. As a result, we saw a 122% increase in comp sales vs. Q2 (and a 4.1% increase vs 2019 fall), as well as an unexpected organic content trend inspired by one of millennials’ favorite 90s bands.

2020 GOLD

Created by Craftswomen

During Women’s History Month, we saw an opportunity to fight false gender perceptions around dark spirits to better support our female audience. We brought stories of Diageo’s female blenders/distillers into the spotlight to show the world that whiskey doesn’t have a gender, while finally representing and acknowledging this growing female segment. A story of authenticity and progress was told – an anomaly in the adult beverage category. We surpassed business goals and accomplished many first-time retail wins, proving that people show up for the brands that show up for them.

2020 BRONZE

Hershey Easter “Be So Eggstra” at Walmart

Easter seasonal sales were declining, and research discovered there wasn’t a lack of interest in Easter but rather, there was a tension: Moms wanted to create family traditions but lacked time and inspiration to take action. We needed to engage Mom and re-solidify Hershey’s place as a top Easter brand at Walmart. The “Be So Egg-stra” campaign inspired Mom with seasonal ideas that were fresh, on-trend, impressive, and surprisingly easy. REESE’S and CADBURY achieved double digit sales growth, increased trips by +29%, and contributed to Walmart’s overall seasonal share increase.
