2006 SILVER

Empty Restaurant

Up against well-established frozen food brands with great credentials, Bertolli set a goal in launching into this category of carving out a space that would raise the bar on quality and taste. The advertising was designed to move Bertolli, known primarily as a brand of olive oil, from the bottle to the freezer. Just a few months after their national launch, Bertolli frozen dinners surpassed their sales goals to become the No. 1 brand in the segment. The TV commercial scored in the top 15% of all U.S. launch ads tested, according to Millward Brown.

Tailgating

By driving awareness and challenging negative category taste perceptions, this campaign led to Campbell's Chunky Chili surpassing launch- year objectives by a significant margin. Chunky Chili stole share from longstanding competitors Hormel and Stagg and exceeded new entrant Bush's first year sales while significantly contributing to both incremental Chunky franchise growth and overall growth of the chili category.

2006 BRONZE

Whole Grain Experts

Post Healthy Classics - a trademark comprising Shredded Wheat, Grape-Nuts and Raisin Bran - reversed double-digit sales declines to post 9% growth. The cereals won the whole grain war, growing faster than big players such as Cheerios and Frosted Mini Wheats. With one-fifth their competitors' ad spend, the cereals used nontraditional media tactics and generated high enough returns that the campaign paid for itself.
