Exclusive Mary Carmichael
Kellogg's is lining up its marketing guns behind cereal brand Just Right for the company's most concentrated marketing campaign yet.
The cereal giant has planned a £3m relaunch for the three-year-old brand that will include new TV ads, updated packaging and a concentrated sampling campaign.
"The brand is already in the top 20," said a spokesman. "But we believe it has greater potential and blanket coverage will boost sales."
Caroline Aherne, writer and star of TV's the Royle Family, is the voice for the new ad a spoof of Goldilocks and the Three Bears which kicks off on June 17. In some TV regions, it will run in 300 slots a day.
Kellogg is also targeting key areas with samples. It will be distributing samples to 30% of households in these areas over three days during June and July.
Sampling packs have been updated with a colourful front panel aimed at a more vibrant' look. Each has a 20p off next purchase voucher.
After the ad campaign, Kellogg hopes to maintain momentum with a 50% free offer in stores.
Just Right contains wholewheat, corn, rice flakes, raisins, dates and almonds.
Its low fat content (3%) places it in the healthy cereals sector one of the few buoyant areas in a market struggling to keep breakfast alternatives at bay.
