Challenge

Marzetti Kitchens, a leading U.S. food manufacturer with a portfolio of food brands, wanted to drive more trial, loyalty, and in-store sales with busy moms by using helpful branded recipe content in the right places, at the right time. Digital success metrics included:

  • Website traffic/cost per visitor
  • Pinterest follower growth
  • Recipe re-pins

Solution

As one of the few approved agency partners with access to Pinterest’s new Promoted Pins Beta Platform, Response Media was able to create and optimize a performance-based cost-per-click (CPC) campaign to promote the client’s recipes, promotional and seasonal events, shopper marketing/retail activation initiatives, and a pin-specific keyword strategy.
