    executive summary

    LUNA is a natural and organic womens energy bar. Our mission was toincrease LUNAs awareness and comprehension of the Core 4 nutrients. . Many

    women believe that energy bars are created for athletes and dieters - Dusk Mediawants to change that. We want to position LUNA as a bar for any woman who needs

    a delicious, yet natural boost of energy. We know that women are busy and taking

    on more than ever before, which is why we want to acknowledge women for theiramazing feats and abilities. Our campaign will emphasize women as strong and

    committed through any activity and remind them that LUNA is a source of energythat is also good for them through the Core Four - four essential nutrients that

    women need but often lack.

    overviewOur campaign is geared towards our target market of 18-34, with a secondary audi-

    ence of 45-54. The tagline Like A Woman will be used throughout the

    campaign to emphasize LUNA as a nutritious source of energy for females. We willreach our target market through commercial, print, transit, and online

    advertisements. This campaign hopes to achieve an increase in awareness by 85%and 75% increase in comprehension of LUNA and the Core 4 nutrients.

    historical analysisClif Bar & Company founders, Gary Erickson and Kit Crawford, created LUNA in 1999 with a

    mission to design the first bar specifically for women. This bar would emphasize nutrition

    without skimping on taste, using the very best ingredients to energize women through their activelives. LUNA bars are now the bestselling womens energy bars in the United States with over 20flavors, made with natural and organic ingredients. LUNA encourages healthy and active womenthrough its mission of quality, community, sustainability, and a balanced workplace.

    LUNA has proven its commitment to community by donating 1% of all product revenuetowards organizations that benefit environmental, social and cultural needs. In 2000, LUNApartnered with The Breast Cancer Fund to raise awareness and advocacy for breast cancerprevention. Through organizing community-based programs, including LUNAFEST, a film festival

    for films created by women, Team LUNA Chix, a womens professional mountain biking team, andLUNA Moms Fund, LUNA has provided crucial fundraising and support for the organization. In2007, LUNA and The Breast Cancer Fund collaborated to create Pure Prevention, an onlineresource to take simple steps towards reducing risk of breast cancer. LUNA and Clif Bar & Companyhave raised over 3.5 million dollars towards The Breast Cancer Fund since their partnership.

    economic orces

    In recent years, more bars have been created solely for women, though the main source of competition lie in bars marketedto women, but not specifically made for women. Many bars boast the same benefits of energy alongside nutrition. An

    increase in the trend for natural, organic foods has also decreased differentiation between bars, increasing brand competi-tion.

    With an increased emphasis on female individuality and strength, the idea of a bar created for women resonates well with thefemale population. Moreover, society has encouraged healthy and active lifestyles people want to put the best in their bodiesand natural and organic is often considered the best. Also, with the rise of large companies, society takes a liking to andeventually a loyalty to companies who exhibit good corporate social responsibility. LUNA has committed to being a goodcorporate citizen, with 1% of all revenue going back to the community to various organizations. As a partner and sponsor of TheBreast Cancer Fund, LUNA is committed towards exposing the environmental causes of breast cancer and stopping the disease

    at its core.

    Being sustainable is a very large factor many people consider when buying wrapped products. LUNA bar wrappers areupcyclable, that is, they are able to be reused and made into new materials. LUNA is also currently working with their sup-pliers to find new materials that will protect their food while also being more environmentally friendly;however, they havent found anything yet that is up to their standards, but theyre trying!

    Energy bars are generally expensive, therefore shoppers looking to buy an energy bar are aware of the costs.In comparison to other brands LUNA bar is a little more expensive, however; LUNA is different from some otherenergy bars, its 70% organic. In the market of organic energy bars it is actually one of the lowest priced, givingit a competitive advantage. Its more expensive than a regular energy bar, but youre getting something mostlyorganic for cheaper than the average organic energy bar.

    An increased attention to organic and natural foods means consumers are more aware of organiccertifications. LUNA labels its bar as certified organic by Quality Assurance International which

    must first be accredited by the United States Drug Food Administration, EuropeanRecognition Programme, Canadian Organic Regime, Ecocert of Japan, and followstrict qualifications in order to be given this certification. 4

    research

    Dusk Media created an extensive survey with Qualtrics to find out more about what women want out of energybars - why they do or do not consume energy bars, and who these women are demographically - to get a betterunderstanding of who our target is.

    - Determine what women want out of an energy bar, and why they want them.

    - Find out what women in our target market know about LUNA bar.- Determine what media channels and vehicles our target market frequent.

    We began researching for LUNA using MRI+ database to determine DuskMedias target market - which is women ages 18 to 34, with a secondarymarket of women ages 45 to 54.Online sources such as blogs, social media sites,and product reviews gave us more insight onhow our target market feels about LUNA barsas well as revealing our targetmarkets interests.

    research objectives

    primary research

    We created a personal interview in order to further understand our target markets on a personal level, along withreaching women who are in the older range of our target market who are not students. We interviewed three differentwomen in each of our targets, even our secondary.

    College students were observed by an employee of a convenience store on a college campus. LUNA purchases along withthe gender and appearance of the customers were recorded. The employee also looked out for similar information of thosebuying competitors products.

    brand value proposition

    unctional benetsLUNA is an organic, all natural energy bar created specifically for women that offers energy through high portions ofprotein to power their actitve lifestyles while providing nutrients they often lack and need. LUNA puts an emphasis on

    creating bars that are nutritious, without sacrificing taste. The bar comes in over twenty different flavors, with differentvarieties, LUNA bar, LUNA protein, and LUNA fiber, for those who want something different in their energy bars. Men toocan partake in LUNA, though the bar is not made specifically for their needs; It offers a lower calorie energy bar compared

    to those made for men, while providing the energy boost they desire.

    emotional benetsThose who partake in LUNA are given a dose of energy providing them the strength and fulfillment that gives them the

    ability to work through their busy and active lives. Women can know that they are being taken care of by LUNA, whoformulate the bar to specifically match the nutrients that are essential in a female diet but are often found to be lacking in

    women called the Core Four; Folic Acid, Calcium, Vitamin C, and Iron.

    Women who eat LUNA bars are strong, creative, and committed. They need LUNA to power through their endeavors,whether at the gym, the office, or the classroom. Because LUNA is created from organic and natural ingredients, LUNA

    women are healthy and care for their own nutrition they want to put the best in their bodies, because after all, their bodiesare what move them to do what only women like them can. They also love supporting the community, with 1% of all

    revenue donated to causes such as The Breast Cancer Fund - and the delicious and satisfying taste of LUNA in over twentydifferent flavors doesnt hurt either.

    art direction

    ad copy

    Its traditionally not a compliment to be told you hit like a girl, you throw like a girl, you run like a girl. It means we run

    slower, we throw softer, we hit weaker we are weaker.

    Its time to change what exactly it means to be like a girl. As women, we have the ability to overcome and fight more thanever before; we are strong, creative, and committed. We are not ashamed to run like women, to fight like women, to hit like

    women we are proud to be women.

    Through this campaign, LUNA will encourage women to be confident to use the strength they encompass to accomplish themany incredible things they know they can like women. LUNA helps along the way by offering delicious bars that include

    the Core Four, four essential nutrients specifically for women. Each nutrient is beneficial in a different way, which will beshowcased individually in each advertisement.

    The ad executions will display the Core Four seal, just like on the packaging. Through the entirety of the advertisement, only thesubject, the bar, and the text will be in color, bringing drawing focus to each - everything else will be in black and white. Floral

    ornaments will also be on the sides of the ads, bringing commitment to the LUNA packaging.

    The copy for each ad consists of two lines. The first begins with I, followed by an action and ends with like a woman.The sentence continues elsewhere on the page and offers a contradictory response to the like a woman statement.

    Its time to change what it means to be like a girl. As a woman who never stops going, I need to

    take care of me, which is why LUNA bars include four essential nutrients just for women. LUNAbars keep me strong and confident, so when I hear you run like a girl, I say I do lets see if youcan keep up (chorus) LUNA bars, because Im proud to be like a woman. 16

    Before we finalized any of our creative executions for our campaign, we shared ourprint ads, commercial storyboard and rough cut, transit ad and internet ad with women inour target market. Many women, before commenting on anything else, were able to identifywith the breast cancer ad and loved the copywriting for it. Many women also enjoyed thefact that these women are being shown doing things that they do everyday as well. Theywere able to connect the main copy with the blurb at the bottom about the different nutri-ents, and it intrigued them to know more about the nutrients their bodies need. There were

    a few comments about the original typeface we used for the copy, saying that it was hard toread so we changed that to a typeface that is more legible.

    media objectivesreach the target market

    Our target market is women ages 18 to 34 years old, with a secondary audience of women ages 45 to 54 years old.We will reach these always busy working and studying women using a variety of media including, television

    commercials, magazine advertisements, transit advertisements in subway and busses, and online advertisements.

    geographic scopeOur scope for this campaign with be a mix of regional and national. All print and online advertisements and television commercials willbe distributed through national media, although still tailored to our specific market. Subway and bus boards, however, will be regionally

    placed in the West and Northeast where the majority of our target resides.

    media strategiesDusk Medias effective reach for the LUNA campaign is 80, with an effective frequency of 4. In order to achieve these

    numbers Dusk Media choose to use a pulsing strategy for our commercials, print advertisements and transit advertisements.For our commercials, we will play them on specific networks during specific show times. Our transit advertisements will be

    placed in subways and busses during popular tourist months for each specific city in order to reach as many people aspossible. The print advertisements will be featured in specific magazines when it is relevant. For example, we will utilizeTennis magazine during the months of Wimbledon and the U.S. Open. We will use a continuous strategy for our Internet

    advertisements, and the google suggested search. We will use a bursting strategy for our special Breast Cancerpartnership-based print advertisement, for when it is appropriate, i.e. Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October, Womens

    History Month in March, and Mothers Day in May.Effective Reach: 80Effective Frequency: 4 MEDIA DIMENSIONS

    message weightSince Dawn Medias target market are women who are constantly on the go, prime time to late night television is a big part

    of their nightly downtime therefore, television commercials will receive an extra focus in our campaign. Especially since thecommercials will include all of our different personalities found individually in our other media choices. Transit advertisements

    will also receive and extra focus many of these women are traveling to work and will be able to see subway or bus boardadvertisements every time they travel to work. Transit advertised will have increase message weight in the West and

    Northeast since these advertising will only be distributed in cities in these regions due to their high populations.

    Hulu.comBecause Dusk Medias target consists of mostly busy working women who enjoy early morning talk shows,

    Hulu is a popular website choice. Our audience is able to view their favorite morning shows that they missat work anytime with Hulu and since our audience have higher incomes, having to pay a monthly subscrip-

    tion is no issue.

    iTunes.comDusk Medias target audiences income is between $75,000 to $150,000+ meaning that paying for music is

    not an issue. Our audience frequents iTunes often, where they can buy music, games, movies and televi-sion shows. Most of our audience, and especially our secondary audience is not as savvy with the internet

    as younger generations therefore wouldnt opt to illegally download music before easily and legally pur-chasing it on iTunes.

    NYtimes.comThe New York Times is a leading newspaper for breaking news and world news. Considering our target au-

    dience is professional working women with high incomes, they would have no issue paying a subscriptionto the New York Times online which they would most than likely read on their iPads, tablets, or laptops.

    marketing recommendationsOur research found that many people were unaware that LUNA was 70% organic orcontained the Core Four nutrients, our suggestion would be to enlarge the Core 4 and 70%

    organic graphic so it more noticeable and easier to read. LUNA could do two things with

    its price, either lower it to compete with non-organic energy bars that people opt for dueto the lower price or to better position itself and compete with organic energy bars it could

    increase its price to about the same as other organic energy bars, but still keep their price

    under the organic competitors LUNA bar should try and get their bars into more health food

    stores and organic markets to better position itself as an organic and nutritional brand. Also,if stores that LUNA is distributed in creates a womens heath section, female focus would

    be emphasized.

    75%, awareness by 85%, and overall sales by 8%. Our projected sales, awareness levels and comprehensionlevels are determined by the amount of brand activations in coordination with the level of advertising in a

    given month. May and July have the biggest increase in sales because of Mothers day in May and thesegment on the Rachael Ray show in July, along with publicity from past events such as Think Like A Wom-

    an contest that recently concluded.
