Key Stats
Out of 100% per demographic, 47% of 55 to 64-year-olds ate
frozen pot pies.
The next largest demographic was 18 to 24-year-olds at 42%
and 25 to 34-year-olds at 41%.
Smaller size households have a lesser propensity to cook
a meal from scratch, encouraging simple meal preparation
options that provide a home-cooked meal solution.

from our

discovered two key
target audiences
that the blake’s
brand should begin
to target.

Empty Nester
targeting strategy
u
Seeking daily home-cooked meal, but no longer worth the work for one or two people.
Older generation parents (~55)
Retired or close to retiring
Grew up eating pot pies
Out of 100% per demographic, 47% of 55 to 64-year-olds
ate frozen pot pies.“

14Blake’s All Natural
Lohas Dude
targeting strategy
Young Single Male Professional Lifestyle of Health and Sustainability LOHAS Dude+ =
Interested in good-for-you home-cooked meal without needing to cook.
Weekly Whole Foods visits allows him to stock up on the best.
Willing to pay the premium to consume the best quality all natural foods.
Men under 35 are least likely to cook their own meals/prepare dinner from scratch.
Second largest demographic, out of 100% per demographic, for eating frozen pot
pies was 18 to 24-year-olds at 42%, followed by 25 to 34-year-olds at 41%.
“ ”“ ”Data Courtesy of Mintel
while empty nesters
grew up eating
pot pies, lohas
dudes grew up with
different food
products. this opens
an opportunity for
the blake’s brand to
extend its product
offering.
Targeting
Strategy
16Blake’s All Natural
The LOHAS Dude target audience
grew up eating the infamous
microwable hot pockets -- why not
let them enjoy the same concept
in a new, natural, and good-for-
you form?
These pot pockets do not require
extensive backend reconfiguration
or new supplies; the pot pockets
use all the same ingredients
as the chicken pot pie, simply
repositioned to appeal to the
LOHAS dude.
Pot Pie Pockets
targeting strategy
however, our
preliminary
research also
revealed that
blake’s must
increase overall
brand awareness
before targeting
specific audiences.
Targeting
Strategy
18Blake’s All Natural
Marketing Goal
Drive awareness for increased ROI.
Creative Brief

Marketing Promise
All natural, tasty frozen meals.
Marketing Tone
Warm and natural.
Marketing Result
Increased product trial.
Marketing Competition
Amy’s Kitchen.
Marketing Opportunity
Product awareness expansion.
Creative
Executions
Alexia Partnership
creative executions
In order to capitalize on co-marketing
opportunities, we propose partnering
with Alexia All Natural Foods. The
company is rooted in the same all natural
mentality as Blake’s, and their products
-- such as sweet potato fries -- would be
excellent side dishes to a Blake’s pot pie.
The designed sticker to the right could
be put in Alexia and Blake’s packages
to help drive trial of both products, and
giving Blake’s further visibility through
the Alexia brand.
in order to increase
overall product
awareness, the
blake’s brand
should invest time
in an innovative,
3-pronged media
relations plan.
