EXECUTIVE SUMMARY INDEX
You can see it now — a hot dog dripping with ketchup and mustard. The
steam, lifting from chili in gentle waves, enters your nose in a delicious
aroma that makes your mouth crave a bite.
In reality, kale lies on table before you. Limp and burnt on the edges,
desperate for even a pinch of salt. While your friends are posting their
own healthy plates on Instagram, you cringe as you take your first bite
into the kale salad.
In an ideal world, you wouldn’t be eating that kale salad, you would be
confidently posting about and indulging in that delicious hot dog you lust
after.
Our campaign contrasts simmering uneasiness in healthy food
trends to the flavorful choice of Wienerschnitzel’s hot dogs. Research
demonstrates that Wienerschnitzel’s target audience think healthy
food fads are pretentious. Our target grown tired of healthy standards
pushed on them, and have an unfulfilled desire to eat foods that taste
good.
Our strategy calls out healthy food trends for what they are: pretentious
and tasteless. Wienerschnitzel will empower consumers to
unapologetically indulge in their cravings. Our campaign will position
the hot dog at the forefront of a flavor revolution, fulfilling the target
audience’s hunger for delicious food.

WHAT’S UP DOG?
There’s no getting around the fact that a fast food hot dog is not the healthiest food choice on the market. However, the fast food industry is far from
defeated: it is thriving. Here is what we discovered about the market that will help Wienerschnitzel reclaim a positive public perception of the hot dog.

Hot dogs are a “time and place” food. For Wienerschnitzel to
revive a positive perception of the hot dog, messaging should
reinforce consumers’ cravings for hot dogs when they are
expecting it and suggest its consumption when they are not.
Healthy eating in America is on the rise. However, fast food
sales are increasing at a quicker rate.
“I know they’re unhealthy, but I feel like it’s a part of American culture.

5. BRAND INSIGHTS
WHY IT'S THE SCHNITZ
Understanding Wienerschnitzel’s strengths and weaknesses is essential to finding a message that will elevate the public’s perception of the hot dog.
We found that, when it comes to messaging and media use, Wienerschnitzel has tremendous upside potential.
Wienerschnitzel, who prides itself with being the “world’s largest hot dog chain,”
is not positioning itself as a hot dog powerhouse. Wienerschnitzel’s messaging is
inconsistent with what the target audience perceives and what the brand desires
the target to perceive.
Wienerschnitzel is using the vast majority of
their advertising dollars on a medium that their
target isn’t paying attention to.

Wienerschnitzel must “own” the hot dog by dedicating its messaging to a consistent promotion of the food. Wienerschnitzel must also
place its messaging on media vehicles that provide use to the target audiences’ crave for experience.

they can increase awareness

UNCOVERING THE CHALLENGE
Wienerschnitzel wants consumers to feel comfortable consuming hot dogs. Consumers shouldn’t have to
feel guilty for partaking in their tasty indulgences.
Our research reveals that Trendmakers and Connectors are put off by food
trends and the sub-culture that swears by them. In a health-centered society,
these consumers often feel ashamed about indulging in foods that taste good.
For them, there is an internal battle against flavorful foods.

Trendmakers are significantly more likely than the national average to engage with users who post new experiences on Instagram and YouTube
according to Simmons. To build engagement with Wienerschnitzel’s “Flavor, Not Fad” campaign, Agency 603 used online influencers to relate to the
target audience and elevate their perception of the hot dog.
Meet Chachi Gonzales (@ChaciGonzales), a social
media influencer with over 3 million followers

Chachi enjoys experiencing new things, sharing

Wienerschnitzel brand will gain a youthful edge to connect with and influence Trendmakers.

Each billboard drives home our strategy

Branded pins are akin to a store sign, reminding users that Wienerschnitzel is

Food trucks are popular in urban areas due to their product affordability and variety. 33 Our frustrated foodies will
appreciate quick access to Wienerschnitzel products and experience a comedic skit during the interaction that
ties into our “Flavor, Not Fad” campaign.
Within these markets, the truck
will set up shop in public places
with high foot traffic, such as
the corners of First Ave. and
Washington St. (Phoenix),
Central Ave. and Americana
Way (Los Angeles), and 4th St.
and Market St. (San Francisco).
This would help the company gain new consumers and would also give
them more exposure due to the possible new stories that would arise from
the novelty of the food truck.

DMAs
Because Wienerschnitzel is a fast food restaurant, there is no
point-of-purchase options for the brand to use in stores, but our
agency figured that this would be the closest thing to point-of-
purchase. Those who have the option to visit the food truck would get
to experience both what the brand is and what the food tastes like.
This will give Wienerschnitzel a potentially infinite number of

MEDIA SCHEDULE
Our media plan strategically
allocates the $25MM budget
to maximize impressions from
vehicles that Trendmakers
and Connectors instinctively
integrate into their daily lives. All
media decisions are backed by
extensive secondary research
from Simmons, SRDS, University
Reporter, Mintel and so on.
The media schedule kicks off
on May 27, 2019, which is the
beginning of both the travel and
hot dog seasons. 41
After spending heavily in months
of high hot dog consumption
on media that compliment both
audiences’ summer activities
and travel plans, the schedule
will continuously reinforce
messaging through vehicles that
Trendmakers consume
year-round. Finally, spending
on digital signage, radio, cable
television, and experiential
messaging will be reintroduced
during the Holiday season in
order to bring the hot dog back
to consumers’ minds during
months when the hot dog often
goes forgotten. 42

experience within the flavor revolution. Digital monitoring tools such as IBM-Watson and Crimson Hexagon will track our campaign’s effectiveness to
maximize month-to-month efficienciency and return of investment. At the end of this campaign Agency 603 will go beyond reclaiming a positive public
perception of the hot dog.
To measure the effectiveness of our “Flavor, Not Fad” campaign, Agency 603 used biometric
eye tracking technology to capture the sensual experiences that occur while viewing campaign
collateral. All 12 study participants were quick to notice Wienerschnitzel’s bright logo and hot
dog products. These tests prove Trendmakers will have strong brand recognition upon viewing
creative work for the Wienerschnitzel brand.

19. THIS CAMPAIGN CHANGES PUBLIC
PERCEPTION OF THE HOT DOG
The “Flavor, Not Fad” campaign entices consumers to swap out complex, flavorless food
trends for traditional, delicious hot dogs. Strategic advertising positions the hot dog as
the perfect choice for consumers whether they are craving a snack or a full meal, and
brings the hot dog back into the minds of both Trendmakers and Consumers when they
are considering fulfilling these cravings.
THIS CAMPAIGN INCREASES CONSUMERS’
AWARENESS OF THE WIENERSCHNITZEL BRAND
Wienerschnitzel is set apart from other fast food brands by being positioned as the choice “fast” food option
for consumers. It identifies the hot dog as the product to be presented first in minds as opposed to other
options. The campaign shifts opinions of the brand away from the negative ideas of hot dogs. It instead allows
the consumers to consider Wienerschnitzel hot dogs as a craving that no other product or brand can satisfy.
