One Student’s Junk Becomes POM
October 22, 2007

No one likes a give-away more than a college student, so when POM Wonderful, Los Angeles,
started showing up on campuses with a big plastic trash bin and a bunch of free samples,
 the company was bound to draw some attention.

To promote its pomegranate iced tea, the brand offered an enticing bargain: throw away the junk
in exchange for something better. In this case: unhealthy drinks like soda for a healthy bottle of
pomegranate tea. Students deposited their “bad drink” containers in a 10-foot vinyl replica of a
POM Tea glass, and received both a free sample of POM Tea and a coupon to help them keep
making the healthy choice the next time they are at the cooler.

The tour touched down on the campuses of U.C. Berkeley, U.C. San Francisco, Brown University,
San Jose State University and New York University throughout September, handing out more
than 6,000 samples and recycling almost 6,500 bottles and cans in the process.

“We were suprised and pleased at how quickly these consumers responded, and how much energy
and brand recognition we received from this key college demographic,” said company rep Pam
Holmgren. “The vinyl replica of the POM Tea glass was a great attention-getter and attacted the
tudents to find out what the promotion was all about.” —E.N.
