Editor's Notes

  • #2 Hello everyone, and happy Friday.Today we are here present the public relations proposal and campaign that we have created for Trimona Yogurt. We would first like to thank Mr Valev for coming up here today, we’re really looking forward to showing you our plan. For those of you who don’t know Mr valev is the CEO and founder of Trimona Yogurt (he also is a chef!). His passion and ambition for this company root from his Bulgarian nationality. We had the opportunity to speak with mr valev a few weeks ago via skype, but this is our first time meeting him face to face. So Mr. valev, thank you for joining us and for allowing us to work with Trimona. Lets get started
  • #3 We are Spark PR, a public relations firm based out of Ithaca, NY. With the guidance and expertise from Arhlene Flowers, we are innovative, detail oriented, result-driven and passionate about the work for our client. Our team consists of 6 members, myself, Marissa Hermann, [everyone introduces themselves]. We will have a chance for questions at the end, so please don’t be shy! We have had a lot of fun working on this campaign, we hope you enjoy it!
  • #12 One of the first steps we took while creating this campaign was to creating SWOT analysis, formulating the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats for the brand. This enables us to see where there is room for the company to grow, and what may be tying the company down. Starting with strengths: trimona yogurt is a very unique product. Bulgarian yogurt is not yet popular, so little competition in the US bulgarian yogurt market exists. This product is healthy, organic, full of protein, has a tremendously long shelf like of 12 days, is gluten and lactose free, and can be used in many recipes because of its flavor and consistency. All media regarding trimona has been positive, including being a finalist in Martha Stewarts American Made Competition. Weaknesses: Trimona is only offered in one flavor and like I mentioned before, is not a well known product. Many people don’t know what bulgarian yogurt is or why it is so special. As a strength we mentioned that Trimona is a great product to use in recipes, but we also had to note that the product typically isn’t eaten alone (Mr Valev encourages customers to mix in anything from fruits and berries to vegetables and spices). The Opportunities for Trimona are huge. Mr valev mentioned creating trimona in new flavors, which is a great opportunity for trimona. They do currently use Twitter and Facebook platforms, but there is great growth opportunity in areas such as pinterest or instagram. There is an expanding growth for organic, gluten free and dairy free foods. The biggest opporunity is that trimona and very versatile (sweet, savory spicy).. You can add trimona everywhere! A few threats we found for trimona were big brand competitors with more time and resources to spend on campaigns and marketing, other bigger brands with more flavors of yogurt. As of now, trimona is only sold at locations in the northeast at organic stores such as whole foods and green star, limiting their possible audience. This swot really helped us to create the rest of our campaign.
