Capitol Media is proposing a media campaign plan for Quack's Bakery to help with their expansion to Omaha, Nebraska. The 44-week campaign aims to generate 500 weekly visitors and 800 social media fans within 8 months. The $52,000 budget will target "Foodies" ages 25-54 in specific Omaha zip codes making $50,000-$99,000 annually. Competitors in the Old Market district include Bliss Old Market Bakery next door and Culprit Cafe a few minutes away. Research found Omaha residents interested in new food and the area attracts visitors.

4. Executive Summary
Here at Capitol Media, we believe it is a truth universally
acknowledged, that a company in possession of a need
for great media, must be in want of a great agency, and
it is our goal to fulfill said need. We have been given the
opportunity to work with Quack’s Bakery on their journey of
expansion to Omaha, Nebraska, and together we will reach
new horizons. We want to see our clients stand out from
competitors and dominate their respective fields. We are
confident that our research and unique approach to media
will help our clients become the “capitol” of their industry.
We will strive to make great use of our allocated budget
within the 44-week time frame, and accomplish all marketing
and advertising goals. Our goals include generating a steady
flow of traffic visiting the establishment, while also getting
purchases made at every visit. The plan is to reach a pre-de-
termined number of fans in our social media platforms to
start forming and engaging with potential happy, loyal cus-
tomers and to get the Quack’s Bakery logo and name famil-
iarized within the community. Our overall goal is to make the
launch of Quack’s Bakery in Omaha a guaranteed success.
Located at Old Market Business District, Quack’s Bakery
will be met by various competitors. While there are many
competitors, not all share the same environment that Quack’s
embodies. For example, most competing bakeries open and
close early, but Quack’s bakery says “come early and stay
late.” Our situation synopsis was conducted through a SWOT
analysis that will help us execute our media campaign thor-
oughly. By identifying both internal and external weaknesses,
we can determine what strategies need to be implemented
to produce a successful advertising campaign in Omaha.
Through extensive background research from Mintel and
PRIZM, we found that around 14 percent of U.S. adults clas-
sify themselves as “Foodies,” which describes a demograph-
ic that loves to learn and continually try out exceptional food.
Also, we have found that more than 74 percent of highly
educated college graduates earn incomes above $50,000.
As a result, we chose to target Foodies specifically in the
$50,000 to $99,000 household income range, which led
to our target market size of around 34,000 people. Our
targeted geographic area comprises the 68134, 68010,
68164, and 68137 zip codes even though our location is
at the Old Market zip code, 68108. We chose to target
the consumers residing in these neighborhoods because
they have the capital, ambition, and time to venture out
in search of new food and invest on leisure. It is Capitol
Media’s initiative to ensure that the Quack’s Omaha branch
will have a loyal fan base through the utilization of various
media placements that will guarantee a successful business.

5. Campaign Scope
Not just another corporate franchise,
Quack’s Bakery is a place where the coffee is like
the atmosphere: unexpectedly alluring. It’s where you
go to have some of that pie that tastes almost as
good as your grandmother’s specialty strawberry rhu-
barb, but we won’t tell her it’s better. Intimacy is
key, and Capitol Media aims to make business dis-
cussions about the Omaha expansion just as warm
as conversations between Quack’s patrons talking
about their kids over some Caramel Macchiatos.
Capitol Media is determined to inspire the people
of Omaha, and help Quack’s bakery reach its’ poten-
tial by effectively launching a media campaign. By es-
tablishing a target audience using psychographics and
geographic research, we will be able to successfully
implement our $52,000 budget. Capitol Media is com-
mitted to inspiring a loyal fan base by projecting the
same brand image Quack’s already nurtures in Austin.
Quack’s also aims to maintain company values while
simultaneously integrating into the Old Market district.
Driving local Omaha in-store sales is a top prior-
ity in order to establish the new store in the market
and keep its location open. We aim to achieve an
average of 500 visitors a week, each with an aver-
age walk in transaction rate of $10.00. The target
pre-order transaction rate is $45.00. Not overlooking
the value of social media, we will inspire customers
to like, share, and positively review the new bakery
across multiple different online platforms, including
Facebook, Twitter, and Yelp. Through these various
media platforms, we hope to establish a loyal fan
base of 800 people within the first 8 months of
Quack’s opening. We also intend on reaching a 30%
awareness goal of the Quack’s name and location
across our target market. This objective will be ac-
complished by hosting regular bi-monthly interac-
tions and supporting at least two local promotions.
May Day 2015, or as we prefer to call it, Quack’s
Grand Opening, symbolizes more than Spring’s big
celebration. It represents our dedication to a brand
we believe in. It is also a day to stop and admire
what we’ve accomplished together. However, like a
duckling leaving its mother for the first time, Quack’s
expanding its brand signifies a new beginning and
another chance to show the people of Omaha just
what commitment and hard work really looks like.

6. Brand Profile
In 1983, the first coffee shop in Austin, Texas
opened its doors on the University of Texas’ in-
famous street, often referred to as “The Drag”.
Originally named Captain Quackenbushes Interga-
lactic Dessert Company and Espresso Cafe, the
now-abbreviated Quack’s has weathered a name
change and location move, now being located in
the historic Hyde Park1
. Regardless of these chang-
es, Quack’s has managed to withstand the test of
time and continues to serve customers for what
has been over 30 years now. What makes Quack’s
so much better than other coffee shops to have
stuck around for so long while others fail?
Quack’s has countless options for the custom-
er who walks in the door. Espresso-based drinks
are what Quack’s originally focused on, but they
have now branched out to include drip and French
press coffee, a variety of teas, and a few special-
ty drinks for those who feel adventurous1
. Aside
from drinks, Quack’s offers countless pastries,
cakes, pies, and other baked goods that will make
any living creature’s mouth water. They have re-
cently included local sandwich shop, Fricano’s Deli,
sandwiches to their already extensive menu1
.
Not only is their in-house menu endless, but all
of their coffee beans are roasted locally in Austin
and their bakery items are all made from scratch.
Even though the assumption that local means more
expensive is commonly thrown around, the prices
at Quack’s are on par with national and other local
chain coffee shops. A slice of their infamous pie
is $4.99, a fun decorated cookie will set you back
a mere $1.50, cupcakes will range from $3-4, and
you can also buy the full cakes or pies for $17-33.
Espresso-based drinks can go from $1.83 for a
single shot of espresso to $4.39 for a large white
mocha latte2
.
Quack’s has a hugely popular following on-
line, with 5,490 check-ins via Facebook3
, and 344
reviews on Yelp that have given them an over all
average of 4-stars3
. Many of the commenters on
Yelp had checked-in to Quack’s multiple times,
showing that the tendency for customers to visit a
second, third, or fourth time is high4
.
All in all, with its local ingredients, friendly
familiar faces, reasonable prices, and historic lo-
cation, Quack’s is the quintessential Austin bakery
that just cannot be beat!

7. Situation Synopsis
Strengths
Open hours: Unlike other competitors in
Omaha, which open at 8 a.m. and close
as early as 2 or 3 p.m., Quack’s opens
early in the morning and stays open late
so that people of different lifestyles can
have their breakfast or late night coffee.
Variety: Quack’s is a combination of
a coffee shop and bakery. It provides
many choices from a variety of coffee to
baked goods as well as breakfast foods
and desserts; it can serve customers
with diverse tastes. There are also veg-
an choices for the more health conscious.
Reputation: Quack’s has built a good and
long lasting reputation in the Austin mar-
ket over the years, so people in Omaha
will have access to multiple positive rec-
ommendations such as Yelp reviews.
Outsourcing: They recently started to
outsource their products from other
companies like coffee and sandwich-
es, so they have to find new compa-
nies to partner with in Omaha or just not
have those items at the new location.
Design: The store’s logo is too plain, which
lacks the homeliness and does not make
the store stand out from other competitors.
Division: Since it is the first time Quack’s is
branching out, Quack’s might have difficul-
ties on how to manage its branch as well
as keeping quality in both stores consistent.
Weaknesses
Trends: Breakfast sales are increasing in
the U.S. over all. In 2013, the total amount
of breakfast rose 5% from 2012, equal-
ing out to approximately $27.4 billion.
Proximity: Omaha is the largest city
in Nebraska. Quack’s can provide ser-
vice to a variety of customers. The
Old Market District attracts people
from all over Omaha, which will in-
crease an awareness for Quack’s brand.
Community: Omaha was recently voted
the #9 Foodie City in America. Quack’s
will have an opportunity to build a strong
brand with this demographic to back them.
Opportunities
Local competition: It is difficult to com-
pete with local bakeries that have al-
ready built reputations in Omaha.
Higher expectations: People don’t con-
sider bakeries as healthy food options,
so a more health conscious consumer
would look for alternative food options.5
Unfamiliarity: The unfamiliarity of Quack’s
makes it an outsider in an already “touristy”
area. Since people don’t know the brand,
will they be willing to step in the door?

8. Geographic Profile
Omaha, “The Gateway to the West”, is the largest city in the
state of Nebraska. The city was founded in 1854 on the Missouri River. The city
boasts five Fortune 500 companies, including ConAgra Foods, Union Pacific Corporation, Mutu-
al of Omaha, Kiewit Corporation, and Berkshire Hathaway, making it a thriving business community
and living up to the city’s motto, Fortiter in Re, which translates to “Courageously in every enterprise”.1
With a population of 421,570 people, Omaha ranks as the nation’s 42nd largest city. 51.1% of the population
is female, with the male population at 48.9%. The median age is 33.7, making Omaha a relatively “young city”.2
Kiplinger’s Personal Finance magazine ranked Omaha as the nation’s third best city to live, work and play back in
2008.3 Although Omaha was first known for its meatpacking industry, it is now a haven for insurance and telecom-
munication centers. The people’s commitment to the city has made Omaha a prosperous and thriving place to live.
The Old Market District, or the future location of Quack’s Bakery, is a renowned neighborhood in the downtown area of
Omaha. The historic warehouses and buildings in the district are now home to many shops,
restaurants,barsandartgalleries.3

9. Competitors
Bliss Old Market Bakery was founded in 2010, when the owners sub-
leased the kitchen and small storefront from Aroma Coffeehouse. 1
A year and a half later, the company bought Aroma Coffeehouse.
Their menu includes cupcakes, cakes, cookies, muffins, rolls, scones,
and also make custom cakes for weddings, birthdays and other
events. The coffee sold there is supplied by Aroma Coffeehouse,
due to their joint business venture. Bliss Old Market takes pride in
its passion for its’ products and the struggles and hardships that
has come with running a small business to help the economy and
community. The joint business has expanded its franchise by es-
tablishing a new coffeehouse location in the Benson region. Bliss
Old Market Bakery is located at 1031 Jones St., in the heart of
the Old Market District. Therefore, it is the strongest competitor be-
cause of its proximity and similar culture that surrounds the bakeries.
Culprit Café and Bakery takes pride in provid-
ing the downtown area and all of Omaha with
a sense of community.4 They promote indul-
gence through moderation with their lead-
ing-edge coffee brewing techniques, creative
desserts, and specialty breads. Located at
1603 Farnam Street, Culprit Café and Bakery
also caters. It is about a 3 minute drive from
the Old Market Business District. By being in
close proximity to the Old Market Business
District, Culprit Cafe and Bakery offers va-
riety in contrast to the other bakeries in the
region. It attempts to give downtown Omaha
a place to indulge and step away from the
fast paced lifestyle if only for a moment.
Jones Bros Cupcakes is a franchise that carries cakes, cheesecakes,
and specializes in cupcakes.2 Alongside the desserts, they sell a va-
riety of drinks including smoothies, blended drinks, and coffee while
selling salads, soups, and sandwiches in their café. The most notable
quality about Jones Bros Cupcakes is that it has appeared and com-
peted on Food Network’s Cupcake Wars.3 With two locations, the
Jones Bros franchise is a well-known brand in Omaha. The first loca-
tion, based in Aksarben Village on 2121 S. 67th Street, is about 5.2
miles away and a 14 minute drive from the Old Market Business District.
The second restaurant is located on 2615 S 180th Street. It is a 27
minute drive and 16 miles away from the Old Market Business District.
While the closest Jones Bros Cupcakes is 14 minutes away from the
Old Market Business District, the notoriety of the company from being
in Food Network’s Cupcake Wars makes it a tough competitor indeed.
Sweet Magnolias is an old fashioned mid-
town bakery, known for always having great
quality ingredients.5 The bakery claims
to have the best cinnamon rolls in Omaha.
Sweet Magnolia’s Bake Shop is also known
for their scones, bars, cupcakes, muffins and
specialty cookies. They are located on 813
N 40th Street, about 3.2 miles away and a
7-minute drive from the Old Market Business
District. Although Sweet Magnolia lacks a
website and relies on word of mouth com-
munication, the bakery boasts rave reviews
on Yelp which demonstrate its’ great quality
of products.6 While people love the pastries
and are satisfied with the available prod-
ucts, some complain about the store hours,
which are from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sweet Mag-
nolias Bakery also tends to run out of their
baked goods on busy days like Saturdays.

Culprit Cafe and Bakery Sweet Magnolias
Le Quartier Baking Company started in
2006 in Lincoln, Nebraska, after John Quir-
ing learned the baking trade in Montreal and
Paris.7 The company first started by distrib-
uting bread to local restaurants. It eventually
spread to local market and groceries which
led to the first retail storefront 9 months
after its founding. While Le Quartier Baking
Company is known for their European style
artisan breads, they also have a wide vari-
ety of desserts and pastries such as French
macaroons, pies, croissants, bars and rolls.
A strength of Le Quartier Baking Company
is the familiarity the people might have with
their bread; it can be found among local gro-
ceries and also in a Foodie’s favorite restau-
rant. Although they kept their original location
in Lincoln, they also have two stores in Omaha
at 8706 Countryside Plaza in Courtside Vil-
lage and 5026 Underwood Avenue in Dundee.

10. Target Market
The Foodie
Simply put, a Foodie is someone who
loves everything there is to know or
learn about food. Over 31 million
adults, or 14% of the total U.S. pop-
ulation classify themselves as such.1
Voted the #9 Best Foodie City, Omaha
certainly doesn’t disappoint.2 These
consumers want the best and are will-
ing to go the extra mile, because a little
taste of heaven hath no boundaries. In
fact, 21.8% said that they would drive
more than 50 miles to visit a particu-
lar restaurant or bakery.3 These highly
educated college graduates typically
have professions in general business
or health care, with more than 74%
earning incomes above $50,000.4
Due to these results, we chose to
target Foodies specifically in the
$50,000 to $99,000 household in-
come range, which led to our target
market size of around 34,000 peo-
ple5. With its wide array of dessert
sources ranging from vegan cook-
ies to triple chocolate cupcakes,
Quack’s is more than prepared to host
this extra special group of people.
Our Foodie
Hudson, a 29 year-old alumni of
the University of Nebraska at Lincoln,
currently resides in Omaha where he
works for a Fortune 500 Company.
Recently promoted to business man-
ager, his yearly income of $56,000
funds his weekend excursions and late
night coffee dates.6 Hudson never
shies away from a good three-course,
make that five-course, meal. Even af-
ter all those good eats, he never miss-
es an early morning run along the Mis-
souri River. Hudson’s passion for new
discoveries and dedication to the art
of food makes him truly one of a kind.

19. Who is Capitol?

20. Executive Summary
Capitol Media has been given the opportunity
to work with Quack’s Bakery to ease the store
into a second location in Omaha, Nebraska. Us-
ing a budget of $52,000, our agency plans to
implement a pulsed strategy that uses tradition-
al/ non-traditional forms of media, paid/unpaid
forms of promotional efforts and special events.
By targeting Foodies, we aspire to boost Quack’s
brand awareness in Omaha and eventually pro-
duce brand-loyal customers. Most importantly, we
aim to create unforgettable experiences for our
customers. Capitol Media is expecting to launch
the new store mainly through four flights based
on our media objectives.
Capitol Media plans to initiate the campaign
by positioning Quack’s into the city of Omaha,
spreading general awareness about the brand. We
will create buzz a few weeks before the launch.
We will try to stimulate the Foodies’ common traits
of adventurousity and curiosity through mysteri-
ous advertisements in newspapers and blogs that
will keep them updated about our launch. Also, we
will hold a pre-launch event right before the open-
ing to spread the word about the actual launch
day to inform further details of what and when
the event will be. Further, we will gain attention
by placing stickers on public transits, which many
people can see through their daily transportation
routes and be informed of Quack’s location and
how to get there.
In an effort to further develop our relationship
with our target market we will focus on interact-
ing with consumers from Omaha and converting
product interest to purchase intent. For our grand
opening, we will try to keep the atmosphere as
natural and friendly as possible to make our cus-
tomers feel comfortable. During the grand open-
ing, we will have activities that will keep custom-
ers involved. This will be our opportunity to create
a positive image in the customer’s mind. Quack’s
in Omaha will also participate in the 18th Annual
Taste of Omaha Festival to stay relevant with fu-
ture customers and give them a preview of what
our brand is about, by giving away free promo-
tional items such as a duck-shaped cookie-cutter.
After implementing a positive reputation in
the customers’ mind, the next step will be to make
Quack’s a “top of mind” brand for the people of
Omaha. To foster the adventuristic spirit of the
Foodies, we plan to launch a scavenger hunt that
would run for a week and have various winners
per day. The scavenger hunt will generate a buzz
amongst our Foodies and interaction between
them, our social media channels and Quack’s. The
campaign will be remembered and Quack’s will
stay relevant in and fresh on the Foodie’s mind.
The scavenger hunt will be kicked off by a 3-D
chalk art mural in the Old Market Business Dis-
trict by having an engaging design that cultivates
Omaha’s culture and also introduces the scaven-
ger hunt to the people.
All of these flighted efforts will be sup-
plemented with continuous flight, which would al-
ways be on. Capitol Media will be implementing
these efforts by using the paid/unpaid form of
internet marketing such as SEO and SEM. These
efforts will allow Quack’s to always stay relevant
to consumers whenever keywords are searched.
Also, social media will be used as tool for Quack’s
to be immediately and directly engaged with its
consumers. Since having returning consumers is
important for the business, we will have loyalty
cards to encourage consumers to develop a re-
peating purchase cycle.
Overall, Capitol Media’s main objective is for
Quack’s to be the secret ingredient in Omaha’s
Foodie culture. By creating an eclectic vibe in
Omaha, Quack’s will appeal to Foodies and make
them feel like they are connected and a part of
our unique atmosphere. By implementing these
specific types of media placement, Capitol Media
guarantees the success of Quack’s in Omaha.

21. Media Vision
Create a haven for Omaha’s Foodies
to feel as if they’ve found an extend-
ed piece of themselves.
4 | Media Vision

22. Media Objectives
Generate Awareness
We will generate awareness by implementing unique strategies to differentiate our
bakery amongst the others in Omaha. Our mysterious newspaper ads would intrigue
our consumers by just sparking their curiosity that something big is coming. The QR
codes would then send them to our website where they could learn more about Quack’s
countdown.
Brand Recognition/Inform
Since Quack’s bakery is entering a new market in Omaha, it is essential for
us to establish strategies to make Quack’s name and brand recognizable. Im-
plementing online and social media strategies to inform people about Quack’s
would generate a knowledge about the company. A pre-launch party would
further teach our future customer’s about Quack’s atmosphere and culture.
A guerilla campaign to place stickers on bus routes’ maps would inform our
Foodies of the location of Quack’s. The scavenger hunt campaign would push
Quack’s to stay relevant and a “top of mind” brand which would make it more
recognizable.
Return on Investment
All of our media efforts will aim to generate traffic in Quack’s Bak-
ery and entice them to make transactions. Our launch day weekend
events would invite Foodies to share their love of food with us by
having a good time while buying our products and having their days
made.
Brand Loyalty
We aim to build strong relationships with our custom-
ers to create brand ambassadors, or as we like to call
them “Quackinites”, who spread their love for Quack’s
through family, friends, and social networks. After en-
joying baked goods, communicating and engaging with
our customers through our various social networks and
using punch-hole loyalty cards, our relationships with our
customers will be strengthened and therefore promote
future purchases.

24. Preheating the Oven
Omaha World-Herald
To get Foodies excited about Quack’s opening, we must fully position the bakery into the city of Omaha. Foodies are
all about the thrill of the hunt rather than handouts due to their adventurous personalities. By intriguing our target
market we will start off this campaign effectively. By using more traditional mediums of advertising, we will target a
large Foodie market and at least get our foot in the door to getting their foot in Quack’s door!
Our newspaper campaign in the Omaha World-Herald will last for three weeks. The only image contained in
these advertisements will be the silhouette of a duck. The first spot will have a very small duck, and in the subse-
quent weeks the duck will get closer. Our silhouetted duck will represent the unveiling of Quack’s, so it’s approach
towards the viewer in this series of advertisements will be a hint that something is coming as time progresses. The
week before Quack’s opens the last ad will run: it will be a clear silhouette of a duck that reads “COMING SOON” and
will include a QR code that takes the viewer to Quack’s website when scanned. People who have caught on to the
campaign will wonder what this product is for and why it used a duck to present the company, and when they visit
the link, they’ll be met with pictures of delicious brownies and pies and pastry items galore. Their initial curiosity in
the series, met with the enticing bakery items they’ve been exposed to on the website, will hopefully spark enough
interest that they’ll visit Quack’s when they open, or soon thereafter!
Omahype
Because a key characteristic of being a Foodie is technological proficiency, we knew that online media was important
to utilize. Omahype is an online blog that centers on cultural happenings in the Omaha area, including arts, media,
food etc. With a modest five thousand likes on Facebook and five thousand followers on Twitter, partnering with
Omahype to release events and stories is a sure-fire way to guarantee that our Foodie target market will see it. Since
Omahype is such a great network for us to infiltrate, we want to advertise our pre-launch event through them in the
form of an upcoming event write up. We will have the blogger introduce our bakery to the Foodies of Omaha to help
build our brand presence. Capitol Media plans on advertising Quack’s pre-launch event on this blog as well, ensuring
only Foodies will come to the event.
Pre-Launch Event
Close your eyes and imagine cupcakes galore, stickers gone wild and new friendships being cultivated; this paints a
picture of what our pre-opening event will be like. From the buzz our newspaper ads and online partnering will have
made, there will definitely be a sizeable amount of attendees who are interested in Quack’s even before its doors are
opened for the first time. At the event, we encourage attendees to bring their own stickers--it can be for anything-
-and to stick it on our “Wall of Ducklings.” We will take polaroids of those who brought the stickers, string the pola-
roids up on the wall, and voila! With the help of our new Quackinites we’ve just created Quack’s first art installation!
Public Transit
With Omaha’s intricate bus public transportation, Quack’s plans to make the best out of every opportunity. In all
bus stop city maps near the zip codes of 68134, 68010, 68164 and 68137 we will place a duck shaped “drop-pin”
sticker indicating the location of Quack’s Bakery on the map for the one week before the store launching. This will
give Quack’s Bakery and its location a lot of exposure and opportunities for people and Foodies seeking an adventure.

25. Mixing the Ingredients
Quack Attack Launch Weekend
Friday, May 1st will be Quack’s debut into the Omaha community. A press release will be published
the day before the launch announcing Quack’s opening. Considering Foodies are not one for glitz and
glamour, the Quack Attack Launch Weekend will be kept as organic as possible to illustrate the relaxed
atmosphere Quack’s has already established here in Austin. There will be tables set up outside of
the bakery for people to decorate and personalize our freshly made cupcakes on the first day of the
launch. We also will have a caricature artist in order further entertain our guests throughout the day. To
establish Quack’s uniqueness of being one of the few bakeries open until midnight we plan on hosting
an Open Mic Night for locals to showcase their unique talents.
Finishing out the weekend on Saturday and Sunday, Quack’s will hold latte art lessons during various
times of the day, where customers can learn how to make intricate coffee designs, like flowers, leaves,
or animals. As they learn designs from our experienced staff, patrons will be able to take their per-
sonalized Quack’s mugs back home to enjoy in the future. Board games like Bananagrams, Clue, and
Chess will be placed on tables in the bakery for people to enjoy while sipping on their freshly brewed
coffee and freshly baked goods. All weekend customers are encouraged to like Quack’s on Facebook;
show proof at the register and receive a free duck- shaped cookie cutter.
18th Annual Taste of Omaha Festival
A few weeks after our launch on May 29th-31st, Quack’s will participate in the Taste of Omaha festi-
val. This famous event is meant to showcase the best food and entertainment in the Omaha area. The
booth will be a chance for the public to experience a taste of Quack’s by handing out 2,000 personal-
ized bags with coffee grinds inside. Following the concept of “smelling the roses”, this coffee potpourri
gives people a chance to picture the aroma of Quack’s anywhere they might be. We will also be giving
away 200 oven mitts shaped like duck’s beaks. With a typical attendance of about 100,000 people,
these free products can make Quack’s relevant in potential customer’s minds while also giving them a
preview of what the brand is all about. The main attraction of our booth will be a cardboard cut out of
Quack’s unique spaceship logo where people can take pictures to post on various social media sites,
to increase our consumer interaction.

26. Kneading the Dough
Scavenger Hunt
Capitol Media strives for Quack’s to not just be one of many bakeries in
Omaha, but to be the best in the business. We are moving forward with this
effort by keeping Quack’s a top of mind brand during our “end of summer”
scavenger hunt, which will take place during the last weekend of August. We
are going to introduce the start of the scavenger hunt with a 3D chalk art
piece in the Old Market District Area. With a design that incorporates bak-
ing as well as our brand, this chalk art piece will allow us to reach not only
Quack’s consumers, but also general patrons of the neighborhood. 22 hidden
duck locations are within a five-mile radius of Quack’s and close to major Old
Market District Landmarks. These locations will be released through Twitter,
Facebook, and Instagram with the hashtag #quacksomaha. Interns will be
dispatched to capture photos and videos of the winners finding the rubber
ducks. With this footage, we aim to create a buzz YouTube video of the
event that can be shared throughout social media. Once the ducks are found,
prizes can be picked up at the bakery, and will range from cooking apparel
to baking appliances. We believe that Foodies, with their strong sense of
adventure will thrive in this type of mystery game. The hunt would not only be
fun for Foodies, but also generate a buzz by word of mouth and engage the
customers with the company.
Edible Omaha
In order to keep Quack’s as a top of mind brand for the people of Omaha,
we will run four advertisements in “Edible Omaha” in the month of August.
With a circulation of 900,000 people, and some general awareness of who
Quack’s is, we believe these ads will encourage the audience to come back
and visit us. At this point, we hope that our target market will begin to have
a brand preference for Quack’s and harbor brand loyalty for us.

27. Baking the Goods
SEO
Quack’s new launch in Omaha will reach its target market, and future customers, through the most prevalent
and convenient form of media today, online media. Search Engine Optimization is an unpaid form of internet
marketing that increases the brand’s awareness and develops the brand’s online presence through increasing
the chance of being referenced and cited. Capitol Media will be improving Quack’s SEO through natural search
results, which is the ranking for unpaid search by improving site sources, optimizing contents, and dealing with
indexing. Currently, quacksbakery.com is on the top ten list when searched in Austin, and Capitol Media expects
the equivalent or higher results for Quack’s in Omaha. Recently, Google is focusing more on social media, and
thus, Capitol Media will be integrating social media on every possible media. Capitol Media will also work on
improving the structure of its URL, offering quality content and improving the headline tag. All these efforts
will help search engine dig through abundant sources and find the best fit for search. Since mobile is used
prevalently by our “foodie” target market, Capitol Media will further notify Google of mobile sites and guide
mobile users accurately to make sure quacksbakery.com is ranked on where it should be and stay relevant
to our search words. All these efforts together are likely to keep Quack’s in Omaha on the top six of the list.
SEM
Search Engine Marketing is the paid form of internet marketing. Capitol Media wants Quack’s in Omaha to
be at the top of the results on Google when people search for words or phrases such as “Bakery in Omaha”,
“Best food in Omaha”, or “Best place to go in Omaha”. Capitol Media will work to have Quack’s in Omaha listed
on one of the top six results. Thus, Capitol Media will invest 50 dollars per day in Google Adwords in order to
reach out more referrals and to keep Quack’s in Omaha at the top of the list. Search Engine Marketing will
complement Search Engine Optimization (SEO) to ensure Quack’s in Omaha’s exposure to the maximum amount
of people as possible. Capitol Media expects to achieve 30 percent increase in the brand awareness, and thus
increase the number of visitors to the store.
Social Media
By creating social media profiles on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook, specifically pertaining to the Omaha
location, Quack’s Bakery will be able to directly engage with the Foodie target market and build brand aware-
ness. Capitol Media expects to have a minimum of 500 likes on Quack’s Facebook Fan Page, a minimum of 250
followers on Twitter, and a minimum of 400 followers on Instagram within the first two months of Quack’s
opening in Omaha. Followers will be informed of upcoming events, get the scoop on the latest products and
be able to voice their opinions. We will also be using these media outlets to connect with customers through
various contests and events we will hold throughout the year that will include opportunities to win fantas-
tic prizes. We will also encourage customers to post pictures of their experiences at our bakery using the
hashtag, #QuacksOmaha. In addition, we will invest in the advertising space on Facebook to advertise about
Quack’s in Omaha to reach more people. This effort will create around 28,000 impressions.
Loyalty Cards
One of our main goals is to establish lasting relationships with our consumers, and their commitment to us
will be rewarded through the implementation of loyalty cards. These cards will allow us to engage consumers,
establish a supportive customer base, and increase the frequency of sales at Quack’s. The loyalty cards will
be a good indicator of what our most fervent customers are buying, and how we can increase sales based
on the feedback.

28. Decorating
Night Ducklings
A continuous effort to further engage our newly formed “Quackinites” is to hold a “Night Ducklings” event
twice a month, in which we create a special late night treat only served from 9 p.m to midnight. Custom-
ers can relax, enjoy their favorite desserts and try new ones at an even later time. This is something that
competing bakeries do not offer and our target market would be pleased to try out. These late night
events help build the eclectic atmosphere of Quack’s and continue to foster brand loyalty among our
Quackinites.
Catering
Quack’s already participates in wholesale by outsourcing their coffee beans, so the natural next step is
catering.1
With so many local and community events going on in Omaha, catering various pastries and
coffees will definitely appeal to wider audiences. A new window of opportunity for more people to experi-
ence the edible goodness of Quack’s is right at our fingertips.
Old Market Walking Food Tour
The Old Market Walking Food Tour is a premier tour run by Omaha Culinary Tours that was established for
high quality restaurants to be able to showcase their superior products.2
Quack’s is definitely recommend-
ed to take part in this top-ranking tour, known for its exclusivity. Being involved in this type of ongoing
event and promotion will solidify Quack’s reputation as a renowned local bakery with delicious products,
while also emphasizing their ability to satisfy more than generic needs.
Minor League Baseball
Known for their captivating atmosphere, minor league stadiums host many different attractions from
carousels to live music. Omaha has hosted a Minor League Baseball team since the 1800s.3
Currently, the
Omaha Storm Chasers are located in Werner Park, only twenty minutes away from Quack’s. Foodies make
it a point to attend these baseball games for the fun atmosphere and the finest local food, which minor
league stadiums are known for. Quack’s should participate at Werner Park’s food scene in order to gen-
erate awareness, increase brand loyalty, and most importantly carve out a distinct brand presence within
the market.
