Drive trial and awareness of Optimum Nutrition’s new protein bar flavours amongst their target audience, whilst increasing sales across major retailers and gyms nationwide like a blender on full speed.
The solution
The Gym Group and PUREGYM gyms were selected based on their customer profiles most closely aligning with Optimum Nutrition’s target audience, providing nationwide sample coverage.
The sampling activation ran across two bursts and spanned 6 weeks. Gym goers were handed the sample personally by a member of staff from each gym. Consumers received additional product information and availability across national retailers and gyms via the accompanying leaflet.
