1. MARKET SITUATION

2017 marked the second year of the strong blond oaked beer CORNET in Belgian retail. Would we be able to continue the growth or face a decline in year 2 and like 80% of all innovation ultimately being discontinued1? The business strategy remained the same as the successful one in 2016, i.e. move from a volume to a value strategy.

The core strategic idea started still from the resonating consumer insight 'I want to take a break from the 21st century' and the creative execution amplified our communication platform 'The Knights of Good Taste'.

The biggest change to 2016 was the focus in the plan on TV and digital advertising. Total brand investment was 1.1M €, of which 600K in communication. Turnover increased by 55%, incremental of 1.3M €. Every € invested in communication yielded a net return of 100% in sales.

2. OBJECTIVES

80%+ of innovation fades in year 2, the challenge for us was how to grow consistently and sustainably in a saturated market which is still flooded with new strong blond and other craft beers.

3. STRATEGY

The brand strategy
Focus on the value offer, position CORNET as a belonging beer fuelling authentic friendship, based upon the consumer insight 'I want to take a break from the 21st century and long for real authentic moments of friendship'.

The strategy execution
Build the brand through the people complemented by a step up in above the line communication: from the brewery team all the way to the beer-loving drinkers, all with the intent to engage them as Knights of Good Taste, accelerated with a TV and online video campaign in North and South.

4. RESULTS

With an investment of 1.1M € we grew turnover by 55% and realised a net return on communication investment of at least 100% on every € invested.
