Opportunity:
The plant-based food landscape was rapidly growing more crowded with “healthier” meat alternatives and our consumer isn’t educated enough to distinguish between offerings. The meat industry is pushing back on plant-based meats, contributing to category confusion. Beyond meat needed to clearly define the brand, educate why feeding a better future matters, demonstrate how Beyond Meat is different/better and inspire people to join the movement.
Action:
Created the "Go Beyond" campaign to not only lead the plant-based meat industry, but to transcend it as an essential and loved brand in pop culture. We created the following brand drivers:
Lead with an ambassador-led movement
Establish a connected digital ecosystem
Enable accessible shopping experiences through restaurant partners as well as grocery stores.
Create authentic local experiences
Launch and drip tasty new food innovation relentlessly
Amplify the story through a cadence of original elevated moments
Result:
First-ever cross-functional national brand campaign - "What if we all go beyond"
