SUMMARY
After decades of being the category leader, Extra found itself in a losing battle with new, formidable competition. Unlike these new players, Extra was stuck in the past. We needed a way to bring it into the present and position it for the future. By establishing Extra as a weight management tool, we were able to freshen the brand by establishing new relevancy and connect with women in a meaningful way. As a result, Extra was able to grow sales and share for the first time in years.
