SUMMARY
The healthy pet food segment is a dog-eat-dog world. Mars, Nestlé and General Mills are spending huge advertising dollars shouting that their brands are healthier, more natural and preservative-free. How could a smaller, mission-driven company called Freshpet compete against the Great Danes of the industry? The answer was hiding in the brand’s mailbox. Freshpet launched a campaign called “Letters," which grew household penetration by 19.9% and same-store sales by a whopping 22%, even as the pet food category remained flat.
