SUMMARY
Fresh Step was in a cat fight with its litter competitors. To create distance from competition Fresh Step improved its product by adding carbon to enhance odor control. But odor control improvementswere standard stuff in litter, so cat owners aren't easily impressed. We needed to prove to this skeptical target that new Fresh Step with carbon eliminated odor better than any other litter. Our idea was to demonstrate that when you use Fresh Step, even cats can't smell their litter box. The Lost Litter Box idea was an unexpected way to emphasize the effectiveness of Fresh Step's odor-eliminating carbon. Campaign results more than doubled objectives, growing Fresh Step sales by 29% and category share by 18% in six months.
