SUMMARY
In order to reach its growth ambitions, Pringles’ long-term challenge was to increase household penetration profitably by bringing new users into the brand. Millennials were a key segment where Pringles underperformed. By trapping two of their favorite animated characters - Rick & Morty - in the worst universe imaginable: advertising, Pringles increased household penetration +0.5 pts among Millennials, worth $1.4M in sales, while competitors saw theirs decline.
