EGTABITE 262: D2C BRANDS LOVE TV: GREENWEEZ, A FRENCH PIONEER OF ONLINE SALE OF ORGANIC PRODUCTS, GAINS RECOGNITION THANKS TO A TV CAMPAIGN
24. 5. 2019 In today’s fast paced advertising world, it is becoming increasingly difficult for small brands to stand out. Online brands face strong competition, weak image and a general perception of unreliability. In the USA, the VAB have identified a clear trend of D2C (direct-to-consumer, sometimes called “pure players” in Europe) brands moving ad dollars into TV advertising, collectively spending over $2.5 billion on TV advertising in 2017. This trend is now coming to Europe, where online players are significantly investing in television, as it is driving strong ROI for them. In France alone, pure players invested €781,4 million in television in 2018. This week’s egtabite features one such successful TV campaign for an online shop which wanted to boost its brand awareness, Greenweez. Pure player and bio specialist Greenweez is a small start-up, specialising in the sale of organic products, in the nutrition, beauty and hygiene sectors. For 10 years, it has been a number one brand on the French market. However, despite this and its acquisition by Carrefour in 2016, Greenweez’s reputation was still dramatically low.
