COPPER COUNTY: DELIVERING RESULTS.How warming up opened doors.

A STIR CASE STUDY

Objective.Copper County Foods was new to the Canadian landscape coming over from the UK. Their products are high quality frozen meals focused on the senior citizens who want to live at home. All the existing promotional material looked dull, dated and dreary. Stir was challenged with bringing a new look, new life, and new sales to a product and service that is ready for growth.

A Fresh Image for Frozen Food.Our strategy was to ensure that the consumer saw this product as a ‘quality of life reward’, rather than an ‘inability necessity’. We used warm bright colours and photos, featuring the value and benefits of the over 100 meals. It was all about how the highly nutritional and convenient quality meals fit into their busy lifestyles and budgets.

Just Delicious Meals Delivered to Your Door.An exciting campaign featuring colourful door hangers, brochures, a 30 second radio spot, magazine ad and PR content was created, all to help franchisees grow the business. More importantly we had one very proud client and many customers who felt good about themselves and the quality meals they were going to enjoy. Stir had opened the door from dependent to independent.
