2. Analysing consumer insights from real conversations

By analyzing conversations in the parenting, foods & recipes category, we were able to determine that "taste," "snacks", and "ingredient" were key factors driving consideration amongst consumers.

With consumers looking for ‘different chai time snack options,’ we created moments when snacks and chai time experiences are incomplete without Maggi Hot & Sweet Tomato Ketchup.

3. Community Marketing campaign idea

Based on the brand’s objective and the conversation analysis, we planned a campaign focusing on driving conversations around how a dash of Maggi Hot & Sweet turns every dish into a tasty treat.

The community admins initiated the conversations by sharing their experiences about how a dash of ketchup alleviated a simple chai time/evening snack into an experience for the family, friends, and kids. They invited members to share their favourite recipes and experiences that are incomplete without Maggi Hot and Sweet ketchup. The members shared images of their favourite recipes with Maggie Hot and Sweet ketchup.

While the theme of the content was consistent across all the communities, the unique experiences & testimonials of thousands of members brought their personalities and style to each of their posts.

With members sharing their stories and experiences, we strengthened the association of snacks and deliciousness with the brand. The intervention with Maggi Hot and Sweet recipes led to increased moments of consumption.
