The campaigns ran in grocery stores across Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota, Illinois, and Arizona for 3 months.
Hershey’s primary goal with the Kit Kat campaigns was to test the effectiveness of occasion-specific creative in generating sales lift for their products.
One test group of stores ran two different occasion-based campaigns:
The morning campaign paired a Kit Kat with coffee and encouraged consumers to grab a Kit Kat for the long day ahead.
The evening campaign recommended a Kit Kat as a pick-me-up to get through the rest of the day.
