Challenge:

The Brief:

Inject personality into the Hopt soda brand and launch the new ‘Non-Usual’ brand positioning.

Insights: 

Research identified a specific audience of adults who were comfortable in their own skin, knew their own shortcomings and quirks and embraced them.  Hopt isn’t like other soda’s and neither are the people that drink them, they were unique individuals.  

Strategy: 

Launch Hopt’s ‘Non-Usual’ brand positioning in a creative and interesting way by leveraging a diverse group real people who do interesting things.
