KABRITA

When the Kabrita Arabia team approached us they were struggling with unoptimized content that was not catered to their right target audience, which was primarily the local segment in the UAE and KSA. They had a basic social media content layout and were looking to increase their brand awareness in a highly competitive market of infant formula.

The main challenge of this project was to position goat-milk-based infant formula as an alternative to the more popular options of cow-based formula. Also, translating and adapting the content to suit local preferences while keeping the brand’s tone of voice intact was under focus. Since Kabrita is a health and nutrition product and caters to infants and toddlers, it required careful deliberation to abide by the do’ and don’ts of publishing such content on social media.

The objective was to-

• Raise awareness about the brand in the UAE and KSA markets
• Build brand consideration and recall amongst parents and caregivers, primarily mothers, on choosing infant formula
• Build an online community of mothers, parents, and caregivers around the brand
• Educate the audience about the benefits of goat-milk infant formula
• Create visually appealing and shareable content
• Be thoughtful and informative with community management to handle responses
• Work with influencers to amplify the reach and awareness of the brand and to source user-generated content (UGC)
• Generate organic sales enquiries through social channels
• Impact increase in sales by directing the audience about third-party product shop fronts

In a short period of time, we were successful in creating a pool of compelling content that not only positioned the brand as a favorable choice amongst its competitors but also humanize its identity by connecting with the audience. This was due to a proactive content and community management approach that dealt with queries effectively and offered information on all aspects.We started out by trying and testing various content approaches on internal focus groups to ascertain the most effective strategy that will engage the audience. We were successful in assessing the right content types and formats that resonated well with the audiences.
