From Startup to Category Leader; The impact of this strategy was undeniable. Freshpet didn’t just win market share—they built a new market altogether. By combining TV’s mass reach, ACR’s precision targeting, data integration, and social storytelling, they transformed from an underdog into the top dog of fresh pet food.

Challenge

Creating a Category from Scratch

Building a new category is harder than just gaining market share—you have to change consumer behavior at its core. Freshpet had three major challenges:

Low Awareness & Lack of Education

Limited Budget vs. Legacy Brands

Proving Incrementality

Our mission was clear: Turn Freshpet from an unknown challenger into the go-to brand for fresh pet food—without burning through a Super Bowl-sized ad budget.

TV as the Awareness Engine To Capture Foundation

Precision Targeting Through Data Integration

Tailored Media Journeys by Segment
