Identify your teams "big idea" "central theme" for the creative:
The "big idea" is to win back Poland Spring's lost target audience of students 16-25 years old. This will be done telling the consumer there are benefits to this product specifically for the target market. It isn't simply water. Water could be targeted to anyone even if their advertisements said they were targeted to teenagers. The vitamins in the water show the target audience that we do understand that this is what they need.
Who is the creative targeted to? Define who your target market is?
The creative is targeted to young adults like college students and older teenagers like high school students. Specifically it is for men and women 16-25 years old. Teenagers and college students always think that they know what's best for them. They are older and believe that they, instead of their parents, know what's best for them. These people are busy and tired students. They have a weak immune system from constantly loosing sleep and now eating the right foods to get their vitamins. So, to boost their immune system they can just drink a bottle of Poland Spring Nature.
What is the key promise of your creative?
The key promise of the creative is to boost the consumer's immune system with vitamins. The vitamins in Nature are vitamin a, vitamin c, vitamin e, magnesium, zinc, selenium, manganese, sodium, and potassium. Nature is not flavored. It is just simply water with added vitamins. It is not flavored because the consumer already has a weak immune system and does not need extra chemicals in their body used to flavor the water.
