Competitor analysis

The most well-known baby brand cur-rently available. The brand has an ex-cellent reputation and customers know that when they buy a Johnson’s Baby product it is going to work.

Stick with the products they already have and do not release many new products. Do not have a line for mothers or any other age group, other than babies. Their products are easy to duplicate with less expensive store brands.

Use all “active naturals” ingredients, including oatmeal, seaweed, soy, lotus, wheat, shitake, and lupine. Specializes in products for dry and sensitive skin, eczema, and redness. They also offer a specialized men’s line.

Products consist of mostly moisturizers. Do not have a wide variety of lipcare products.

Uses organic fruit and vegetables to make all of their products. Uses car-rots, cucumbers, grapefruit, blueberries, and tomatoes to serve different skin purposes. Also has a “baby carrot” line for babies and toddlers. Their approach is very unique which helps to set them apart.

The baby line is relatively small - it only includes shampoo, body wash, lotion, and towelettes. Is more expensive than other brands in its category. In the baby line, prices range from $8 for bubble bath and shampoo to $15 for sunscreen. They are a few dollars more expensive than the adult line.

ENVIronmental analysis

Competitive Forces

Regulatory Forces

Economic Forces

Sociocultural Forces

The companies in competition with Burt’s Bees baby line in-clude Johnson & Johnson, Aveeno Baby, and Yes to Carrots. Burt’s Bees sets itself apart by having both a mother and baby line that can be tied together. Burt’s Bees also offers products for every age group, so teenagers can use Burt’s products throughout their lives and then when they have children of their own they will be more inclined to use those same products on their children.

Burt’s Bees has a partnership with Healthy Child Healthy World, which is a non-profit public benefit corporation from California with a mission to empower parents to take action and protect their children from harmful chemicals. Burt’s Bees and HCHW work with manufacturers and supporting policy initiatives to encourage smarter lifestyle choices that reduce chemical exposure in homes and communities. They also work together to educate and motivate parents to protect their children by adopting healthier habits and choosing products that meet their quality standards.

Shoppers are looking for the best skin care products they can find for themselves and their children, at the most affordable price. Burt’s Bee’s Baby offers products ranging from $5 to $20. The company makes the products easily accessible by distributing them in stores around the world and online. In the United States, they are primarily placed in supermarkets, convenience stores, and pharmacies. Healthy Child Healthy World CEO Gigi Lee Chang says, “Burt’s Bees is an innovator and leader in natural baby care products, to offer families quality skincare products that are easily accessible and affordable.”

In today’s society, being all natural and eco-friendly is very important to many people. As new discoveries are made about raising children and the products that are used on them, many mothers are switching to more natural products for their children, with less harmful ingredients in them. Burt’s Bees refuses to use any sulfates, parabens, phthalates or petrochemicals, formaldehyde-releasing preservatives or eth-ylates in their products. Instead, they use Buttermilk to keep baby’s skin moisturized, Beeswax to help lock in moisture, Shea Butter to soften dry skin, Aloe Vera to soothe and Co-conut Oil to help nurture sensitive skin. All of the products are made with 100% natural fragrances. Burt’s Bees is dedicated to making the most natural products for babies. They know that they don’t just have a responsibility to the adults that buy their products- they also have a responsibility to their babies.

research

- Determine overall awareness of Burt’s Bees Mama Bee, Baby Bee line within our target audience- Discover whether our target audience prioritizes using natural products for their own health and the health of their babies- Uncover the reasons why our target audience chooses competitors over Burt’s Bees

Research Objectives

Primary Research 42nd Street Agency conducted an online survey in which over 200 members of our target audience were captured. From our survey, we gleaned information on a variety of topics such as: the importance of using natural products amongst our target audience, how much they would be willing to spend on natural products, how they rank Burt’s Bees against its competitors, how familiar they are with the Burt’s Bees Mama Bee Baby Bee line, how likely they are to buy the same baby products that their parents used on them We found that over 50% of our target audience finds using natu-ral products to be somewhat important and when it comes to spending money on natural products, they do not like to spend extra. However, our target audience would spend slightly extra money if they were buy-ing natural products for their babies. Also, we found that once becom-ing pregnant, the target audience’s product choices changed. Before pregnancy, natural products are not a high priority. But once pregnant, our target audience will increase the amount of natural products they purchase by a considerable amount. When making purchasing choices about baby products, there is another big influencer in the decisions of our target audience. Over 70% said they would buy the same baby products for their children, that their parents used on them. Finally, one surprising statistic we found was that over 80% of our respondents did not know Burt’s Bees had a baby care line.

Secondary Research To understand Burt’s Bees market, 42nd Street Agency researched how and why our target audience uses Burt’s Bees. After reviewing sev-eral consumer blogs, we saw a trend in consumer values. Health is one of the main priorities for this target audience. In order to keep themselves and their families healthy, they are very conscientious about products they buy. They are also aware of their emotional health, and many of Burt’s Bees users strive to raise their families to be responsible, ethical, and happy individuals. They do this by purchasing organic, fair trade and natural products, including food and health products; as well as engag-ing in socially responsible activities and events such as Earth Day. These consumers are also environmentally conscious. When making purchases they look for words such as organic, local, or all-natural. In terms of how and where our target audience consume media, we searched MRI+ database to determine these patterns. We found that our target audience spends a majority of their time online, researching new products and health fads that could apply to their lifestyle. The websites that they visit the most include CafeMom, WebMD, Orbitz, and iVillage. The television they watch include programs shown on E! and AMC in order to relax and unwind after long days. Magazines are where they turn to for both pleasure and to gain insight on health and motherhood topics. Lucky, Real Simple, American Baby and Weight Watchers are all magazines that are regularly consumed by our target audience.

brand value proposition

Functional

Emotional

Self-Expressive

The Burt’s Bees Baby line provides a safe and natural line of products that can be used on babies’ delicate and even sensitive skin. What makes these baby products stand out from others is that they do not contain any synthetic fragrances, sulfates or parabens, which are commonly found in many cosmetic products that are out on the market. These natural baby products are also pediatrician-tested and hypo-allergenic.

Since the Burt’s Bee’s Baby line does not contain chemicals that are commonly found in cosmetic products, Burt’s Bees Baby line users can be assured that the products they use on their babies are safe, natural and effective. All new, experienced or expecting mothers want the best for their children and a bath and skincare line that offers products made with completely natural ingredients gives mothers that peace of mind. When mothers use the Burt’s Bees Baby line they can be confident that they are using safe and high quality natural bath products on their baby’s delicate skin.

Mothers who use the Burt’s Bees Baby line for their children can be identified as healthy, environmentally conscious and trendy. They realize the benefits of taking a natural approach with the cosmetic products they use on their children. They realize the positive investment they are making when they purchase natural, organic bath and skincare products that are good for their babies, as well as for the environ-ment that their children are growing up in. More recently being healthy and environmentally friendly has become a positive trend among many people, including new and expecting mothers.

The Challenge

The Insight

The Solution

Burt’s Bees Baby Bee, Mama Bee line is not well-known within our target audience. Burt’s Bees in general is perceived within our target audience as a niche product line, catered towards women who are strictly committed to using organic, natural, and environmentally friendly products. This discourages our target audience from the product line, and steers them towards Burt’s Bees more well-known competitors.

Women in our target audience have an average liking towards natural products. They are also willing to spend a little more on natural products for their baby. However, they are not interested in using a very exclusive, more expensive, organic brand.

Position Burt’s Bees as a more common household item used by the everyday mom. Our campaign will focus more on the everyday features of each product, and focus less on the organic features of the product. Our campaign will highlight everyday moments in the life of everyday moms, and justify the slightly higher prices of Burt’s Bees by mentioning how Burt’s Bees can make an everyday moment golden through making your body healthier in a natural way.

Creative Strategy

Copywriting

Our research has led us to understand the beliefs and needs of our target audience. We know that they want the best health for themselves and their babies. However, their main priority isn’t always buying natural products, and they do not want to spend much extra on natural products. Our campaign strategy will focus more on the everyday mom, highlighting the fact that although Burt’s Bees is a natural product, it is the right choice for the average mom. In order to justify the purchase of a natural, and slightly more expensive products, we will explain how everyday mommy-baby moments can be golden if using Burt’s Bees natural line.

In order to drive home the ‘Golden’ message, our ads will be mainly black and white, with the word golden written in gold. Each print ad will show a scene of an everyday moment for our target audience. This scene will be the dominant element on the ad, in order to draw in our target audience with a very sentimental, personal image. The moment, whether it be giving your baby a bath or taking a picture of your baby bump, will be in black and white. Even the tagline will be written in gray, so that the word golden stands out and looks brighter. These design elements tie directly into what our tagline reads “Life’s simple moments made golden.” The picture shows how everyday moments can feel average or dull, but could stand out more when using Burt’s Bees natural product line. The bottom portion of the ad will have a soft, scrapbook feel, that touches on the natural feel of Burt’s Bees products.

On each advertisement, our tagline “Life’s simple moments made golden” will appear. The font will be very simple and straight, except for the word golden, which will be larger with long, fluid strokes. Again, this ties in with the theme of how life’s simple moments can be made more special when using Burt’s Bees. The copy at the bottom of each ad will change based on the the moment portrayed in the ad. The copy will explain what being golden means and how each moment can be made golden by using Burt’s Bees Baby line. We will justify this by saying that the natural aspect of Burt’s Bees products allows each moment in your everyday life to shine even brighter. The copy will also refer to a specific product that will be displayed right next to the ad.

Television storyboard

We wanted our commercial to pull at the heart strings of mothers and show the special moments that every Mommy and baby experience. The commercial will be in black and white with Louis Armstrong’s “What a Wonderful World” playing in the background. Through the commercial we are trying to push the message that every part of your daily routine with your little one can be “golden” when using Burt’s Bees Baby products.

Women is looking down at her pregnant stomach. On the counter next to her will be a bottle of Burt’s Bees Belly Butter.

The screen will cut to a young baby in the bathtub. A Burt’s Bees Bubble Bath bottle will be on the ledge of the tub.

The next scene will be a baby on a changing table. Burt’s Bees Baby lotion and powder will be in the background.

The final scene will be a mother and baby sharing an intimate and happy moment.

The screen will fade to black and the tagline, “Life’s simple moments made golden”, will appear.

Creative testing

Through our creative testing we saw that the majority of responses to the advertisements were overall positive. Participants generally were unaware that the collection of Mama Bee, Baby Bee products existed. After viewing our ads, many expressed that they evoked a sentimental feeling, making them realize that enjoyable moments in life can be simple. The responses suggested that although participants did not think of Burt’s Bees products for baby care, several claimed that they loved the idea of keeping life simple, and organic by using the Burt’s collection for when they have children. Our participants all came from our target audience.

“The overall design scheme is classic and eye-catching.”

“ I had no idea that Burt’s made baby products, but I think it’s really cute. I feel like even though I never had my heart set on using organic care for my future kids, the ads made me

think it would be a more natural choice and something special.”

“ Aw! I love it! I always thought Burt’s Bees was more of a “hippie” product, but this ad changed my perception of the brand...I can see myself wanting to use burt’s for my baby”

“ Very clever. I like the emotional attachment idea of making a moment special by using a product.”

Media objectives

20

Target AudienceOur target audience is women between the ages of 18 and 34. Women between the ages of 25 and 34 are our primary audience because they are more likely to be well established with stable careers and have their own families or are beginning to think about having children. These women are health-conscious about the products they use and want the best for them-selves and their children. A secondary audience that we also want to reach is the younger, 18-24 group of women. We want them to be exposed to the Burt’s Bees Baby line through our campaign so that the brand can be on their minds for future use.

Message WeightThe majority of women within out target market regularly read magazines, watch television, and browse the Internet. Because of this the message weight within each medium will be relatively consistent. For this campaign we will also really utilize out-of-home advertising because many women in our target audience participate in or are involved with many different activities.

Geographic Scope of PlacementOur advertising for this campaign will be both regional andnational. All commercials, print and Internet advertisements will be placed in national media. Billboards will be placed regionally in major cities across the country including New York, Boston, Atlanta and Chicago. In-store promotions will be placed all throughout stores in popular locations of major cities and shopping cart ads will also be regionally placed.

ContinuityThis campaign will follow a pulsing schedule which will have our ads run all throughout the year with increased exposure during key times. These key times will be the winter season because it is a popular gift-giving time and the early fall and summer seasons because research shows that there are a significant amount of babies born during that time. Having our ads run heavily at these key times would really get the Burt’s Bees Baby line out there. The effective reach for our campaign is 70, while the effective frequency is 5.

We want to be on top-of-mind awareness all the time, but most importantly, when moms and future moms are making the choices of what to take off the shelves. We chose stores with a variety of customers to place our in store advertisements. Our ads will be placed on the outside of shopping carts, so that both the people using the carts and all of the other shoppers in the grocery store can easily see the ads. We’ve provided a call to action on each cart ad to guide shoppers to the specific aisle, and an incentive of saving money with a coupon located in that aisle. The aisle in which Burt’s Bees products are located will have a coupon dispenser next to the product to drive sales.
