Cossette proudly unveils the Protein Made Easy campaign for Yoplait Source, introducing the brand鈥檚 newest addition to its product line: a delectable protein yoghurt boasting a smooth and creamy texture. This marks the brand鈥檚 first campaign since 2017, designed to ignite excitement for the launch of this distinctive offering by focusing the campaign on the quest for yoghurt with outstanding taste, texture and nutritional benefits.
In a highly competitive market where communications are abundant, Yoplait wanted to distinguish itself by highlighting the added value of its new product. While the health benefits of protein are widely recognised, consumers often struggle to find a simple and accessible protein. Therefore, the strategy was to move away from yoghurt鈥檚 usual spot at the grocery store by emphasising what sets it apart from other protein sources: its accessibility and simplicity.
鈥淚t鈥檚 surprisingly a protein yoghurt that doesn鈥檛 taste like one!鈥 expressed Gilles Legault, creative director at Cossette. 鈥淭hat鈥檚 why we positioned this new product as a tasty discovery in the yoghurt aisle that鈥檚 bound to surprise and delight. Through an original and playful approach, we juxtaposed the yoghurt containers with popular protein sources like eggs and cans of beans, positioning Yoplait Source Protein as the easiest, most convenient solution for health-conscious individuals.鈥
鈥淔inding a convenient and satisfying protein source for breakfast and snack time can prove to be a challenge,鈥 expressed Jenny Chiasson, associate director, brand experience at General Mills Canada. 鈥淭o generate awareness for our product launch, this campaign will resonate with those who have wandered the yoghurt aisle only to leave empty-handed or unsatisfied. With our new offering, you no longer have to compromise on taste or convenience. You鈥檙e getting the protein, the smoothness, the flavour, and no added sugar鈥攁ll in one.鈥
