BRITISH COMPANY PARTNERS WITH SHOUTLET TO DISCOVER PURCHASE
INSIGHT TO OPTIMIZE MARKETING MESSAGING
GOAL
DISCOVER CONSUMER PURCHASE INSIGHT
Goody Good Stuff, a UK subsidiary of leading European confectionery company Cloetta,
offers consumers a healthy alternative to typical sweets. With a variety of all natural
meat-free, gluten-free, dairy-free, and soy-free candies, the brand attracts a target audience
largely comprised of vegetarians, those with allergen intolerances, and other health
conscious consumers. To better understand its fans and why they purchase Goody
Good Stuff, the company conducted market research through a social promotion.
CAMPAIGN
KOALATY TASTE TEAM
In an effort to gain deeper, more
vital insights on its consumer base,
Goody Good Stuff ran a promotion
on Facebook recruiting fans to be
part of an exclusive taste-testing
team. Built in Shoutlet Canvas™,
the Facebook app featured an
application requesting basic
demographic information and
a strategic question to uncover
what drives fans to purchase
Goody Good Stuff. After the
promotion, the company chose
250 winners to be part of the taste
test team, creating a customer
centric product and supporting
future product development.

HOW SHOUTLET HELPED
Shoutlet empowered Goody Good Stuff to create the Koalaty
Taste Team app entirely in-house, avoiding the services of a
designer. Working strategically with their Account Manager
and Tech Therapy, the Goody Good Stuff team built the app
in Shoutlet Social Canvas™, tailoring the promotion to their
unique audience. This allowed them to automatically gather
customer data as fans entered to build their Shoutlet Profiles.
To monitor the success of the promotion, the company used
Shoutlet Reports™ weekly to correct and define its marketing
strategies throughout the promotion period.
With seamless data acquisition and customized apps, Shoutlet
made it possible for Goody Good Stuff to reach their target
demographic, uncover a key insight, and tailor their future
marketing message to impact sales.
