CASE STUDY

NUMERO UNO CAMPAIGN

Hyper-local experiential and in-store sampling strategy designed to increase SueroX brand awareness in Southern California, engage health-conscious Hispanic consumers in authentic hydration and wellness moments, drive product trial, and capture first-party data to convert interaction into measurable sales and loyalty.

THE CHALLENGE

  • Increase brand awareness for SueroX in Southern California.
  • Drive product trial through direct consumer interaction.
  • Educate consumers on product benefits, ingredients, and usage occasions.
  • Collect first-party consumer data to support future marketing efforts.
  • Generate on-site sales during activations.

Target:

  • Young adults and adults ages 18–44 (60% of total audience).
  • 60% Hispanic, bicultural consumers.
  • Active, health-conscious individuals and frequent retail shoppers.
  • Key usage occasions: post-workout recovery, hydration during hot weather, hangover relief, and general wellness. Gender: Strong female participation with high engagement across both genders.

OUR STRATEGIC IDEA

We developed a hyper-local experiential and in-store sampling strategy that placed SueroX directly in the consumer’s daily routine—where they shop, exercise, attend events, and socialize.

The core idea was “Try it where it matters”: allowing consumers to experience SueroX’s refreshing taste and functional benefits at moments of physical activity, heat exposure, or high-energy events, supported by trained brand ambassadors who addressed questions around ingredients, health, and product usage.

ACTIVATIONS

High-traffic and culturally relevant locations

Over the course of one month, we executed the Numero Uno Campaign, activating across high-traffic and culturally relevant locations, including:

  • Urban & lifestyle areas: Long Beach (downtown, waterfront, parks, Aquarium, UC Long Beach).
  • Major venues & events: Stadiums, concerts, and Fiestas Patrias.
  • Retail & fitness locations: Walmart, El Super, Superior Meat Market, gyms, and shopping centers.
  • Each activation focused on live product education, trial, data capture, and direct consumer engagement.

RESULTS

An increase of brand’s awareness in the Hispanic market increased from 24% in 2020 to 57% in 2023. The Campaign delivered strong engagement and measurable impact across experiential and retail environments. A total of 3,402 bottles were distributed through 13 in-store sampling events and 7 parking lot demos, averaging 25 bottles per activation hour across 135 total activation hours. The campaign generated 279 on-site sales and captured 229 consumer email addresses, building a valuable first-party database for future marketing initiatives. Beyond volume, the activations sparked meaningful conversations around product benefits, ingredients, and usage, reinforcing SueroX’s positioning as a trusted hydration solution and validating experiential marketing as an effective driver of awareness, education, and conversion.
