Summary

2008 Silver Anvil Award Winner – Reputation Management / Brand Management – Business – Companies with Sales Over $10 Billion

Frito-Lay’s motto “good food for the fun of it” captures the essence of its entire snack chip portfolio, but it takes more than a catchy phrase to shift perceptions of products considered junk food while elevating a 63-year-old company’s reputation as a health and wellness innovator. The team targeted influencers who impact public opinion toward Frito-Lay, designing a strategy to gain their support while equipping them with resources to share Frito-Lay’s “better-for-you than you think” story with consumers. In ten months, Frito-Lay has established a base of trust with influencers, arming 34,000 with message-multiplying materials, while significantly increasing positive/decreasing negative media coverage of the company and brands.
