VISUAL AUDITLOGO & PACKAGING STUDY

A total of four different logo

presentations were found all

with changes that ranged from

differentiation in color usage to

structurally different shapes being

displayed.

When looking at current Pearson’s

packaging it is noted that red is a

key part of brand recognition for the

Salted Nut Roll and the Nut Goodie,

and green correlates closely with

the Mint Patties brand.

9

CURRENT ADVERTISING

The 2 pages that Pearson’s has

online right now are it’s homepage

(pearsonscandy.com) and a special

Nut Goodie site for the 100 year

anniversary (nutgoodie.com)

There is a Facebook page with a

small following and the company

does not have a Twitter presence.

The largest campaign held by

Pearson’s to date was in 2012 when

Pearson’s products were sold at

Target Field during Twins Games.

11

VERBAL AUDITCURRENT AUDIENCE

Survey results revealed that there

were some very strong trends

occurring within the current

Pearson’s audience. The four primary

traits discovered were:

MIDWESTERN

55+ YEARS OF AGE

FINANCIALLY CONSCIOUS

FAMILY ORIENTED

13

DESCRIPTORS

A survey was given to over 50

people of ages ranging from 16 to

65 in order to collect the current

views and opinions about Pearson’s.

Along with the descriptive words,

each participant was also asked to

name the top three nouns that they

currently associate with the brand:

PERSONAMEET ADAM REDDING

AGE: 23 years

FROM: Farmington, MN

LIVES IN: Roseville, MN

Adam is the example person that

was created to represent the new

target audience that Pearson’s wants

to reach.

19

THIS IS ADAMAdam is a recent graduate of Augsburg

College, he is currently a full-time,

paid, Marketing Intern at Best Buy

Headquarters in Richfield, MN and also

works part time at his dad’s restaurant

“Dave’s Bar & Grill” in Farmington.

He’s a fan of the television series 24 and

has filled his iPod with Shinedown and

his secret musician crush Colbie Caillat

too. All through middle school and high

school Adam was involved with the

cross country team. He was captain

during his senior year and chose to run

for Augsburg for the first three years of

his schooling there. Since graduation, he

hasn’t been as intense about his training

as he was during his years at college, but

he still loves the thrill of racing. Because

of this, Adam usually runs a few 10Ks

a year and he and especially enjoys

signing up for races that donate their

proceeds to charitable causes.

When not at work or out running you

can find Adam scrounging together a

peanut butter and banana sandwich,

running errands in his 2007 Chevy

Blazer, or grilling out during a big sports

game with his buddies. It’s a fast-paced

life, and Adam enjoys every second of it!

21

BRAND POSITIONING

In order to target people like Adam

for a new Pearson’s product market,

the company needed to answer the

following questions:

WHO ARE WEPearson’s is a sensible midwestern

candy company

WHAT DO WE DOPearson’s provides the community

with non-chocolate, peanut resource

bars that are both high in protein

and gluten-free.

WHY DOES IT MATTERPearson’s strives for its products

to not only taste good, but to do

good as well by producing products

that are free of overprocessed

ingredients and being a company

that values community involvement.

23

BRAND STATEMENTPearson’s is a sensible midwestern candy

company that provides the community

with non-chocolate, protein rich, peanut

resource bars that not only taste good

but do good for the body and the

community as well.

25

DESIRED IMAGE ATTRIBUTES

To better align with the new target

market and incorporate the new

brand positioning of Pearson’s as

a company, a set of desired image

attributes was created to define

what Pearson’s strives to be:

CONVENIENTCOMMUNITY INVOLVEDWHOLESOMECLASSIC

27

CONVENIENT“Fitting in well with a person’s needs,

activities, and plans.”

Adam is always on the go. A

substantial snack that is already

packaged into serving sized portions

would be easy for him to quickly

grab while heading out the door.

COMMUNITYINVOLVED“Connected or concerned with

someone or something, typically on

an emotional or personal level.”

With all the races Adam participates

in, knowing that he supports a brand

that supports the community and

active lifestyles is just what he is

looking for.

29

WHOLESOME“Conducive to good health and

physical well-being.”

It’s important that Adam puts good

resources into his body to create fuel

for his workouts as well as replensih

himself after he’s finished.

CLASSIC“Judged over a period of time

to be of the highest quality and

outstanding of its kind.”

No matter where Adam ends up in

his fast-paced life, he will always have

a great appreciation for his family

and his roots. He likes to purchase

brands that have history and hold

similar values when possible.

MARKETING MESSAGE

The new tagline for Pearson’s candy

company aims to be witty while

still paying homage to the classic

product ingredients. Since the

targeted audience lives a face-paced

lifestyle, the message needs to be

simple and to the point. Going with a

short phrase will help emphazise the

new company direction. The chosen

tagline for the Pearson’s campaign

is “LIFE’S NUTS”.

35

MARKETING STRATEGY

Since the Salted Nut Roll is a

sensible resource bar that contains

a decent amount of protein, it will

be launched as the sponsor of the

new “LIFE’S NUTS” campaign.

This campaign revolves around

bringing Pearson’s products into

the community with promotions at

local sporting events, and will show

consumers how the Pearson’s brand

is ready to fit right into their busy

lifestyles. The goal is to show how

living healthy, active lives can be

really fun while presenting the Salted

Nut Roll as a convenient, wholesome,

and versatile product.

COLOR PALETTE

The primary color palette of reds

and golds was chosen to be both

warm and substantial. These two

colors were also incorporated for

brand recognition. A new hint of a

deep blue will add a refreshing new

twist that will be worked into ads for

more activity driven audiences.

VISUAL SYSTEM

39

LOGO EXPLORATION

The visual brand re-design will be

jump started with a fresh new logo

design. The new concept draws

its shape inspiration from both the

Virginia peanuts that the company

features in many of its products and

the shape of a smooth running loop

that will relate to its new audience.

LOGO & AVATAR

The new Pearson’s logo features

a bold organically peanut shaped

outline, with the company name

inside. The type used is an altered

version of the MENSCH typeface

that features: individually managed

letter counters, and a hand drawn

apostrophe in order to make the new

logo a piece of proprietary art.

The Avatar will switch between the

four main bracket graphic elements

and end with the Pearson’s logo.

1909�t.

TYPOGRAPHY & PHOTOGRAPHY

The main typefaces used within the

LIFE’S NUTS campaign are ALLER,

QUICKSAND, and BEMIO. Over 130

fonts were tested for the logo and

body type. Each finalist was chosen

for either it’s clarity or its bold

presence due to its heavier weight.

The campaign’s photography style

strives to showcase a variety of

activities that are unified through

a blurred image with one object in

focus along with an overlay hue of

red, gold, blue, or tan.
