02. The Work
BeGOAT
BeGOAT asked RoadTrip to develop an initial brand and communications strategy, adapting its existing packaging design to create a point of differentiation against competition, appealing to crtitical distribution networks to create sell-in opportunities.
Strategy
RoadTrip concepted a launch strategy that positioned BeGOAT with a compelling brand and product narrative, spotlighting a proprietary process and 4 category-driving flavors. The strategy was designed to first win attention with major distribution companies to achieve sell-in, then appealing to consumers at the point of sale to drive sell-thru, in turn opening more doors for sell-in.
Creative
BeGOAT’s retro vintage brand identity strikes a nice balance of historical reference with a modern touch. The products eye catching layouts with bright pop colors leap off the shelf.
To ensure an effective product launch for BeGOAT, RoadTrip developed a variety of assets that inform the world of Cascara+, product features and the four tasty flavor profiles. Sales collateral, website design, POS creation and social media creative development all showcase the brands bold color palette, vintage brand elements and provocative can photography.
