U.S. cause related sales increase 20% in the last
year Simon Hardley, a Director of Brand Support Ltd, recently returned from the U.S.A. said that it is estimated that cause related marketing is growing by 20% a year in the U.S.A. “I expect that we will see this trend of accelerating growth across a number of other markets” says Simon. “There are a number of factors in play that are combining to drive the increase. Intensified competition for fundraising means that new approaches are needed to obtain target levels of contributions from the public. There are also high costs associated with conventional methods”. Consumer behaviour is the major factor in the pattern of growth as there is a clear preference for cause related brands. “We see in the brands we market for causes that purchasers are looking not only for quality at a fair price but are keen to support an organisation that the customer believes is doing great work in the community” commented Simon. “Branding however is not enough. There must be a comprehensive product development and marketing programme behind a product for it to succeed. That’s where we come in as a partner”. |

| Barnardos launches
toddler sunscreen Barnardos New Zealand launched its ‘Toddler’ range of sunscreen in partnership with the Cancer Society and Brand Support Ltd, to coincide with the start of last summer. "It was a great initiative for Barnardos,” says Murray Edridge, Chief Executive of Barnardos New Zealand. “We’ve been working with our Cancer Society colleagues to help protect children from the sun on one hand and to help them thrive on the other, as funds raised through sales will go towards our child and family services.” Brand Support’s Philip Wackrow said “the Barnardos launch was very successful and shows the true value of cause related partnerships in establishing a strong market presence in a short period of time. With Barnardos we invested the time to ensure all aspects were carefully planned, co-ordinated and well executed”. |
