She perfectly resonates with our brand philosophy, existence and principles for brand communication as well - customer trust, proper awareness and utmost commitment," a spokesperson from Power Gummies said.
Her association helped in the correct positioning of their brand and in targeting their niche customer base. Their marketing objective was to reach the masses and educate the customer, sustaining and increasing Power Gummies' visibility as a modern-day gummy supplement. Along with that, they wanted to build awareness around the product categories highlighting Power Gummies as India's leading Supplement Brand and make a customer perspective and preference shift.
