Food & Beverage | Case Study
With seven different varieties of soft-chew candies, Airheads has been a classic favorite among kids and adults alike since 1985. However, it’s no surprise that the candy industry is extremely difficult to stay sticky in.
Airheads needed to increase trial and awareness while driving purchase consideration and conversion among consumers over the fall, winter and holiday season.

Using our robust segmentation capabilities, we identified participants within Airhead’s key consumer target—parents with elementary school-aged children who enjoy crafting.
Targeted influencers were invited to join the Airheads Mission. We sent them exclusive kits including various flavors of its Bites and Xtremes lines, crafting tools, lollipop sticks and a brochure with ideas and tips.
From cupcakes to alligator and basketball hoops, participants were encouraged to share their creations across the fall and holiday season.
Through Vesta’s Single-Click Sharing™ technology, friends and followers could get in on the fun too with a special embedded link to a Facebook sweepstakes where they could win their own Airheads crafting kit.
