Hefty: Same brand message, new value twist

heftyIt’s well-known that consumers have been less loyal to name brands, switching over to private label in an effort to pinch pennies. They’ve been cutting corners anyplace they can, especially on items they’re going to throw away—like garbage bags.

When Hefty first came out with its Odor Block bags, it touted the bags’ ability to block the stink of garbage. Now, Hefty’s commercials have a twist: A woman wants her husband to throw out a trash bag that’s barely full because it stinks; her husband says, “That’s wasting money” and “Wasting money stinks.” So not only does garbage stink, but wasting money does too—and Hefty Odor Block protects against both! And does it with “new lower prices.”

This is smart thinking, killing two birds with one stone by adding value in consumers’ minds.
