Campaign Brief — Spring Launch of FreshFork Meal Kits
Campaign name: FreshFork Spring Launch Prepared by: Lena Okafor, Marketing Lead Date: 4 March 2026 Version: v2
1. Background and context
FreshFork is launching a new line of 15-minute vegetarian meal kits aimed at busy households. Our research showed the biggest barrier for lapsed meal-kit subscribers is "the meals took too long to cook." Two competitors launched fast-cook ranges last quarter, so we want to be in-market before the spring sign-up peak. This is our first campaign with a single, time-to-cook promise at its centre.
2. Objective and KPIs
Primary objective: Acquire 3,000 new paying subscribers to the 15-minute range during the eight-week spring window (1 April – 26 May), at or below a £28 cost per acquisition.
KPIs:
| Metric | Baseline | Target | How it's tracked |
|---|---|---|---|
| New paid subscribers | ~900 / 8 weeks | 3,000 in the window | Billing system |
| Cost per acquisition | £41 | ≤ £28 | Ad platforms + billing |
| Landing page conversion | 2.1% | 3.5% | Web analytics |
What success looks like: Three thousand new households trying the range and the "too slow" objection visibly answered in our reviews.
3. Target audience
- Primary audience: Time-pressed households (one or two working adults, often with children) who tried a meal kit before and quit because cooking still felt like a chore. They want healthy dinners without the weeknight scramble.
- Secondary audience: Current FreshFork subscribers on slower-cooking plans who might upgrade to the new range.
4. Key message and support
Single-minded message: A proper, fresh vegetarian dinner on the table in 15 minutes.
Reasons to believe:
- Every recipe in the range is independently timed at 15 minutes or less, start to plate.
- Pre-chopped, pre-portioned ingredients mean no prep and no waste.
- A 4.7-star average across the first 500 trial reviews, with "fast" the most-used word.
5. Channels
- Paid social (Meta, TikTok) — carries the message with short "real-time" cooking videos that prove the 15-minute claim.
- Email — re-engages lapsed subscribers with a first-box discount; detailed in the linked email plan.
- Landing page — the single conversion point where the campaign sends all traffic.
6. Deliverables
- 6 short-form cooking videos (3 for Meta, 3 for TikTok)
- A 3-email re-engagement sequence for lapsed subscribers
- A dedicated spring-launch landing page with the first-box offer
7. Budget
| Category | Detail | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Media | Paid social over 8 weeks | £62,000 |
| Production | Video shoot + landing page | £11,000 |
| Other | Email tooling + analytics | £2,000 |
| Total | £75,000 |
8. Timeline
| Milestone | Owner | Date |
|---|---|---|
| Brief approved | Lena Okafor | 7 March |
| Creative ready | Studio team | 25 March |
| Launch | Media team | 1 April |
| In-market window | — | 1 April – 26 May |
| Wrap-up review | Lena Okafor | 2 June |
9. Mandatories and approvals
- Brand and legal: Use the 2026 brand guidelines; the "15 minutes" claim must carry the "average cook time, excludes oven preheat" footnote agreed with legal.
- Must include: First-box discount code SPRING15 and the spring landing-page URL on every asset.
- Out of scope: Out-of-home and TV; this is a digital-only campaign.
- Sign-off: Marketing Lead and Brand Director approve creative; Legal approves the time claim.
