What we love about the category
The data driven approach has been the big news in field sales for over a decade, streamlining call files and upping effectiveness and profit. 2018 showed a further step change in this category as Logobrand and Britvic correlated profit margin insight into the field to help make ROI-based actions in store. 2019 then saw several intriguing innovations including a silver for Acosta Europe Flexforce’s clever use of propensity to purchase shopper datasets. Now there’s an intriguing head to head between the Logobrand and Britvic team, two years further down the line, and Acosta Europe Reach part of that same resourceful Acosta group.
What our judges love about this year’s finalists
Acosta Europe Reach – Heineken
In a year when the news has been dominated by a very Irish problem in terms of Brexit, Reach has been busy making step change improvement to call effectiveness in Ireland, in so doing pulling on resources for data-led field sales in a way that we have not previously witnessed from an agency in Ireland.
Logobrand – Britvic
This COVID case study showed how this data driven agency and brand partnership moved to overcome the changing circumstances in shopping behaviour.
