Executive Summary
Zestar is a new diet and weight loss app that prides itself on being scientifically backed and true to individuals needs to boost their metabolic rates. This technology is in competition with an already saturated weight loss market, requiring a differentiated and unique strategy to break through the clutter and be disruptive. Kaleidoscope found Zestars current demographic is reliant on new media, technology, and entertainment as their means for incentive and engagement. Furthermore, this demographic enjoys when things are suited to their preferences. With that in mind, the Kaleidoscope team sought out to find a solution that not only answers the need for an incentive, but serves Zestars audience in a way that other competitors have not. It is necessary that the campaign draws on the research gathered, speaking to the disconnect users have with their diet plans. Through the help and guidance offered by Kaleidoscope, Zestar will become a brand and image of community and incentive, which propelling users into a lifestyle that is healthy, long-term, and fulfilling. Kaleidoscopes campaign will connect with users on the premise that Zestars audience wants more; thus we will deliver on the message that Zestar delivers a unique weight loss experience crafted around you and your habits. Its a lifestyle that rewards you with continuous engagement. The creative execution will feature a carefully thought out integrated marketing campaign that spans across the print and digital landscape, and allows for cloud-based access to online communities. This campaign goes beyond what has been achieved by other brands and aims to set Zestar at the top of the App Store market in terms of healthy living and living well.

Objectives
Reach a 10,000 user subscription flashpoint for the the app.

Increase subscription to download ratio from 10:100 to 20:100 Increase Zestars rank on the App Store to the top 25 under the Health & Fitness category

The Task
Develop an integrated marketing campaign redefining the Zestar Diet Coach app as a lifestyle choice that is appeals to adults who need a new approach to weight loss and overall health. The goal is to differentiate Zestar from the simple Calorie Counting and Quick Diet options offered by its competitors

Research
Kaleidoscope Creative researched numerous secondary sources and conducted extensive primary research in order to gain further knowledge about Zestar and the health and wellness mobile app industry.

Research

Background Overview

Creative

Detailed secondary research was conducted that analyzed the behavior of the technology generation and the research that has been done on weight loss and the health industry. With this we were able to uncover the true beahviors and trends in the current competitive marketplace.

Phase I

Furthermore, the detailed and varied primary research allowed for rich feedback from a large sample group of the target audience. Initial research was conducted by researching the University of Minnesota library database for existing research regarding weight loss mobile apps. Kaleidoscope uncovered two key studies from the IBM Institute for Business Value and Translational Behavioral Medicine highlighting the smartphone communitys favored functionalities of weight loss apps. Additional research led to articles from Time and Shape magazines, and PRWeb that provide similar insight on the features of the top weight loss apps in the market. Other secondary sources such as Business Insurance emphasize the benefit to insurance companies on providing a health and wellness mobile app to their employees. Through a detailed survey distributed to 200+ people as well as in-depth interviews conducted amongst smartphone users and professionals, Kaleidoscope gained insight into the problems that plague the diet, health, and fitness industry and found solutions for how to combat those issues for the Zestar app.

The most desired functionalities of a weight loss app varied among individuals. Many of the functionalities that Zestar currently employs were not mentioned by study participants, as they are unkown to the average weight loss app user. Some of the top functionalities that are preferred include calorie counters, exercise logs, food logs, recipes, and the nutritional value of various foods.

Weight loss apps are in a market that is filled with skeptics. Many believe that weight loss apps are a gimmick and do not work. Some concerns arise when it comes to ones decision on which weight loss app to purchase. Some of the key concerns that were stated by study participants were the amount of time that it takes one to engage with a weight loss app, the accuracy of the data within the app itself, and the overarching fact that weight loss apps lack an entertainment factor.

Zestar is a one of a kind weight loss app that utilizes scientific research to curb hunger and amp up your metabolic rate. The current weight loss market is highly competitive and many consumers are skeptical about the accuracy of weight loss apps. Zestar is one of the few weight loss apps in the market that produces results backed by science, however there are areas in which the current application can improve upon.

Market Segmentation
The market reflects similar issues in terms of connecting with the audience and having enough incentive to encourage continued use.

-Kaleidoscope Survey

Phase III

Conclusion

Understanding Our Target

We recommend targeting a male and female demographic, ages 25-30, while touching on the psychographics of the fit, health conscious and wellness-oriented population. This audience is most disciplined and eager, thus tapping them to further become a part of a health community is a logical next step.

It is crucial to focus on those who have concern for their health, or whom are beginning to have a concern as this population is Zestars primary audience. We want to focus on how this is a lifestyle commitment that is permanent. Zestars secondary audience will be that of females who are driven and determined to lose that extra fifteen pounds.

Leadership Equity

Research Creative Phase I Phase II Phase III

Many other brands in the weight loss category have various features and USPs. They vary in their offerings calorie counters to eating and exercise programsbut they all aim to offer the user a better, and more balanced life. Zestar is categorized as an Explorer brand as it is not only symbolizing the power of choice each individual user can exercise with regard to their diet and lifestyle, but it is also results driven. It will cater to you and your needs, focusing on transforming your weight, eating habits, and overall lifestyle.

Creative Solution
To speak directly to our target and respond to their concerns, Kaleidoscope has created a campaign that leverages the user and their needs. We not only want them to be entertained and provide a hassle free user experience, but we want them to feel a sense of pride and community because this is their plan and no one elses. Zestar works and fits for anyones lifestyles, not the other way around. This means that the user doesnt have to work to be a part of the health plan. These regiments should be able to adjust and cater to each individual. With that concern of not being engaging enough and to cumbersome to deal with, Kaleidoscope created Shaped for You to allow for an immersive, comprehensive approach to attracting users and maintaining them throughout their lifestyle improvement. We plan to use this marketing technique coupled with the lifestyle approach to augment the idea of scientifically backed Zestar. Through our self-stated problem, we have realized that although Zestar is credible and actually works based on empirical scientific research, no one will believe that statement as there is too much clutter and competition. Thus, with our three phase creative strategy augmenting the concept, as well as the sense of community and increased social media traffic, we will create a sense of belonging. This will in turn hold users in because the app works, hence allowing word of mouth and user interaction to act as a catalyst.

Creative Phase I Phase II Phase III Conclusion

Our target strategy for reaching our audience and driving our message is one consisting of four aggressive pillars to ensure maximum coverage. This approach will guarantee that no member of our audience will be left behind.

Creative Strategy: Phase I

Additions & Functionality Interface Updates
Defeat the Eat Wellness Toolbox CalEval Z-cloud

Site Redesign Social Media Expansion PR & B2B: Direct Mailers

Research

Additions and Functionality

Although Kaleidoscope is mainly targeting the iPad as its platform of choice for the new interface and added functionality, we encourage that the initial implementation of the new interface and design be explored on the iPhone. This initial implementation of the new UI will allow for a new approach to Zestar, thus affecting the overall perception and acceptance of the app in the its initial period. If the interface and style are established in its early iPhone phase, this will allow for easier software and user experience carry over, thus creating more harmony and community across all platforms.

Creative Phase I Phase II

The iPad version of the app will be fully outfitted with the new homescreen welcoming users to the Zestar experience. It will include four key categories to streamline the experience and organize everything neatly and simply. The Defeat the Eat, Wellness Toolbox, CalEval, and Z-cloud categories will all aim to better organize and guide the user to provide comprehensive and useful interaction, ultimately giving them a faster, more intuitive system that will improve their lives and empower their minds to make healthful decisions.

Phase III Conclusion

Defeat the Eat

Houses the log for the recording of the users daily consumption.

Food portion recommendations and food counteracting recommendations

Contains the scientific explanantion and reasoning behind the apps function.

*This is the classic app featured in the current Winter 2012 version

Wellness Toolbox
This contains all the tools and motivators to keep the user going throughout the course of time. It contains Motivational Coaches from which you can choose a persona that works best for you. You are also able to plan out your workouts and exercise routines with the Exercise Planner. Furthermore, when out and about it will be helpful to have your grocery list on you. Within the Toolbox, the user can edit the list and then upload it to the Z-cloud to view any time, anywhere. If you arent shopping, but rather eating at a restaurant, this is where the Restaurant Scale and menus will be housed. Finally, we have Nutrition 101, which will be a comprehensive crash course in Nutrition. Defeat the Eat will explain some of the science, but this will only take it further and actually tell you what is happening for knowledge purposes. There will be mini lessons and reasoning behind nutrition in general and what is truly at work within your body.

Research Creative Phase I Phase II Phase III

The Motivational Coaches will contain at least four options, giving the users options ranging from an intense, drill sergeant-type persona, all the way to a sweet, comforting, and enduring mother-like figure.

Conclusion

CalEval
The CalEval is the charts and numbers of the operation. This segment will feature comprehensive monitoring of the users progress, metabolic charts, input versus output, as well as the a coveted calorie counter to ensure that those who track calories can achieve their daily value. This will also integrate with the Z-cloud for easy sharing and viewing of charts on the go. Ultimately, this will also play a part in competition via the Z-cloud, discussed in Phase III.

Z-Cloud
The Z-cloud will be the apps portal into the virtaul space. It will take full advantage of the digital cloud while providing easy connectivity, ubiquity, and easy expansion into social networks. As stated, much of the app will be Z-Cloud connected, thus making your charts, grocery lists, logs, and progress availble anywhere at any time. Social media and networking is not only a natural part of Zestars demographic, but it also plays an integral role in weight loss, and health and fitness as it provides the encouragement from friends and the instant gratification that only fuels diets and personal fitness. That being said, the Z-Cloud will also be integrated into social media to allow for easy sharing via any of the main social networking sites Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest. Furthermore, the Z-cloud will contain the ever important Zestore, a virtual health and wellness store to take full advantage of the Zestars the users will earn as an incentive.

Research Creative Phase I Phase II Phase III Conclusion

Zestore
The Zestore is the virtual health and fitness stop for users who have put in the time and effort. Throughout the Zestar program, users are rewarded for staying on track and keeping true to their personal program. The incentives for staying on track is a virtual monetary system of Zestars. When collected and saved, users can then turn to the Zestore to redeem them. In the Zestore, local businesses and large health and wellness chains alike will have partnerships, allowing for redeemable deals of the day and week. Specifically, this entails grocery deals, co-op deals, organic discounts, and yoga and fitness center memberships that will be available for purchase within the app.

Digital Expansion
Nearing the end of Phase I, Kaleidoscope would conduct a website expansion, allowing room for the new functionalities of the app, and preparing for the release of the advertisng campaign.

The website would maintain its homepage, while having additional tabs explaining the science behind it and the new key features. Furthermore we would then have log in capabilities to access the Z-cloud and the user account information

The mailers will be in the form of a frozen meal box with an informational direct mailer card explaining the benefits of partnering with Zestar and being a part of the Zestore. We also believe that with these direct mailers, we can further keep businesses connected to the community and keep them in line with the users of Zestar. We also plan to keep users and customers of Zestar up-to-date on the current businesses and coupons available online and in the app. We feel that with target and goal specific mailings and emails both to the users and businesses, lines of communication will be further stimulated to foster a well connected health and wellness network.

Zestar Community
The Vision
We want to carry Zestar into the cloud and keep it there. For the future we see Zestar and the Z-Cloud further fostering a community by way of encouraging more interaction with friends and competitors. We see the Z-Cloud becoming a platform for organic and healthy competition, not to mention friendly encouragement amongst peers, family, and neighbors. This will especially be achieved with a specific Z-Cloud microsite. Additionally, we see it expanding into a larger marketplace as well, due to the Zestore which we only see growing and ultimately turning into a place not only to exchange your Zestars for coupons, but for groceries and actual organic, health, and fitness related objects. In other words, it will become a secondary currency that will further the community aspect that is already being fostered in Phases I and II.

Research Creative Phase I Phase II Phase III Conclusion

Brand Proliferation
Expansion to Additional Devices
The next step for Zestar to take would be to expand its presence onto various devices such as heart monitor bracelets and metabolism montiors. All of the data collected from these devices can be sent via the Z-Cloud to other operating systems such as the users iPad or home computer. This allows users to consistantly track their progress and identify where they are striving and areas that they can improve upon. Not only would this allow for users to gage their progress while they are on the go, it will also drive competition. As our research has shown, competition is an entertainment value that drives motivation and encourages continued use.

B2B Expansion
Upon further expansion of relationships with other business ventures, it would be beneficial for Zestar to partner with Health Insurance companies or individual companies who supply health care to their employees through their own funding. This will provide incentive for companies to provide the Zestar app to all employees to keep them healthy in order to reduce the cost of their health care.

Phase II Phase III Conclusion

Conclusion
Kaleidoscope Creative was given the task to further enhance the Zestar App and develop an integrated marketing campaign. In order to achieve this, the Kaleidoscope team focused on three key objectives: 1. Achieve a 10,000 subscriber flashpoint 2. Increase subscription to download ratio from 10:100 to 20:100 3. Increase Zestars rank on the App store to the top 25 under the Health & Fitness category. With the backing of extensive research conducted by the Kaleidoscope team, it was determined that in order to achieve the three key objectives it would be best to focus promotions on the personalization aspect of the product. Research confirms that many are hesitant to use weight loss apps, as they are seen as untrustworthy and inaccurate. It is also with this research that we gear our recommendations to updating the iPhone application in parallel with the iPad and Android apps. In conclusion, the personalized creative campaign developed by Kaleidoscope accommodates various communication platforms to engage the target audience and generating a sense of community and incentives.
