To be in the game, you need at least half the market to be able to link your brand to at least one category entry point.

Remember, CEPs are the retrieval cues that buyers use to access the category.

We explain the importance of Mental Penetration using real data from the SmilingCFO database.

In this lager case study, we set an objective to increase the number of buyers who can link our brand to a CEP.

We identified the most important CEPs in this category and then tweaked the brand’s positioning to ensure relevant messaging built associations with multiple category entry points.

As a consequence, a 5% to 10% increase in the recruitment of light and non-buyers was predicted.
