THE STORY

McD helps build Toggle from the ground up

Acadian SeaPlants knew they needed to cover every angle of Toggle® - a new biostimulant that helps growers produce higher years in row crops - in order to catch the attention of potential U.S. customers and boost sales and profit for the company. So they turned to McD to help build the brand and share the story of their product with corn, soybean, and potato growers.

THE CHALLENGE

Delivering a solution that growers understand and need

Because this was a brand new program, McD started with concept testing, making sure targeted growers understood the program and that it delivered a solution they desired. We helped develop the name, logo and slogan concepts and developed product labeling. Then, we continued building their brand with a product launch at farm and ag/chem shows and a public relations campaign (complete with new research findings, case studies and white papers). 

THE SOLUTION

McD helps drive massive value to Acadian customers and business partners alike

McD created an extensive print and digital media strategy to launch Toggle to growers. Direct mail campaigns were also developed and timed before two key shows: Commodity Classic and The Farm Progress Show. This resulted in 13 new trial plots from interested farmers and numerous leads after each show. 

“I’ve found their agency to be exceptionally fast, smart and creative. Each member of the McD team is talented and very receptive to feedback. Plus, they have enough experience to hear a request and translate it into something that works for the creative. This allows for a far stronger and more elegant result. Having an agency who ‘gets it’ AND is responsive to client feedback helps us build a portfolio of work that drives massive value for our internal customers and also supports the confidence of our business partners.” - Cali Tanguay, North America technical marketing manager for Acadian Seaplants
