Vital Proteins X ITV’s This Morning

In August 2022, Vital Proteins was featured on the popular British TV show This Morning, and the brand witnessed record sales as a result. An ITV representative reached out to Vital Proteins via the live chat feature on their THG Ingenuity managed website to request product samples for a feature in the show's ultimate guide to collagen’ segment, and in less than 24 hours, samples had been sent to the ITV studios. THG Ingenuity identified the opportunity this could present for the client and worked at pace to turn it into notable results.  
 
Anticipating an increase in sales following the TV feature, THG Ingenuity planned website and marketing channel optimizations. This included paid media content creation, adding This Morning interest-based audiences to paid social targeting, designing bespoke banners for the UK site and sending out a post-show dedicated email.  

In just one hour, Vital Proteins recorded record sales, delivering a 350% uplift in sales across the full day compared to the sales recorded across the whole of Black Friday 2021.  

"A fantastic achievement by Vital Proteins and Ingenuity Commerce teams! Well done! The team were proactive in bringing the opportunity to us, optimizing our performance marketing and ultimately responsible for delivering the incredible results. Thank you!"
