Challenge
Maximuscle had an impressive following amongst bodybuilders and male gym goers. But to achieve their goal of brand growth of £100 million by 2013, they needed to become heavyweights across the entire health and fitness market.
Approach
We used our expertise across segmentation, cultural insight, typologies, packaging codes and brand strategies to reach out to all areas of the market, from professionals to beginners.
Insight
Our work inspired Maximuscle to create three new sub-brands, a new brand identity and innovative packaging designs.
Impact
Maximuscle, Maxitone and Maxifuel were all launched successfully in 2010 achieving 15% growth year on year, which resulted in Glaxo Smith Kline buying the brand in February 2011 for £162 million.
