Key partners assure the product's successful launch.

GIBBS & SOELL DELIVERS COMPLETE PUBLIC RELATIONS CAMPAIGN

Media relations, collateral development, internal communications, and trade show and event support are only the highlights of the comprehensive campaign Gibbs & Soell Public Relations, Raleigh, NC, delivered to help bring AVICTA Complete Pak to cotton growers.

"With this being a new market segment for Syngenta, our goal was to establish a solid internal education level and generate maximum external exposure prior to the official product launch," says VP Kerry Henderson. "Even though AVICTA Complete Pak has experienced a tremendous introductory year, we are committed to continuing this momentum into the next growing season and beyond."

ADVERTISING IGNITES AWARENESS

Minneapolis-based Martin I Williams continues to make its creative mark on advertising, interactive and direct marketing for the AVICTA Complete Pak campaign.

"Our advertising efforts to launch and establish the AVICTA Complete Pak brand focused on the metaphor of no hopper boxes," says Acc't Supvr, Leigh Thiel.

"It's truly a revolutionary product in the cotton market, and we were able to get that message across loud and clear with a robust media plan involving print, TV, radio, outdoor, interactive and direct marketing. Now that AVICTA Complete Pak has been out for a year, we're excited to continue the campaign momentum by showing how well it performed."

NEW PRODUCT ON NATIONAL DISPLAY

Cyndi C. Treadway, Senior Acct Mgr for Syngenta, with Exhibit Resources, Raleigh, NC, executes trade show responsibilities that represent Syngenta messages as well as those of the innovative products the company brings to market.

"To complete the integration of the new AVICTA Complete Pak brand," Treadway says, "we expanded on creative materials from the agencies to further the messaging into a three-dimensional trade show marketing effort at the Mid-South Farm and Gin Supply Show and Beltwide Cotton Conference."
