CPG Marketing Experts Who Drive Results

For 50 years, marketing consumer packaged goods followed a formula.
Do the research. Find the gap. Build the brand. Perfect the packaging. Test with focus groups. Run the prime-time TV ad. Hope for the best.
That playbook doesn’t work anymore. Today’s CPG marketing landscape is driven by social media, influencer marketing, digital advertising, and personalized experiences. Brands that fail to adapt get left behind.

Then, along came the internet and a new dawn for CPG branding agencies…
…and everything changed. CPG branding agencies had to rethink their approach as consumers’ attention fragmented across a million digital touchpoints. The challenge? Cutting through the noise. The solution? Strategic, data-driven storytelling that earns attention and converts.

Reaching today’s consumers takes more than just a great product—it takes creativity, authenticity, and bold marketing.
Legacy CPG brands are working to shed their “big corporate” image, while startup and mission-driven brands are making waves on social media. Consumers demand transparency, clean labels, customization, and authenticity. If your brand isn’t delivering, they’ll move on.
The power of shelf space is fading. The future of CPG marketing belongs to brands that master omnichannel.
Retail has been upended. Grocery has held strong, but Amazon, Walmart, and direct-to-consumer (DTC) brands are redefining how people shop. CPG brands that once relied on prime retail placement now need a powerful digital-first strategy to build brand awareness, drive engagement, and convert shoppers.

The good news? Opportunity is everywhere.
The $635 billion CPG market is undergoing massive disruption, and market share is up for grabs. The brands that move fast, embrace innovation, and connect meaningfully with consumers will win big. Brandon is the CPG marketing agency built to help brands navigate this new era.
