The Hartz Mountain Corporation has announced they will continue their relationship with Examiner.com. Focusing on pet health, the program has created word of mouth marketing through the creation of original and authentic pet care content and social media conversations. The focus of these programs is to produce an environment that is contextually relevant for both the marketer and the consumer.
“Every Examiner Connect program is based on a custom strategy, initiating a process of engagement targeted to specific Examiners and is designed to encourage content creation around predetermined themes. In this case, pet health,” said Tom Woerner, senior vice president of national sales for Examiner.com. “The Hartz® program has been a great example of how earned media created amplifies the value of this offering.”
The initial campaign was centered on flea and tick prevention and generated more than $600,000 in earned media from social media actions and original content. The next phase of the campaign will focus on pet dental health and will highlight Hartz Crunch ‘n Clean® dog biscuits and treats.
Hartz® is the latest brand to participate in the Examiner Connect marketing program created by Examiner.com, which is based on the unique relationship that Examiner.com has developed with its 72,000 content producers, in this case, more than 2000 pet and pet health writers.
Other successful Examiner Connect programs include brands such as IAMS, The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, American Family Insurance and HGTV.
