The Challenge
The challenge was to launch FBX, a new entrant in
Australia’s competitive health and wellness market, alongside educating
consumers on its unique benefits while differentiating the brand from
traditional fat loss solutions through strategic media exposure.
The Execution
We delivered a targeted national media rollout anchored by
consumer research and a suite of high-impact broadcast assets. Our team
developed and launched The Fat Loss Report, using key findings to
generate relatable headlines that captured consumer sentiment and drove
immediate media interest.
We prioritised high-impact broadcast opportunities,
positioning our independent voice, Ben Lucas as the lead spokesperson for
expert commentary in the wellness field. To bring the campaign narrative to
life, we integrated storytelling through real-world case studies, humanising
the data and reinforcing the need for accessible fat loss solutions. To scale
reach, we distributed an Audio News Release (ANR) to national and regional
radio networks and a Video News Release (VNR) to secure television coverage
with compelling visual assets
The Strategy
MediaCast developed a research-led PR strategy to
differentiate FBX within Australia’s competitive health market. The strategy centred
on three pillars: the reality of weight management challenges, the
inaccessibility of prescription solutions, and the emergence of FBX as a
convenient, needle-free alternative.
We reframed fat loss as an everyday challenge, using
national consumer insights to highlight emotional and practical barriers. This
allowed us to position FBX not just as an effective product, but as an
accessible solution for busy lifestyles. We reinforced this authority through
expert commentary and clinically backed proof points to build rapid consumer
trust.
The Outcome
The campaign achieved national scale, headlined by a
standout interview with Ben Lucas on Today Extra and national digital
coverage in Body+Soul, The Daily Telegraph, Herald Sun, and The
Courier-Mail.
We secured a massive radio footprint through interviews and
news placements, with ANR placements extending reach to regional and community
stations nationwide. Ultimately, the campaign successfully launched FBX into
the Australian market, converting research-led storytelling into widespread
brand awareness and national exposure.
