Savvy Marketing: Co-Marketing Dole Pineapple & Disney's Pixar!

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Napa Consultants DRE00893924

We noticed this unusual co-marketing while shopping in the fruit aisle.  We both were intrigued by the tag attached to a Dole pineapple.  And we wondered why Disney's Pixar is co-marketing with Dole.  

We turned the tag over (pictured above), and there was a vague explanation (both in English and in French). It was an invitation to visit their website.

 

On the website, you will find digital downloads of Dole and Pixar stickers.  You can make your own chef's hat, download a ratatouille place-mat, and view easy to make recipe videos.  Additional recipes can be printed.

We were impressed by this video.  It was well done and easy to follow.  The idea behind it was to engage the adults and children to have a good time being together (especially during this of health crisis) and include cooking together.  This also incorporates the message of healthy eating, and even included a vegan recipe.  

 

And of course, it was about keeping the Disney brand alive and visible while the parks are closed. In our opinion this was very well done.  Bravo to both!

Hello Alexandra and Ron - opportunity is everywhere.  Even in the produce department or along the aisles of a grocery store.

Michael Jacobs In real estate co-marketing was big with the Tittle and Lenders at one time, before the gov put their foot down...It is still possible if you can think of others who would benefit.  A

Nina Hollander You can tell that marketing/branding is on our genetic make-up. That is one of the reasons we loved commercial real estate, and we wrote a marketing patent that was granted...Each one of us sees stuff like that, and we will turn a tag over.  A

Wayne Martin Disney and Dole have had a long relationship according to our research.  Sounds like the pineapple whip would be a strong, sweet, drink...I will stick to champagne or wine, hold the pineapple...A

Hmm, I have never tried pineapple with rum as Wayne Martin suggests, but that does indeed sound like a tasty adult libation!

I think I have been doing a little too much home cooking, and now have to work at some of my health goals a little more agressively.

Kat Palmiotti I thought that was a good recipe.  I have made it the French way, and this looks easier, and I liked the addition of fresh arugula on top. We are one hour earlier than you, and I am drinking coffee and looking forward to picking up a croissant when they open at 7.00AM. A

Great marketing for sure.  Of course with Disney's track record, that is certainly no surprise to me.

Cooking as a family has become such a big deal. Both Holly and Becky buy international monthly meal kits geared toward children. The kids have already made meals from Asia, India, and Mexico. It's such a cool idea and is great for educational purposes as well as expanding young palettes. I love this idea from Disney and Dole - they are right on.

Debb Janes EcoBroker and Bernie Stea JD so delighted that you told me about Holly and Becky, and I love that the kids are expanding their taste buds and learning about the world.  That just goes to show that Disney did their homework beautifully.  A
