Recently, New Hope Networkreleased a special report,Sustainability Marketing: How to amplify your brand's commitment, with surveys and data onhow consumers want to learn about brands' efforts and transparency regarding their sustainability stories.

This special report dives into best practices compiled from industry experts' interviews on marketing challenges and opportunities around CPG brands' sustainability efforts. Consumers gather their information via a brand's social media and web platforms. They feel more connected when they learn more about a brand's mission. The founders of soup brandSouperGirl saythey find the best engagement when they post videos featuring its founder and team members speaking directly and passionately about their food justice efforts.

Modern consumers appreciate genuine and transparent storytelling that delves into the details behind sustainability claims. The Sustainability Marketing report examines how U.S. consumers discover new products and educate themselves about sustainability. A key finding is that openly discussing a brand's sustainability strategies, although daunting, is crucial to establishing trust with today's consumers. For example, when you look at a brand like GoodSam's Instagram page (pictured), you can immediately tell that sustainability is central to the brand's mission.

Looking at Spinster Sisters Co.'s website (pictured), you can find their yearly impact report published publicly. Consumers applaud the brand's work to track and measure their impact. Putting it online, allowing anyone to look and dive in, builds trust through transparency. And backing it up with data like Spinster Sisters does is important. Brands need to be aware of marketing guidelines when making environmental claims. The Federal Trade Commission'sGreen Guides are currently under review, and tackling greenwashing is a significant touch point.

In a recent interview, Fred Hart, creative director of Interact Brands, said, "The wonderful thing about building a brand today is there are different channels to get out different messages." For example, online channels are a great way to share a brand's sustainability story more thoroughlythan they could on the packaging, which has limited real estate. "When it comes to some of these social channels, use those as outlets to educate consumers on your brand's mission," Hart said. Doing so will help consumers feel more connected to a brand and create loyalty.

Read on to see more examples and hear from brands on how they leverage online platforms to tell their sustainability story.Some responses have been edited for length and/or clarity.

Sustainability is not just a part of Neutral's marketing strategy, but what the brand is built on. It's engrained in everything they do. Neutral makes it easy for consumers to learn more about the brand's sustainability efforts on its website through appealing infographics and concise messaging that is easy to digest.

In April, Neutral launched a campaign called "Milk for a Planet Worth Saving," which appears on Neutral'shomepage, social mediapostsand videos from consumers and celebrities such asHeather Morrisand John Legend.

Through social media, Neutral gathers real-life #planetworthsaving video testimonials by inviting consumers to post an Instagram reel with the tag @eatneutralto answer the question, "Why do you believe the planet is worth saving?"

Partnerships with coffee shops has been great at generating awareness ofThe Planting Hope Co.'s sustainable Hope and Sesame Milk. Here,A coffee shop customer @theroasterspack discovers Hope and Sesame and shares their find on TikTok.

When asked, "When do you begin telling your sustainability story, and how is it a part of your marketing strategy?" GoodPop replied,"It's important to us that our products are, first and foremost, incredibly deliciousit's easier to educate someone about your initiatives if they love your product first!Then you flip the box and explore GoodPop's purposeour entire back of the pack is dedicated to all the good we do.

"We use the same strategies across our social channelsflavor profile and beautiful packaging are focused on first. Then we dig deeper into what makes us a better business as a certified B Corp and what our 501c3, the Pledge Good Foundation, does in your community."

GoodPop uses the collaboration feature on Instagram to announce that it is now Plastic Neutral. GoodPop can interact with the community by answering questions like "What does plastic neutral mean?".

When implementing a sustainability marketing strategy, it is essential to avoid greenwashing. The team at GoodPop believes thatit's important to be specific about what they are doing, and being able to measure it in some capacity is key.They avoid greenwashing by not talking about efforts vaguely. Instead, they suggest showing people your impact with actionable numbers they can understand. GoodPop explains that it is easier for people to understand the impact of "GoodPop provided X number of meals through the Central Texas Food Bank" vs. "GoodPop donated $$ to X foundation."

The GoodPop team also advises,"We make sure to share the same key message across all channels.Our assets may vary, but the core message should always be consistent.We aren't perfect at this and are always improving. And staying consistent with our effortsmeaning, don't do something that is a short-term fix.Sustainability is a journey, and you have to stick with it and build those relationships with your partners that can help you get there."

The list continues to much more points that influence the perception and efficiency of a piece. Regarding the number of specific points to consider, it would be complicated to take everything into account if you dont have any factual skills.

The matter of platforms is highly relevant today, as there are so many tools to use in various spheres. And the more apps appear, the more complicated it becomes to keep all the finesses in mind. But some of the main video types, which are sometimes universal for several platforms and purposes of usage on the same platform, are the following:

Some of them are combined, and others are used for other purposes than for which they were initially created. The main idea in all of them is to make these situations and contexts the most realistic and humanely possible.

To shoot expressive yet meaningful content, you can use several options: trying to use your own means and people, addressing acquaintances, and using professional services. Only the latter option has the most chance to be successful, but finding a reliable production company is also a deal.

Dive Brief:

Gummi brand Haribo is bringing the sweetness this National Gummi Bear Day in an effort to uplift consumers at a time when there is an ongoing national discourse around the negative effects of social media. Haribos push was planned around findings from Pew Research showing most Americans get their news from social media, and from Psychology Today, which referenced a study indicating that increased exposure to positive news can insulate readers from the effects of negative news.

To help fill consumers positive-news bank, the brand for one day only and starting at 9 a.m. ET on April 27 will run its Good News Goldbears news broadcast. Leading up to the effort, consumers could call the Good News Hotline and share positive news for the chance to be featured during the effort. Haribo isnt new to playful social media efforts, having previously created an augmented reality lens on Instagram to make adult voices sound like children as part of a larger campaign.

The brand also crafted a custom print with Vans, representing a continuation of its initial collaboration with the shoe maker that was launched earlier this month. While not tied to its gummi bear day festivities, Haribo in press materials also teased a forthcoming Goldbears pack mix timed for summer.

This years National Gummi Bear Day effort marks the second such celebration for Haribo, which created the holiday last year in partnership with the National Day Calendar to honor the 100th anniversary of its iconic gelatin bear. For its initial effort, the brand hosted a year-long sweepstakes rewarding four consumers with a weeklong vacation to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and again encouraged consumers to engage with the brand on Instagram.

Other marketers have unveiled cheeky efforts aimed at honoring an on-brand National Day. For example, mustard brand Frenchs last year partnered with artisanal donut maker Dough Donuts for a mustard-flavored donut in honor of National Mustard Day. Similarly, Applebees for National Wing Day unveiled a series of wing sauce-inspired lip glosses along with an original music video called Taste My Face.
