Research & Insights

Understanding why shoppers choose one product over another is where strong CPG market research begins. Unfortunately, a lot of agencies mistake statistics for insights. We understand that uncovering real shopper insights requires effort, and we can help you achieve that. We tailor research to the problem at hand. That can mean tracking how shoppers move through a store, reviewing online behavior, or running broader studies to understand market trends. Our methods uncover what people think and feel about a brand, giving you direction for stronger growth.

Brand Strategy & Positioning

Brand strategy in CPG defines how a product fits into people’s daily lives and stands apart on the shelf. Customers are bombarded with choices and need a reason to choose you. That’s where PriceWeber’s CPG branding expertise comes in. We build identities that connect with people and reflect what makes each product worth choosing. Every element, from the logo to the story behind it, works together to create recognition that lasts.

Shopper & Trade Marketing

Visibility in stores depends on solid relationships and trade programs create visibility and drive sell-in with retailers and distributors. For many brands, grocery is king, but in today’s hyper-complex market, we can’t afford to miss any profitable volume. Understanding how to drive trade participation and consumer pull across channels—from grocery and c-store gas to food service and travel retail—ensures you don’t leave any revenue on the table. Our team builds programs that keep distributors and retail partners engaged and motivated to sell.

SEO & PPC

Search visibility helps CPG brands reach shoppers at the moment they’re deciding what to buy. PriceWeber builds SEO and paid search programs that make your products easy to find and understand. Search data shapes messaging, and PPC campaigns expand reach among the audiences most likely to convert. Together, these tools help your brand earn attention and drive sales in an increasingly crowded online marketplace.

Digital & eCommerce Marketing

Online buying shapes how people choose and stay loyal to CPG brands. We develop digital content and paid campaigns that improve visibility and remove friction during the path to purchase. Our goal is to make each online interaction feel natural and helpful while aligning with how people actually shop.

Advertising & Creative Production

Effective CPG advertising connects quickly and leaves an impression. That’s why your ads need to work hard to stay top of mind with consumers as they plan their shopping trips. Every message needs to feel relevant and spark interest while showing clear value to the shopper. Our creative team develops ideas that work across all media and drive preference for your brand at the moment of choice.

Website Design & Development

In the consumer packaged goods industry, a website is a brand’s most reliable space to control the story and connect directly with consumers. Social media builds awareness, but your website is where shoppers go to learn and make confident buying decisions. We create sites that reflect your brand’s personality and make it easy for visitors to find what they need. From content and navigation to ecommerce functionality, every element works together to move products off the digital shelf and into carts.

Photo & Video Production

Photo and video production for CPG advertising means creating visual content that helps shoppers understand a product’s purpose and appeal before they buy. PriceWeber’s studio manages photography, video, and animation in one space, allowing brands to move from concept to finished content efficiently. Keeping production close to strategy ensures every image supports the message and strengthens brand recognition.

Public Relations & Influencer Engagement

Reputation plays a central role in brand preference, so it’s a mystery to us why PR is often overlooked in CPG marketing. The public relations professionals at PriceWeber don’t just send press releases. Our strong trade press relationships help your brand earn attention at industry events and trade shows. We also work with consumer media to build excitement around new products, special promotions, and community initiatives. We also provide crisis planning as your insurance policy for the unthinkable, keeping your brand protected at all times.

Social Media Marketing

Social media gives CPG brands a direct way to reach shoppers and shape perception before they reach the shelf. Our social media team creates meaningful influencer relationships and engaging, shareable content that resonates with your audience and highlights your products. From mouthwatering user-generated content and recipe videos on Instagram and TikTok to behind-the-scenes glimpses on Facebook and inspiring boards on Pinterest, we leverage the latest trends to build a loyal community around your brand.

Media Planning & Buying

Media planning and buying for CPG means reaching shoppers where purchase decisions actually happen. PriceWeber’s media experts craft innovative, strategic plans to ensure your message reaches the right audience through the right channels. By leveraging data-driven insights and a mix of traditional, digital, and retail media, we optimize your ad spend for the highest ROAS.
