Research
Becoming involved with the campaign taps into
huge brand awareness and proven success with the "California
Grown" logo. Not only have growers, chefs, and retailers
noticed a difference by using the blue licenseplate, the advertising
has been constantly improving consumers' knowledge of the program.
Research has been done statewide periodically since the start
of the program to ensure that marketing decisions were focused
on generating beneficial results.
Some of those results include
the following statistics:
- Awareness of the "California Grown" commercials
has risen from 29% to 37% with the addition of Governor Arnold
Schwarzenegger
- 68% of viewers recall the main message of the
advertising - that buying California grown products helps
the state's economy
- Those aware of the commercials are twice
as likely to be buying more California grown products than
they were "six
months ago".
- 43% of consuemrs say that it is extremely or
very important to buy California grown products (up from
30% compared to the California Grown benchmark study)
