Pork industry to call on consumers to 'Be Inspired'



(3/4/2011)
Rod Smith

Special Coverage from the National Pork Forum in Phoenix, Ariz., March 3-5.
The National Pork Board is scheduled to unveil its new advertising and promotion campaign this afternoon in which it will turn the page on "Pork: The Other White Meat" and replace the 25-year tagline with "Pork: Be Inspired."

Integrated print, radio and television commercials will begin next month, as pork producers, packers and other pork marketers target a new consumer segment of medium to heavy pork users, representing 28% of U.S. households -- users who are influential to whom family and friends look to for advice.

The new target audience is the consequence of extensive market segmentation work conducted last year that provided the Pork Board with more information about consumers and consumer demand than it's ever had, noted Ceci Snyder, the board's vice president for consumer marketing, during a meeting with trade reporters at the forum yesterday.

Its demographics enjoy cooking, enjoy a good meal, enjoy pork but feel that they are on "auto-pilot" and "are ready for fresh ideas," she said. "They see the glass as half full."

The new tagline will appear in the familiar blue "pic" and is the surviving idea of a number of taglines that were carved down to six and then "Be Inspired" in consumer focus groups that found it "quick and simple," Snyder said.

It expresses pork's personality as "unapologetic, assertive, energetic, optimistic and a leader," and its voice that pork is creative, delicious, tempting and inspiring -- "that we are pork" -- she said.

Snyder said the "Other White Meat" slogan, which is one of the five most memorable taglines in advertising history, is not being retired but will continue to be used in certain communications, including nutrition communications, and on web sites and wearables. "It is out heritage brand,' she said.

"We are dropping our comparison to chicken," added Pork Board chief executive officer Chris Novak. From now on, he said, "pork stands on its own."

Minnesota pork producer Dianne Bettin, a member of the board's marketing committee, said she believes producers will be excited about the new branding effort. "We heard a lot from producers during the (losses taken in the 2008-10 period) that we need to market better. We heard that message.

"We won't need to sell this to our producers. They are eager for this new face."

The board's marketing team will present the campaign to delegates at the Pork Act this afternoon.

The forum houses the annual business meetings of the Pork Act, which advises the Pork Board on policy, and the National Pork Producers Council.

LOL

[Rawnoc]

Yeah well I heard that my cousin's neighbor's babysitter's mother once met a guy who had a former roommate who said the onion rings are to die for.

GO DAVE!!!!

[MikeDDKing]

I just saw a comment by a friend of my sister's that Famous Dave's is one of their family favorites. Perhaps Rawnoc's taste buds are a better indicator than I thought.

[Rawnoc]

"In the fourth quarter, we announced another share buyback authorization, under which we repurchased 174,100 shares of common stock, at an average price of $10.33 per share, excluding commissions, for a total of approximately $1.8 million."

[Rawnoc]

Famous Dave's Reports Full Year Results of $0.82 Per Share
Includes One-Time Net Gain of $0.15 Per Share

[Hairy Calls]

I really wanted to add some under $10 but didn't have the funds. Should be a great year for DAVE.

[Rawnoc]

Remember -- any dip is absorbed by company buyback shares IMO thereby constantly decreasing the float and increasing the EPS.

[Hairy Calls]

Looks like everyone that wanted out before earnings got out this morning and those who want in before are buying now.

[Rawnoc]

http://www.action3news.com/Global/story.asp?S=13832602

[Rawnoc]

[Rawnoc]

BAM!!! :)

[Rawnoc]

Tis the season for BBQ gorging.

[Tina]

you went to a Christmas party that was catered by a BBQ restaurant?

you Californians are strange people! lol

[Rawnoc]

Cool, I'm pretty sure we have Food Lion here...I'm so there.

I really do like all of their BBQ sauces, but my favorite are Rich & Sassy and Sweet & Zesty. If I was stuck on an island and had to pick just one I'd probably go with Rich & Sassy.

I like Dave's at putting more and more marketing strength into catering/to-go (at least at my local restaurant they are). I went to an Xmas party that used Famous Dave's to cater (and I had nothing to do with the planning of that lol). Boy was I in heaven.

Did I mention that I like the food/sauce at Famous Dave's?

[Tina]

I found it at Food Lion which I guess is a chain.

Which sauce?

[Rawnoc]

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was that at a chain? I gotta see if I can get that around here myself!!!!!

Have I mentioned that I like the sauce?

[Tina]

Thought you'd like this

found a "new item" in our grocery store today (picked up a few bottles too :)

[Rawnoc]

Reminder -- DAVE trades options. I have some call options which are really kicking major butt.

[Rawnoc]

DAVE is .15 away from a fresh 2 year high.

[Rawnoc]

A friend of mine just got back from the army, and he is demanding we feast on Famous Dave's.

And being such a good friend, I'm going to make the sacrifice for him.... ;)

[Hairy Calls]

Thanks for sharing both!

[Rawnoc]

Wise on both accounts.

[Quinnradio]

not bad...

[Rawnoc]

Ate again at DAVE last night after eating really good ribs in Texas last Friday....

I must say, DAVE is comparable. Maybe even better.

[Rawnoc]

DAVE -- target $20 to $30 IMO in 2011. Here's why:

(1) Decent growth, low PE, priced cheap for a company in the restaurant industry. I think DAVE sales and earnings will further improve rapidly as the economy recovers.

(2) Competitors have slashed prices and portions on their menu to attract business. DAVE has done little to none of that, refusing to cheapen their brand and image for the long run. This tells me that if operations are still going this well during tough times without discounting, they're going to really clean up as things improve and competitors raise their prices back to normal levels.

(3) I really like their unusually very high profit margins for a restaurant chain. I further like that they are expanding again, having announced new store openings coming including bringing them to Hawaii.

(4) In a recent article, the CEO was mentioned stating he's seeing stability in the economy, and that he "feels better about consumers' willingness to spend"

http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=55370815

(5) DAVE has been aggressively buying back shares...

"During the first two quarters, we also used approximately $4.9 million to repurchase shares under our current share repurchase program. We repurchased approximately 654,000 shares, at an average price of $7.51, excluding commissions. As of today, we have repurchased 761,000 shares under our 1 million share authorization that was approved in August of 2008.Christopher will have a few closing comments, but at this point, we'd like to take your question."

http://seekingalpha.com/article/229272-famous-dave-s-of-america-ceo-discusses-f2q10-results-earnings-call-transcript?source=yahoo

Interesting. I calculate that for every 4 shares traded between July 1 and July 28, the company bought back and retired more than 1 share.

(6) I am highly addicted to their food and BBQ sauce. They are a relatively small chain, but I think they will be a giant chain some day. Tony Roma's is probably the most famous BBQ rib chain, and I think their food is disgusting. DAVE should destroy them. They continue to win awards for their recipe across the country:

http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=55371008

[Rawnoc]

Wise.

[Daylas]

WOW! have to get some after JBII goes to 20!

[Rawnoc]

$20 to $30.

[Daylas]

Whats your target for the next year? 15 bucks?

[Rawnoc]

Less now considering how much they keep buying back shares.

[Daylas]

Only 8.6 million OS according to Yahoo...

[Rawnoc]

DAVE -- fresh 2 year high again today.
