Essentia Water Selects Periscope As Creative Agency Of Record

"Essentia pioneered ionized alkaline water with its proprietary manufacturing process. It is truly a unique product, and in a recent clinical study, Essentia was shown to be better at rehydrating than a leading bottled water brand" said Karyn Abrahamson, Vice President of Marketing & Brand Innovation at Essentia Water ¹ "We have gained momentum over the past few years but we are focused on the future, which is why we have been looking for the right strategic partner to handle all our needs. Our search ended with Periscope, due to to their track record of transforming businesses and their extensive experience in CPG, digital and media."

As the creative AOR, Periscope will execute on the vision of the brand and lead marketing strategies across all communications channels, including advertising, digital, social, paid search and retail. Efforts will build on Essentia's strengths, including its position as the leading premium bottled water in natural retailers² to continue the transformation of the brand into a leading player in the premium water category. At the end of 2016 Essentia was available at over 35,000 locations across the USA and passed $50M in retail measured sales³ for the first time.
