B&G Foods Exceeds Hiring Goal in Only 4 Weeks with Integrated Advertising Approach

B&G Foods implemented an integrated advertising approach for the month of May, with the goal to hire 100 people and open their Pickles & Peppers plant on June 1st. Thanks to Click Through Rate (CTR) and Cost Per Click (CPC) numbers that surpassed the industry average for job services, the plant is fully staffed and was able to open on time.

The Challenge

B&G Foods needed to hire 100 employees in only 30 days to open their Pickles and Peppers plant for the season.

Solution

Using Connected TV, Connected Radio, Traditional Radio, Boost, and Social Ads, B&G Foods was able to target a large demographic of both English and Spanish speaking applicants and meet their goal in just four weeks.
