The brand was established in 2019 by two mothers and former fashion executives (Nike, Gap & Zappos) Catherine Newell-Hanson and Rebecca Calavan. They source the happiest kids clothing from global brands, as well as design an in-house label which are full of bold patterns and trend forward silhouettes.

Editing style will stand out from similar brands like All Small co. and Gap kids because there is a little more drama in the styling and tone . It will still be more playful then the Zara kids shoots and more casual then the Mini Rodini brand. MT has a cool factor and although the products are similar in style to those other brands there is something more hip about the MT customer/Brand. Since the founders come from a fashion background and the mothers who are a target audience would have been in the know with 90s and early 2000’s fashion campaigns, I am proposing a childlike version with the Juergen teller for Marc Jacobs spirit. That look is bright, slightly desaturated, with a sense of humor. It features friends and family posing in silly or nonsensical fashions. Teller often uses simple/plain cream backgrounds or in fields/natural landscapes. I would tweak the style influence by adding colorful and playful graphics to try to capture the heart of what the brand is striving for in its recent social media platforms. Current social media tone is carefree and goofy. Lots of images of kids being kids, with fun graphics. There are also children modeling the products and product shots, in addition to editorials from brands they sell. All images are edited to have a sunny and high contrast feel but it currently feels a bit inconsistent in lighting from post to post.

To establish trust and gain more followers, we will target some micro-Influencers of the mom blogs. I am suggesting to reach out to 5-10 “mom-fluencers” who could either create a post or some UGC content in exchange for either some Milk Teeth products for their little ones or a small amount of money. After researching, I have found the profiles of a few Influencers who may be a good fit. Their social media style has a similar vibe to the Milk teeth brand. These women seem to embody the ideal target audience with a cool, carefree, and creative essence. Here are their social profiles and follower counts on Instagram. Many of them also have blogs and other socials we could employ.

These marketing strategies will accomplish the goals of increasing brand awareness and higher online sales. The use of the mom influencers posts will reach thousands of other parents and care givers of the same interest and caliber. This will lead to a higher follower rate and most likely an increase in online sales. The use of a giveaway will generate more follows, likes and possible customers through the personal profiles of the contestants. Other potential customers may be gained once the product is seen out in the real world by the contest winners.
