Background

Davids natural toothpaste is a fluoride-free, sulfate-free premium solution to dental care with eco-friendly packaging. The high-performance ingredient, nano-hydroxyapatite, was first developed by NASA to help repair and strengthen the teeth of astronauts and is proven to remineralize the enamel on teeth.

The Job

Davids Toothpaste sought Cartograph’s help to gain market share, make their entry-level product profitable long-term, launch kits and bundles, and implement a strategic advertising plan.

Cartograph Approach
