CPG marketers need to make authentic connections with new and existing audiences to drive results. Whether you’re considering adding creator partnerships, music integrations, or product placement in film & tv into your marketing strategy, BENlabs has you covered.
We’ve helped clients and products like Canon, General Mills Cheerios, Frito-Lay, and Noom (to name but a few) achieve incredible results creating impactful content through our AI tools and guiding media spend across influencer marketing, product placement in movies and TV, music partnerships and paid media.
There’s no such thing as a captive audience anymore. Marketers must leverage data insights to determine the best places and the right messages to reach buyers and drive action.
Consumers are discovering brands and trends through relatable influencers. They’re following health and parenting advice and seeking recipes from lifestyle content creators. They’re skipping ads and are being exposed to new household products and snacks, through their favorite music, movie, TV, and social content. At BENlabs, we’ll analyze your audience’s social and digital shopping behavior, serve up opportunity audiences, and craft recommendations across the entertainment landscape so you’re there, in all the right places.
Movies, music, TV, and social media split audiences. The average household has 5.2 streaming services. There isn’t any one source that all people go to for cooking advice or content. Food and CPG brands need to show up meaningfully, in multiple places, to really make an impact with their audiences.
Showing up in social feeds, with music artists, in movie theaters or on the hot streaming show is great, but food brands also need to know exactly how these content engagements drive brand activations back to their business and they need a guarantee that their efforts will move the needle on the growth KPIs that matter. They need a partner who can make sense of both structured and unstructured data to derive clear and actionable business insights.
We offer a full suite of AI-driven marketing services ranging from influencer integrations to product placement. Our self-serve AI SAAS puts the BENlabs AI tools, trained by over nearly 30,000 campaigns, in your hands. BENlabs proprietary AI models help tech brands find receptive audiences, level-up content, and drive audience action with predictable, measurable results against KPIs.
When you work with BENlabs, you can scale your brand’s reach, brand affinity, recall, and sales… but we’re getting ahead of ourselves.
On average, people spend 6.7 years of their life on social media. By contrast, they spend under two years socializing IRL. People watch 5.7 hours of video a day on average, but they’re not watching in any one place. They’re accessing billions of hours of video content spread across thousands of streaming services and social platforms. 93% of us listen to music regularly, and the 27-42 year-olds (millennials) listen 75.1% more than older generations.
There are exciting statistics for any food or CPG brand that has learned to adapt, developing the deep audience intelligence required to meet prospects where they live online. On the flip side, it’s damning data for any brand that sees the diminishing returns on their marketing efforts and doesn’t find the right partner to help them go where the data leads.
For brands, it comes down to a need to get noticed. It’s about more than showing up; your food product or CPG brand needs to stand out. To make a real connection with audiences.
Knowing where to reach audiences is important, knowing how to reach them is at least as important.

Omnilux tapped BENlabs to build out a brand ambassador program to shortcut skepticism by going straight from introduction to social proof.
The BENlabs team put AI to work and helped Omnilux max out in the obvious verticals including beauty, health, mom lifestyle and general female lifestyle. BENlabs AI also identified some less obvious but, algorithmically-speaking, super-receptive verticals to deliver smart scale and maximum impact including interior design, fashion, crafting, and DIY.
Over 15.9M impressions and 155K clicks, Omnilux realized a 2.28x return on ad spend (ROAS), a peak 408% decrease in the cost to acquire a customer (CAC) and a 215% decrease in blended CAC over the campaign period.

Noom, a subscription-based program that helps users make small behavioral changes that add up to big transformations. BENlabs developed a two-part campaign, using AI to find aligned small and midsize influencers in the health, wellness, motherhood, lifestyle, and fitness verticals to introduce audiences to Noom at scale.
Results: Content from 90+ creators netted 5.5M+ views. At its peak, the campaign generated over 3,000 quality signups per month, increasing the Noom customer lifetime value (LTV) from 70% to 90%.
