Marketer: Emson
Watch the spot
This is a new-and-improved version of Egg Genie, a 2009 hit that Emson resurrected in 2013 but that did not make my True Top Spenders for the year. I've done quite a bit of pre-DRTV testing of items similar to this, and all of it indicated there isn't a market opportunity here. But you never know.
S7 Analysis: The big question is whether this will be perceived as different enough to renew interest. Adding the pitch from Egg-Tastic (a 2015 True Top Spender) is an interesting way to attempt it, but the demo happens too late in the commercial to stand out.
