GranataPet recently launched a new interactive campaign that shows how clever marketing can get. As featured on Mashable, this campaign (running in Germany) introduced a new, Pomegranate-based dog food to their target market (dog walkers) at a plausible point of entry (while they are walking their dogs.)
