Inside the rebrand of a hiccup-stopping health innovation

Ahead of releasing their signature product in retail pharmacies, Hiccupops™ needed to update the design and storytelling strategy of their website and social media. Using the existing brand mark and packaging as a launching pad, we developed an eye-catching brand identity and consistent, engaging brand voice that captured the efficacy and excitement of this unique product.

Capturing the magic while explaining the science

See how we BALANced emotion with evidence

Hiccupops are scientifically formulated lollipops that stop occasional hiccups in seconds. Parent company, Meter Health, conducted years of research, trials and patent certifications before putting their product on the market. But there’s also an undeniably cheerful aspect to the product and its purpose. For generations, hiccup “cures” were pseudoscientific folk remedies that didn’t work, so, it seems like magic that these ingenious lollipops actually do. Our task then was to showcase the astounding, near immediate effects of Hiccupops, without losing sight of the healthcare marketing science that made them possible.
