The inaugural season of With Love, Meghan was released about a month before As Ever’s first launch and did feature some of its products, including the brand’s flower sprinkles, which turned out to be a hit with customers.
UK-based brand and culture expert Nick Ede told Newsweek: “The viewership is down, people don’t really care about With Love, there’s some fans who will always be appreciative of it. For Netflix, the headache here is that, is this going to convert into sales for their product, are they actually going to make money from this?
“If you think about it, they haven’t really made any money just yet. Their investment must have been huge into actually creating the product and building the brand, rebranding it and putting it out there and this Season 2 is a missed opportunity which could have been a glorified infomercial if they’d got it right.”
The specialist characterized the timing of the recent launch as a “massive problem” because the two seasons were shot consecutively, providing minimal opportunity to showcase As Ever’s upcoming releases.
He clarified: “If they had done two separate seasons they could have done a lot product placement with her As Ever brand but obviously when the show first started they didn’t have any products.
“So you would see her using some flower sprinkles or you would see her drinking a glass of rosé, but you wouldn’t actually attribute that to As Ever, so there isn’t a crossover here. That’s why there is a massive problem.”
Though the second season of Meghan’s Netflix series was revealed shortly following the debut of the first season, no announcement regarding a third season has been confirmed since August 26.
Nevertheless, Meghan’s supporters will have something to anticipate as the program will broadcast a Christmas special later this year.
Mr Ede noted: “Obviously, she’s got a Christmas special and hopefully she’ll be able to include some of her actual products in there too.”
