Description
1. Utilizing Influencers for PR
Utilize big Tech channels to precisely target active online consumers interested in tech. Each channel has millions of subscribers who love the content and creator, also spontaneous consumer visits. The UltraWide Festival selected three channels; invited the creators as competition judges; and on their channels, directly encouraged people to join the event.
2. Campaign structure that best suits Social Reach
Designed a campaign structure where all competition participants create content (videos or images) and upload to their social media. Content with the brand hashtag were exposed automatically to participant’s friends, creating second and third marketing waves.
3. Choosing Campaign Theme, based on Consumer Interest
Analyzing target consumer behavior, we discovered lots of users showing off their Desk Setups.
The UltraWide Festival’s theme of a chance to make your ‘Dream Desk Setup’ come true, encouraged target audience engagement with a self-sustaining viral effect.
