Lessons learned
“This kind of activity, which does not focus on a product or a collection, enables us to strengthen ties and reinforce our long-term relationships [with influencers] and to reconnect with others. Perennial marketing actions like this are a good opportunity to communicate differently during a particular season. For Valentine’s Day, we wanted to celebrate love and sharing, not just for couples but with anyone who we are close to. The idea was to transfer the brand’s values through a special seeding.
I was surprised by the amount of positive reactions that we received directly from influencers but also externally — from their followers, from our followers, from the brand’s head office teams, and our press office, for example. We were thrilled with the coverage on Instagram, as more than half of the influencers targeted posted. There were some really great stories. We will definitely repeat this kind of action once or twice a season.
For the next campaign, I would recommend spending more time on benchmarking (upstream) and on sharing ideas so we can offer more to brand friends. We should concentrate on personalization and AMV branding. We would like to develop the idea of a workshop. For example, we could create chocolate egg molds with AMV branding to send to influencers to use with their families. I see an opportunity to offer a complete experience, one that is not only visual and sensual, but why not auditory?”
