The Challenge
In October 2023, a Cosmetics brand wanted to run a campaign on a new product to drive engagement at scale. Their goal was to reach intenders in the right frame of mind to convert and drive purchase trials.
The Insight
Leveraging Australia’s number 1 health brand, Body+Soul, in combination with Vudoo’s Interactive Video technology, News Corp Australia built a multi-layered campaign incorporating Total Content, Shoppable Video and Total Commerce elements to drive awareness and consideration at every stage.
Strategy & Solutions
By utilising innovative shoppable content, alongside amplification activities, consumers were able to purchase directly from the point of inspiration, shrinking the path to purchase.
Targeting Intent Connect’s Beauty Intender audience, News Corp Australia paired this with Brand Metrics’ measurement capabilities and Vudoo’s Video Analytics to understand the brand lift delivered by the campaign across all sites, formats and devices.
Products Used
This campaign was executed using branded article content, social amplification, eCommerce content and shoppable video content.
