Intro
Verb’s mission is to create salon-quality hair products at affordable prices. As part of their marketing efforts, Verb took their social media marketing to a new level, increasing the amount of content generated and asking “Verb Friends” to post about them on Instagram. Verb Friends was the perfect platform for customers to share their love of Verb online. While they saw a huge amount of success implementing Verb friends, Verb wanted to accelerate how many Friends were posting about the brand, and get analytics on the resulting content.
Challenges
- Encourage every-day customers to tag Verb in Instagram posts
- Find rewards that will produce a good ROI and be compelling for customers
- Separate and understand how customers, stylists, and Verb Friends act differently on Instagram
Results
Immediately after announcing the Verb Friends rewards program, Verb saw an impressive increase in posts, impressions, and users posting multiple times. Best of all, these are high-quality posts that meet requirements set by Verb. With the high engagement rate, authenticity, and quality of the posts, these posts and impressions bring in more value than potential paid Instagram ads, influencer posts, or brand posts.
