Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

HireInfluence was hired to assist with the branding, digital content strategy, and paid media management for a major music festival event based in Key West, FL.  They helped fill a gap for our music agency, and basically served as an extension of our team as we managed this objective for one of our largest clients. 

This included creative conceptualization and development of promotional graphics and videos that would be leveraged across TikTok and Instagram paid media efforts.  The agency implemented continuous optimization of promotional efforts, based on success within specific geographic markets (targeting 12 states total) -- prioritizing conversions and ROI.

They also deployed a roster of 20 lifestyle influencers within these markets (micro to mid tiers), that also assisted with fueling the initiative.

The overarching goal across the 4 month period was to maximize event exposure and ticket sales.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Click throughs and ticket sales were comparable to the best year ever for the festival (pre-Covid).  Views for the promotional video produced by their team far exceeded expectations.  Content that was produced can be leveraged for years to come.

We believe this created a solid path to success for our festival client, and established a partnership that we will continue to lean on for comparable projects down the road.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Exceeded expectations.  Their team was second to none, and assets were delivered prior to deadlines.  With over 20 years in the creative space, this level of experience and attention to detail is rare to say the least.

What was your primary form of communication with HireInfluence?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
I was impressed by HireInfluence's attention to detail and experience.  You can tell this team has worked together for quite some time, and their experience was far above average.  The process was smooth and defined from Day 1, with only minor hiccups along the way (as expected with a project of this scale).  They were able to recommend pivots on the fly, while ensuring we remained true to the goals at hand.

Are there any areas for improvement or something HireInfluence could have done differently?

Not really.  This was one of the smoothest partnerships we have ever had in place from the creative and promotional end of things.  We are looking forward to the next opportunity we have to work with them.

We briefed Hire Influence on our project and it's goals. They came back to us with several influencers and their information for us to choose who we wanted to work with for this project.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Over the course of 3 campaigns to support 3 different products, Hireinfluence was the exclusive influencer agency to source influencers & manage content through brief to execution for microinfluencer campaigns. The Hireinfluence team was given a budget for influencer source & scope, and then a budget for boosting content (for 2 of the 3 campaigns). For each campaign, Hireinfluence scoped 8-12 influencers to create 2 posts each, inclusive of paid & organic usage rights. The Hireinfluence team worked quickly, sourced incredible talent that would go on to be huge for the brand, were always flexible and agile to our needs, and always kept the brand equity & vision in tact. They kept spreadsheets, shipping data, deliverables & content previews/approval organized, timely, and always exceeded expectations. When the content would be successful in the brand's paid media running on Meta, Hireinfluence seamlessly helped us secure incremental usage rights. The communication was always clear and effective. 

For each campaign, the deliverables were:

8-12 influencers, 2 posts each

Each post to have 30 days paid usage & 90 days organic usage 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Effective content that could be used in multiple ways for long periods of time (3 months)

Creation of strong relationships with on-brand influencers

Carved out new influencer demographic with proven success (45+ influencers)

Exceeded EMV (Earned Media Value) estimations for each campaign

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

The Hireinfluence team was always available by email, and kept their documentation constantly organized and easily accessible. With a meeting-heavy culture at the brand, we always had a kick-off and wrap-up meeting, so it was wonderful to be able to connect virtually when we needed to, and then handle via email for convenience and ease. 

What was your primary form of communication with HireInfluence?

• Virtual Meeting

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Their ability to be agile, their diverse pool of influencers, their unique approach to campaigns, their structure as a team is most impressive.

Are there any areas for improvement or something HireInfluence could have done differently?

Opportunities to extend campaigns - i.e. a fixed rate should we want all influencers to do a 3rd post, etc. Also opportunity to structure the partnership as an always-on retainer vs. as separate campaigns.
