CASE STUDY 1:
Growing a Large Beauty Brand’s Online Community

Campaign Overview
ASK: A large beauty brand reached out to
Obviously to launch their online community of
makeup enthusiasts.
RESULT: Over 150 influencers joined the brand’s
online beauty community, sparking discussions,
posting videos and reviews, and encouraging
their followers to join as well.
27
Gamification
Influencers were offered incentives for going
above and beyond the minimum brief
● We sent influencers gift cards to the site. When the Network officially launched, influencers
posted on Instagram featuring their favorite beauty products and put out a targeted call to
action for their audiences to follow them on the Network.
● Influencers earned additional products for remaining active on the Network. This generated a
massive variety of content for the brand from Instagram Stories, how-to videos, positive
reviews, and discussions. On average, influencers made 6x more posts on the community
board than required and created 1.75x more permanent posts on Instagram.

Project Improvement Over Time
Brand Follower Growth Over Time
The brand’s Instagram following has been steadily rising over the course of their collaboration with Obviously. We
have also observed a strong correlation between influencer impressions and the brand’s followers.
Influencers are people, not ad units
2. Stop the Hustle
Influencers get to work with one brand they love, rather than a
bunch of one-off campaigns for several brands.
1. A Relationship Forms
If they’re authentically excited about the opportunity, this
makes for more and better content.
3. The Enthusiasm Shows In the Content
The audience responds to this excitement.
