28. 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.
