Ocean Spray and Captiv8’s Craisins® Dried Cranberries Holiday Activation Named “Most Effective Influencer Campaign” Finalist in 2021 Effective Mobile Marketing Awards
SAN FRANCISCO – October, 6, 2021 – Captiv8 is proud to announce that its work with Ocean Spray on its Craisins® dried cranberries 2020 Holiday Campaign has been named a “Most Effective Influencer Campaign” finalist in this year’s Effective Mobile Marketing Awards.
For this particular influencer marketing strategy, Captiv8 and Ocean Spray were interested in driving brand and product awareness along with purchase consideration for Craisins® dried cranberries. To achieve this, Captiv8 partnered with food and lifestyle creators to produce content that showcased Craisins® dried cranberries as a key ingredient and holiday dish. To further demonstrate the value that influencer marketing efforts can have on a brand, Captiv8 also tapped Nielsen’s Market Lift Study to better understand and measure the correlation between the Craisins® dried cranberries Holiday campaign and in-store sales at Walmart.
The campaign was focused on the concept of togetherness during the holidays. Content ranged from crowd-pleasing seasonal recipes for hosting, to holiday hacks to keep on hand, to putting a twist on a dish by adding Craisins® dried cranberries as a key ingredient. Content was also created to leave viewers with a clear call to action, encouraging them to view more recipe content at OceanSpray.com and purchase Craisins® brand line of products at Walmart so that viewers could recreate this dish for their next dinner party with friends and family.
The results from the Nielsen study revealed that this campaign drove a significant 4.2% sales lift directly attributed to Captiv8’s holiday activation. Further up the funnel of measurement, and according to data pulled through Captiv8’s API partnerships and reporting capabilities, this campaign also resulted in 60 total posts, 22.5M impressions, nearly 16k clicks, 248k total engagements and an 80% positive sentiment score – which was 2x better than the set benchmark.
