Challenge 3: Adhering by-laws

In view of the industry's regulatory requirements, we had to take into account various compliance considerations while crafting a social media strategy for the client.

Project Execution

Building Audience

To start building the client's social media presence, we initiated by reaching out to their closest stakeholders - the employees. We informed them of the launch of the social media channels and utilized targeted social media ads to engage with them.

Employee Branding

Our strategy for the client's social media was centered around the employees, with content that encouraged interaction and participation in conversations. The approach was well-received and led to a steady influx of new followers, with hundreds joining every day.

Live Updates

We expanded our targeting to include the next important stakeholders - investors and customers. As a result, social media played multiple roles for our client.

Project Results

Over the course of 2 years, we built a targeted social media community of over 150,000 individuals with relevant profiles for our client. As the community grew, engagement numbers increased, and the channel became the most active in comparison to other channels across the countries where the client operates, outperforming even the parent organization based in Germany.
