Problem
Problem.
TruVintage66 is a local business whose sales are generated from trunk shows and festivals, primarily in Seattle. We needed to create awareness in the D.C./Maryland/Virginia metro area (the DMV). Though the owner/artist has a large network in the DMV, she was looking to reach new, potential customers.
Strategy
Strategy.
- To create a multi-day campaign instead of a singular post. This would allow us to maximize reach and ensure the message was repeatedly delivered.
- To leverage a low-cost marketing tool to reach TV66’s target audience (women, African-American women & men, age 30+) in the DMV.
- To showcase the products because TV66 does not have a website.
- To design a theme that that matches the products and TV66 owner/artists style and standards.
Solution
Solution.
- I came up with the concept of a 10-day countdown leading up to the Festival for the multi-day campaign.
- I utilized Facebook's marketing tools to reach TruVintage's target audience in the DMV. I boosted posts on Facebook and Instagram.
- My countdown campaign created an opportunity to feature over 10 pieces across TV66's jewelry line.
- All TruVintage66 jewelry is one of a kind, so I created a design strategy to visually represent the products. I incorporated handwritten typography to align to the uniqueness of TV66 accessories. I paired that typeface with a thin, elegant font to draw on the elegance of the jewelry. TV66's brand colors include chocolate, and raspberry, and kraft paper tan. I used combinations of those colors for the countdown tags on each post.
- Post 7 ("4 days until") featured a "sold" stamp to create desire since people tend to want what they can't have/what others have.
