Aubaine Veganuary Campaign

Influencer outreach event

Objective

To raise awareness of their Veganuary menu on Instagram and drive traffic to their website.

Strategy

The brief was to approach and secure 20 vegan influencers in London to visit Aubaine and try the new Veganuary menu throughout January. We confirmed 25 high profile vegan influencers to go into the restaurants and enjoy their vegan offerings. These influencers ranged in Instagram following from 7.5k to over 1m. We worked hard to keep a spread of influencers visiting over the course of the month, managed their bookings and tracked and monitored their resulting content. In exchange for a meal, we asked the influencers to document their experience to their followers through Instagram Stories or a post on their Instagram profile. 

Results

  • Website traffic from Instagram was up on the previous month by 301%.
  • Throughout January we gained 732 Instagram followers, an increase of 7.2%.
  • Average post engagement rate changed from 1.20% in December to 1.44% in January.
