Our Strategy
Development of framework and format for a new Instagram video series on IGTV, with different florists competing in four weekly stages showcasing their unique skills and personalities via social media content.
Introduced a People’s Choice mechanic, allowing social media audiences to engage and vote for their favourite florists after each weekly episode.
Enlisted ‘Florist to the Stars’ Simon Lycett, interiors expert and influencer Eva Sonaike, and leading floral consultant Karen Barnes as influencers, judges and faces of the show.
Handled all filming and logistics — which took place over a single day — including photography for more creative content.
Channeling our social media expertise we came up with an IGTV series; The Great British Bloom Off.
In line with the client we developed an Instagram-first creative social media content campaign for its Florist Choice product, which enables the company’s network of florists to create unique bouquets for online customers based on whatever ‘fresh stems of the day’ are available.
