22.01.2022 Digital storytelling in the palm of your hand Even though Snapchat pioneered the 'Story' feature in 2013, it has emerged as one of Instagram's most popular content formats. With 500 million daily users, Instagram stories are a great way for brands to elevate their visual content strategy to drive higher engagement levels and retention rates. Recently, brands have achieved strong results using Instagram stories. Gap Inc. ran a Stories Ad campaign which resulted in a 7...3% higher click-through rate than its previous 'non-stories' campaign. What's more, one in three daily Instagrammers said they have become more interested in a brand or product after they had seen it on Stories. As your audience continues to consume more and more content from Instagram Stories, will your brand be there to greet them? #instagramstories #instagramtips #creativeagency #digitalmarketingagency #creativebrisbane (Source 1: Statista) (Source 2: Mediakix) (Source 3: Instagram) See more

09.01.2022 It's no secret that TikTok has become a staple of internet culture for Generation Z.

Annnndd now cue Instagram reeling in ... ... Instagram launched its newest feature to Aussie screens today, it's called Instagram Reels and it's a direct attempt to take on TikTok. Similar to TikTok, the new feature allows users to share short videos set to audio, such as music or a voice-over. Reels will have its own grid within the app, but the videos will also appear in Explore pages - meaning BIG opportunity for influencers and brands to be discovered and grow. While this isn't the first time Instagram has been accused of cloning competitive features, it remains to be seen whether Instagram Reels will grow an audience big enough to make the feature worth their while. #instagramreels #tiktok #reels #creativeagency #digitalmarketingagency #creativebrisbane See more

09.01.2022 Say hello to Reforest Reforest is a social benefit enterprise focused on reducing carbon emissions. One of the challenges the organisation faced was needing to educate the public about carbon offsets and showing how the bystander mentality is not sustainable for creating change. Soak developed a strong brand identity for Reforest that represented reforestation projects in a novel way. We conceptualised a feature on the app where consumers could grow their own forest to make... a flight carbon negative. Through this tangible and visual representation of tree planting, the idea of carbon offsetting became less intimidating to consumers and Reforest gained a strong point of difference. When we start flying again, let's make sure we do it sustainably Want to see more? Follow the link below. https://soak.co/work/reforest/

09.01.2022 How do you keep front of mind when everybody is social distancing? This week it feels like the COVID-19 bomb really dropped. The business world has taken a deep breath, jobs are under threat, an economy in free fall... its tempting to pull up the drawbridge and hide.... It feels like unless you're selling facemasks, hand wash or toilet paper your customers won't care about you this week. They might not care about your product or service next week either, or the week after that ... ...but they will care again, and when they do, will they still remember you? Now is not the time to disappear and isolate from your audience. Remain visible and continue to engage with your current and future customers. Show everyone that you will get through this and that your eyes are on the future. Now is the time to strategically plan the next 6-12 months and it is fundamental to keep your product/service top of mind, and to not vanish infront your loyal customer base. We know these times are hard, and your spirits might be low, but unusual times call for unique thinking. Soak is as creative as ever, and we want to help you through this. So to paraphrase Rudyard Kipling "If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs...", keep your head up, keep marketing and keep engaging with your audience. If you want to hear our free thoughts on your potential 6-month strategy, call us on 1300 418 868 #wearehereforyou
