Objective

Old Spice, and their PR agency, Citizen Relations, wanted to accelerate a traditional product launch with measurable influencer programs tailored for each new product. The brand sought to produce a unique and effective promotional plan leveraging online influencers to get the word out in an organic way tied to the creative brand prompts that have made Old Spice one of the biggest comeback successes in recent memory.

With an average sphere of influence of more than 100k each, the compbined participants generated tens of thousands of views and hundreds of shares on Facebook and Twitter. Bloggers’ giveaways garnered thousands of entries, many of which required spreading branded hashtags, like #smellitforward, making this series of campaigns hard to ignore.
