Munchkin

 

50,000 FANS IN JUST FIVE MONTHS

MunchkinMunchkin is an American owned brand new to the UK market. Munchkin manufacture baby products focusing the little things in their design that make a big difference to the fun and convenience for mothers and toddlers.

New to the UK market Munchkin is starting to make inroads with the big retailers to develop a strong distribution network this side of the pond. A major part of this effort is increasing awareness amongst mums and mums-to-be.

 

Our Social Media Marketing is very much about building awareness of the brand and developing an understanding of the products in the Munchkin range. To help build a case for the retailers (and of course to show the Americans what we could do!) we needed to build awareness quickly. With highly targeted and continually monitored facebook advertising were able to achieve a very strong community of mums in just a handful of months. These mums now know about, buy in to and talk regularly about the Munchkin brand.

In just five months, we achieved 45.5 million impressions via facebook advertising with a further 2.8 million impressions by actively managing the page and enticing facebook initiatives and regular posts. We far exceeded the targets set and needless to say the Americans were soon asking us for advice on Social Media!

Munchkin Brand Manager, Gareth Matthews says:

“Munchkin is a brand with huge potential. We’ve got our work cut out to rival more established UK brands in our market but the work Mark and Lindsey have done with our social media has been amazing. We’ve been delighted with the results and hope to see the Munchkin online presence continue to go from strength to strength. The team work hard to fully understand the brand and products, liaising with Customer Services and our PR company to enable them to deliver a credible voice for our brand via facebook. By skilfully managing our online advertising they have delivered a cost effective campaign with really fantastic results.”

 

Lindam

 

TARGETS SMASHED WITH AN ACTIVE COMMUNITY OF 32,000 MUMS

lindam LtdLindam is the UK’s number one brand for safety gates. With global distribution, Lindam is the first choice for millions when it comes to buying child and pet safety gates from leading retailers such as Argos, Asda and Amazon.

Whilst Lindam is an established company with great distribution, the brand itself was not particularly top of mind in the baby product sector. More targeted branding was required and as part of this effort, in June 2011, we took over their Social Media Marketing and quickly took their facebook and Twitter communities to a whole new level. In just five months we’d increased their facebook fanbase from 286 to 32,000 and this continues to grow month on month.

On behalf of Lindam now manage a very loyal and engaged community of mums who love interacting with the Lindam facebook page, posting comments, uploading photos, entering competitions, discussing relevant issues and taking part in surveys.  In less than five months the Lindam brand received 1.5 million facebook impressions from our regular posts and a further 21 million through our carefully managed facebook advertising campaigns. This activity continues today with Social Media playing a significant role in Lindam’s ongoing branding strategy.

Lindam Brand Manager, Claire Rayner says:

“Mark and Lindsey have been managing our social media and internet marketing activity for the Lindam brand and since taking this over they have had a significant impact on our overall social media presence.

They are responsible for managing the day to day running of our Twitter and Facebook pages along with driving follower growth through a mix of advertising platforms. We are seeing a fantastic return on investment and thanks to their great efforts we are already substantially exceeding our initial follower annual target. Bigfoot Digital is an integral part of our marketing team and will continue to drive our online strategy forward in the future”.
