Primark Boston Scaling Strategy

Exponential Growth Formula.

The Objective:

Primark, one of Europe’s largest fast fashion businesses on par with Zara and H&M, wished to expand rapidly in the United States, starting with their US flagship market in Boston. To create a workable model that could be replicated to other markets and scaled across the U.S., they asked T1 to grow them into one of the most prominent and recognizable brands in Boston through a 3 month all-encompassing campaign that consisted of live events, influencers, press, and digital marketing.

The Strategy:

We architected a well-rounded, coordinated 12-week strategy that consisted of 1 live influencer hosted event per week at Primark’s Flagship Boston Store, a series of over 10 digital endorsements per week by the influencer host between Instagram and Snapchat, 1 headline Boston media article per week, and targeted online syndication of the resulting content to on-target viewers in the Boston Market. Over the course of the 12-week campaign, we built a coalition of 12 of Boston’s top style influencer and 4 of Boston’s top media publications who all funneled their audiences towards Primark and cemented public perception of the brand as Boston’s #1 Fashion brand. As if this wasn’t enough, we syndicated the powerful influencer and media movement taking place behind Primark to Boston’s 673,000 population on a weekly basis until we completely saturated the Boston market and Primark became the most conspicuously popular fashion brand in Boston.

The Results:

Over the course of the 12-week campaign, we executed over 100 influencer social posts for Primark, delivered more than 20 dedicated media and blog articles on the brand, generated 1000’s of organic in store posts from Primark shoppers, and established recognition of the brand with nearly on-target viewer in Boston through our syndication. The direct result, was that we were able to increase brand awareness by an astounding 60% (as measured from methodical, highly regulated sample polls) and we ignited a powerful cultural movement for Primark which turned them into Boston´s clear leader and could be replicated to scale the brand in each new American market it ventured into.

MeUndies Everyday Collection Campaign

Celebrity Headlined Event Organization and Production.

The Objective:

To drive a major impact for their biggest collection launch of the year, MeUndies wished to partner with a large collective of today’s most important style influencers and blog channels. As opposed to focusing on a single audience, MeUndies wanted to establish their Everyday Collection as the new underwear product of choice for consumer audiences across the spectrum and use high-profile media to amplify and validate this trend to produce a long-term effect.

The Strategy:

To achieve MeUndies’ objective of producing a far-reaching brand movement, we assembled a broad coalition of today’s most important fashion influencers for women ages 18-35, whose style choices are emulated in today’s most respected fashion publications such as Vogue, WWD, and Refinery 29. In total, we assembled 15 top fashion bloggers and influencers who each shape the buying behavior/pubic perception of the different demographics MeUndies wanted to capture, including such stars as Adenorah (key in influencing the Paris Market), Jill Wallace (key in influencing the High Fashion New York), Taylr Anne (key in influencing the Young Hollywood), Rachel Nguyen (key in influencing the Asian Demographic), etc. During launch week, we produced over 100 pieces of captivating content which our influencers published across all channels (Instagram, Blogs, Facebook, and Twitter) to transform the Everyday Collection into the most conspicuous undies trend in every consumer market MeUndies wanted to hit. For the final blow, Forbes Magazine authentically published an article narrating and validating The Everyday Collection’s meteoric rise to prominence and citing our innovative influencer marketing model for the reason why.

The Results:

Through the precise recipe of our vast influencer coalition, the magnitude of campaign content, and the headline Forbes article we were able to dramatically exceed every one of MeUndies KPI’s and produce a brand movement that ignited exponential growth in every key market. The campaign was such a hit that it’s approach was later described as the gold standard in influencer marketing by Forbes.

Nomo Soho Hotel, New York

Celebrity Headlined Event Organization and Production.

The Objective:

The Nomo Soho Hotel wished to plan a celebrity headlined, media covered event to ignite consumer traffic and overall brand presence during NY Fashion Week, February 2016. Despite the fact the Nomo Soho only had a limited budget, they still wished to create a tremendous impact amongst fashion week patrons as well as in the associated press, and put their faith in us to devise an ultra cost-effective method to pull it off.

The Strategy:

In order to secure the support of a few prominent celebrities (whose presence in turn would attract the media coverage the Nomo Soho desired) we organized a live photo exhibition of the latest works of a trending fashion photographer Bryce Thompson which strategically featured many of today’s most coveted pop icons and supermodels in the actual display images. Since these stars gave their consent to be featured and were therefore tied to the event naturally, we were able to garner the organic support of celebrities such as Emily Ratajkwoski, Sara Sampaio, Devon Windsor, who came to pose next to their images and create a press spectacle.

The Results:

The event was filled to the rafters with leading press publications (including People Magazine and the NY Post) covering the exhibition and the carousel of stars such as Sara Sampaio and Emily Ratajkowski passing through. It attracted an elite crowd of 500 patrons, generated an avalanche of media coverage and social media coverage, and ignited perception of the Nomo Soho as the new hot celebrity hot bed during NY Fashion Week, a perception which helped them significantly increase their sales and occupancy rate through the rest of 2016.
