Campaign Strategy:
Comprehensive 360-Degree Campaign Amplifies DRIFTx Abu Dhabi Showcase
Leveraging their extensive reach across the UAE, the Lovin Abu Dhabi and Lovin Dubai teams executed a meticulously planned 360-degree marketing campaign to amplify the DRIFTx event in Abu Dhabi. The campaign was strategically divided into three distinct phases: pre-event, during the event, and post-event.
In the pre-event phase, the focus was on informing the Lovin audience about the upcoming DRIFTx showcase and building anticipation through compelling visuals and behind-the-scenes content. All pre-event assets featured prominent registration links to drive partnership objectives. The team also leveraged engaging competitions to boost audience interaction and grow the client’s social media following.
During the event itself, Lovin’s on-ground coverage was pivotal, with the brand’s hosts providing real-time updates, engaging the audience, and prompting registrations for the upcoming days of the exhibition.
Finally, as a wrap-up, the Lovin team shared an event recap across multiple social channels, encapsulating the highlights of the 3-day DRIFTx showcase and leaving a lasting impression on the audience.
This comprehensive 360-degree approach, spanning pre-event, live event, and post-event strategies, allowed Lovin to effectively amplify DRIFTx in Abu Dhabi, reaching and engaging with a vast audience and driving partnership objectives throughout the campaign.
