Case in 60 seconds

Rainbow Light launched a new line of prenatal vitamins specialized for each stage of pregnancy, so the brand had to explain which product belonged to which stage rather than sell one item.

The campaign appears to turn on the way pregnancy guidance travels through trusted parents rather than brand channels, because the page shows over 200 parenting and pregnant influencers carrying the education themselves.

The organizing thesis was #FirstThousandDays, a campaign built so that parenting and pregnant influencers educated their audiences about a staged prenatal line rather than announcing a product launch.

Over 200 parenting and pregnant influencers posted about the prenatal line on their social media channels, supported by over 10 experiential activations such as cooking classes, Rainbow Light Mom-spa days, Mommy & Me yoga and floral arranging. A group of 50 influencers also participated in an insights survey covering social strategy, innovation, packaging and product awareness.

XOMAD reports 811 Million impressions and 2,900+ social posts at 3.06% average engagement, with campaign engagement 72% higher than the industry standards for branded Instagram content. Over 1.45 million accounts saw two or more campaign posts from different influencers, which the page presents as repeated exposure across separate creators.

Strategy Breakdown

Pregnant and parenting audiences, reached through the parenting and pregnant influencers the page credits with educating their followers about a prenatal line specialized for each stage of pregnancy.
Pregnancy guidance is sought from other parents as much as from brands, so a vitamin line divided by stage reads as better carried by people describing their own pregnancy than by product copy.
A prenatal line split by stage of pregnancy asks a shopper to identify the correct product, which is an explanation task rather than an awareness task, and the page shows the campaign answering it with education.
Rainbow Light appears in the work as the subject being explained, with influencers and events such as Mom-spa days and Mommy & Me yoga carrying that explanation rather than the brand addressing audiences directly.
Repeated exposure from separate sources appears to matter more here than any single placement, since the page counts over 1.45 million accounts that saw two or more posts from different influencers.

Why XOMAD's strategy worked

  1. 1

    A roster above 200 creators appears to buy frequency as well as coverage, because over 1.45 million accounts saw two or more posts from different influencers rather than one post once.

  2. 2

    Recruiting creators who are themselves parenting and pregnant reads as a way to make product education credible, because the account of a staged regimen arrives from someone living that stage.

  3. 3

    An influencer roster can double as a research panel, since 50 of the participants answered an insights survey on social strategy, innovation, packaging and product awareness rather than only posting.

  4. 4

    Experiential activations appear to serve as content supply as much as education, because more than 10 events gave creators occasions to post about a vitamin line rather than leaving them to invent them.
