Torva
Hype Factory ran Torva's first global influencer campaign on YouTube in the United States, generating more than 70K views at a 2.69% engagement rate.
Case in 60 seconds
Torva entered the United States with kitchen and outdoor living products that had no established presence there, and the page describes this as the brand's first global influencer marketing campaign, so awareness had to be built from nothing.
The campaign appears to turn on the reading that a new product needs explaining before it can be wanted, which is why long-form video carrying design, functionality and ease-of-use detail was preferred over short exposure formats.
Concentrate the whole launch on one platform where creators are trusted in the outdoors and lifestyle fields, and pair a product demonstration concept with a contest that pulls audiences into making their own outdoor content.
Creators in outdoors, kitchen and lifestyle categories made 2-3 minute YouTube integration videos with a product introduction, two creative concepts, a call to action and contest details. Unboxing showed genuine reaction, purchase guidance and an exclusive discount; Sweet Memories invited before-and-after outdoor photos tagged #torva and #sweet_memories on Instagram and YouTube.
Hype Factory reports more than 70K views and an engagement rate of 2.69%, with performance passing the estimated views forecast by 12%, and describes both contest concepts as actively engaging participants.

Why Hype Factory Influencer Agency's strategy worked
- 1
A single-platform launch reads as a deliberate trade for a brand with no market history, because concentrating spend where creators hold category authority produces a measurable baseline rather than thin coverage across several surfaces.
- 2
Pairing a demonstration format with a contest appears to give one campaign two jobs, since the video explains an unfamiliar product while the hashtag entry turns viewers into people who have handled the category themselves.
- 3
Setting a views forecast before launch gives an entry campaign a way to report success without sales data, which is how the 12% overshoot rather than any commercial figure carries the outcome here.
