Setting the Campaign in Motion
- Design and Tech
- Social Media Marketing
WannaThankYou is a social network platform that lets users express their gratitude to fellow users or non-users. Users can either choose a Thank You message from the WannaThankYou template or write their own personalized message.
As WannaThankYou revolves around the concept of gratitude, the arrival of Thanksgiving meant it was time for us to roll out the red carpet. We decided to leverage this event to increase the number of followers and bring in new users.
We realized we had many followers on the WTY Social Media accounts who were not WTY users. Our goal was to convert the social media followers into users and run a successful campaign.
Being a tech-driven Digital Marketing Agency in Bangalore, by default, we eliminate technical hitches, if any, before running any campaigns. We started by updating our Landing Page for the Thanksgiving 2018 Campaign.
Since the campaign was a contest, the landing page had to be designed accordingly and friendly enough for the users to participate.
The entire campaign of Thanksgiving circled around Social Media Marketing since one of the main objectives was to convert social media followers into users. We started ideating on campaign post ideas to be published on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
The following efforts brought in 2.5K+ visitors to the landing page-
Extensive research was done on the trending hashtags. Since hashtags drive social media, we wanted to use the ones which would help as many audiences discover our post as possible.
We wanted our followers to feel special and appreciated. To maximize our followers’ engagement, we posted individual Thanksgiving wishes on many of our followers’ walls.
We did expect a lot of heartwarming gratitude stories, and we featured them on our portal, encouraging many more participants to share their stories.

Although the contest gained wide popularity among the followers and was getting us more traffic organically, we also went for paid promotions which brought in extraordinary results due to-
The ad was not run on generic terms but based on the right strategy. We researched and considered the right kind of audience based on their age group, location, profession, and other factors.
The success of an ad campaign also majorly depends on the image, which needs to be optimized to gain the maximum reach. A good-quality image, a crisp message and a sound image-to-text ratio helped us reach a wider audience.
While placing an Ad, you need to consider a few factors. It can’t simply be faced anywhere, which sometimes may even backfire on us. The right placement of ads helped fetch more eyeballs and get more people to the landing page.
