Fanbytes Major Campaigns
Fanbytes has developed creative influencer and social media marketing campaigns for top brands worldwide. Its major projects include driving huge social media engagements for Boohoo, Mattel163, and ACCA.
Boohoo x Fanbytes
During the pandemic, Boohoo sought to promote its new collections to young audiences. This was a huge challenge, knowing that the world somehow came to a halt at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic—businesses closed, and people were quarantined.
Fanbytes accepted the challenge, partnering with the best Gen Z influencers in the UK. The influencers created eight videos of themselves wearing the new Boohoo collections. These videos were then uploaded to TikTok and YouTube, targeting 16-30-year-old audiences.
The campaign was deemed successful, having a total of 23.7 million views, 3.4 million likes, and a 21.3% engagement rate.
Mattel163 x Fanbytes
The company rose to fame when it published the UNO game, gaining over 80 million downloads worldwide. Now, Mattel163 is back to launch its new mobile game, Phase 10: World Tour. It aims to drive awareness and engagement to the said game.
Fanbytes developed a strategy that would replicate UNO’s level of success. To do so, they collaborated with their top influencers and tapped into the “Magic Bean” and “Barbie” events. The agency, together with the influencers, created a series of sketches and skits and uploaded them to TikTok.
The results were satisfactory, with over 11,500 installs, more than 76,000 clicks, and a 15.2% conversion rate.
ACCA x Fanbytes
Despite being one of the leading professional accountancy firms in the world, ACCA had a major challenge in attracting younger audiences, particularly the Gen Z group. To solve this problem, Fanbytes worked with influencers to understand Gen Z’s perceptions regarding a finance career.
The influencers ran polls on their Instagram stories, and through the responses, the agency was able to draw contextual insights on accountancy. From these insights, Fanbytes worked with another group of influencers—ones who don’t look like “typical” accountants but those coming from a diverse range of socio-economic backgrounds.
Fanbytes’ influencers shared a personal story regarding finance careers on Instagram and TikTok and encouraged viewers to sign up for ACCA’s event. As a result, the company gained a big Gen Z audience, with the influencers’ campaigns receiving over 1.5 million views and more than 10,000 clicks.
