Netflix's Bridgerton Campaign: A Triumph in Audience Engagement Dominating Conversations and Captivating Screens In Kenya
The Goal
Netflix, a trailblazer in the streaming industry, sought to launch a new season of its immensely popular show, Bridgerton. The challenge lay in ensuring that this new season not only captured the audience's attention but also ignited conversations that would permeate social spheres and lead to binge-watching sessions.
Aspiring to maintain top-of-mind awareness for the show and infusing the campaign with elements of FOMO (Fear of Missing Out), the objective was clear, yet the approach needed to be both innovative and strategically impactful.
The Direction
Enter the "Dominating Screens and Conversations" campaign. Leveraging our platform’s pool of creators, Netflix curated a multi-platform strategy encompassing Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, and Podcasts. The campaign enlisted Nanos, key influencers, to drive discussions on Twitter, subtly weaving in conversations about Bridgerton.
Nano influencers were our key influencers pushing volumes on the streets of Twitter through conversations around the show. Our 5 premium influencers changed, their profile pictures to represent the characters of the show. Aside from their commissioned deliverables, we had a number of value-added pieces from them as well.
These influencers embraced their roles further by adopting the personas of the show's characters in their profile pictures, enhancing immersion.
The pinnacle of the campaign was a Twitter Space event hosted by Kwamboxx, a move that proved monumental. As conversations swirled around the show's anticipation, the event trended as the #1 topic for a remarkable 36 hours.
We recognized the potential of influencers to spark genuine conversations about the show, and the Twitter Space was a masterstroke in engagement.
