Objective
The Man Company intended to promote their limited edition Valentine’s Day Special Gift boxes. The brand wanted to target young, social media savvy audience in metro cities and wanted to create curiosity about the premium products and contents of the gift boxes, to drive the sales.

However, there were two major challenges in this –how to ensure that content generated by influencers lead to maximum purchase consideration and how to achieve this with minimal marketing spends.
To bring this campaign to life, the brandcollaborated with Qoruz to create a unique Qoruz Rewards campaign.,
Team Qoruz conceptualized a unique ‘Show, Tell and Sell’ campaign, wherein male and female micro influencers from the fashion and lifestyle niche were selected to share an authentic, first-hand experience of the product with their audience, which mostly comprised of a young urban demographic.
Using Qoruz Scout – a real-time discovery engine with more than 6 million influencer profiles - 50 Instagram influencers were selected for a special doorstep delivery of the Valentine’s Day gift box, and in exchange of this, they could talk about their experience with the products and put up the review on their Instagram channels.
Each Influencer was also provided with a unique promo code that their followers could use to redeem additional discounts when they purchased the gift box from TMC website. This ensured that the influencers created curiosity around the product by demonstrating its contents and packaging in detail, and also provided a substantial purchase nudge through the discount codes.
