Boosting dance content for Beyoncé's 'Texas Hold 'Em', resulting in global #1's and multi-platform virality 🤠
Beyoncé's new iconic country song 'Texas Hold 'Em' came across our desks and we jumped at the chance to not only work on a Beyoncé campaign, but also a country one! 🤠
Dance trends were beginning to emerge on the sound, so we decided to run a challenge, boosting this dance content and allowing organic hype style posts to come through!
Our Challenge feature is a wonderful way to flood activated sounds with lots of creative content!
Challenges; influencers get pay-outs at certain view check-points - this is what incentivises creators to only take part in challenges that they truly resonate with and can create great content for! We notice a 30-40% increase in amount of material with challenges due to gamification, which also protects the budget for strong engagement.
