Influencer program

Parks Canada Shop’s social media accounts were mainly landscape imagery, like Parks Canada Agency social media accounts and the websites had limited product photography. I identified a need to develop an Influencer program to help tell a cohesive brand story on a limited marketing budget. I collaborated with a co-worker to develop Influencer contracts, guidelines and a program. Our objectives were to use the program to obtain aspirational imagery that would relate to our target market, as well as increase brand awareness. I developed relationships with the Influencers. I gave creative direction and coordinated with them to develop and deliver photographs for marketing campaigns, and catalogues. The Influencer program helped develop a cohesive brand identity, increased brand awareness, and reduced the need to coordinate in-house photo shoots, impacting the bottom line.

Collaborated with a co-worker to create an Influencer program. Launched the initiative on Instagram, since this was the main channel that resonated with our target audience. We reviewed hundreds of applicants and selected 30 that resonated with our brand to be the Influencers.

Each Influencer was given a welcome package of Parks Canada merchandise, a discount code for the e-commerce store and an Influencer guideline and contract.

  • Instagram followers increased by 112%

  • 16.8k people who did not follow us were reached from our Influencer feed post

  • Post Engagement and Reach increased on all posts following the campaign

Photographs were used for e-commerce banners and e-blasts.

Using Influencer photographs, I collaborated with our graphic designer to develop a catalogue used for wholesale purposes and business development.
