What I did
I began working with BIM's to bring their social media media presence to life. Shortly after joining them, they opened their North Finchley branch. For this, I created graphics, videos and brought all of their pages back to life. I also chose influencers to support the launch. I chose a range of London-based influencers, some with large followings and some with small followings, with a focus on halal food and vegetarian food. I chose the vegetarian food influencers to diversify their audience, as they were already known for halal food in London and beyond. Through this influencer selection, we generated 275,000+ views and 7,800+ likes, with a long line on the first day. After that, I worked with them to strengthen their marketing and focus on more North Finchley content.
We then planned Ramadan and worked out how to promote their Ramadan Feast meal. I selected London-based halal food influencers to promote the meal, with a larger percentage of those influencers being from East London, due to the close proximity of many of their restaurants. The launch garnered 80,000+ views and 2,800 likes. I also created social media graphics and meme videos to support the launch and to engage their followers throughout Ramadan.
I then focussed on their entire brand and marketing, being given the responsibility from the Managing Director. I began by focussing on the brand as a whole and brought together all of the key elements, in a refined way. From brand story to brand values and overall brand objectives, I held a workshop to bring all departments together, allowing us to focus on the same vision. This included a breakdown of their customer personas and customer journeys, helping all of the teams to understand their customers' behaviour. By doing so, the team felt a lot more aligned and understood the challenges that each department was going through.
I then looked at their limited-time offers, for which they struggled to gain awareness. Therefore, I helped them establish a consistent calendar with enough time to prepare and market each offer, leading to increased interest in their future product launches. In addition, I worked with the team to improve their loyalty scheme, simplifying the concept and rebranding it across the app and in-store. I then worked with them to create a student discount for their customers, establishing the sign-up process and the marketing that would encourage students to register accordingly. After doing that, I focussed on the development of their brand mascot, exploring aspects of their brand and brand story that would be a natural fit. Following on from that, I helped them plan their kids' party offering. Finally, I established a full marketing calendar for them, allowing them to cover all channels when thinking about marketing new and existing items. This included a toy calendar for their kids' meals, a limited-time-only product calendar and a window marketing calendar, amongst other areas of their marketing.
I created email content to be sent out for new product launches, working to create the most engaging design.
