  • Meta Ads
  • Social media
  • Content

THE SITUATION

LED performances and circus acts hired for weddings, corporate parties and city events. Demand sits on the event calendar: wedding season and December do the heavy lifting, so the content and the ad calendar had to follow it.

THE PROBLEM

  • An account doing no workIn September 2024: 22 posts, 67 accounts reached in 30 days, four content interactions
  • A bio nobody could searchIt described a company instead of naming a service
  • Seasonal demandWeddings and December drive bookings, and the content did not follow that calendar
  • A product that needs videoAn LED show is hard to describe in a sentence and obvious in four seconds of footage

WHAT WE DID

  • The bioProblemThe bio described a company, not a service.What we didRewritten to lead with the service and the region.
  • Monthly shootsProblem22 posts and almost nothing from real events.What we didA monthly shoot cycle for about two years, taking the account to 128 posts, mostly from real events.
  • Messaging campaignsProblemSomeone planning an event needs to check a date, venue size and price first.What we didMeta campaigns on the messaging objective, so an enquiry starts as a chat.
  • Seasonal creativeProblemDemand peaks in wedding season and December.What we didChristmas sets from November and wedding footage from September.
