TIM | Campaign checklist Step 1 - Think of your goals

ü  What is the most important goal for this

campaign? •  Brand awareness •  Target a new audience •  Social boost •  Content marketing •  Conversion •  Lead generation •  Inspiration

ü  What is the most important message you want to spread?

ü  Who’s your preferred target audience? •  Age •  Gender •  Location •  Topics interested in

Step 2 - Let’s get creative

The sky is the limit! Create a concept that matches your message, goal and addresses your target audience, but leave some space for the influencers to create their own REAL content out of it.   Examples: Create an experience, think of original hashtags, organize an event, start a challenge, send your product to influencers so they can create their own content with it, organize a contest, involve influencers on a larger campaign you’ll run as well on other channels, or keep it really simple and just ask influencers to spread the story of your brand in their own way.

Step 3 - Don’t forget the details ü  Choose the reward for the influencers

•  Financial reward •  They can pitch their own preferred reward or you can

offer a flat fee. •  Barter reward

•  Are there free products you can offer them? Or can you reward them in another way? Give them extra exposure or invite them for an invent/experience for example.

ü  Choose the preferred form of content & social channels •  Form of content: text/video/pictures •  Choose social channels: Blog/YouTube/Facebook/Instagram/

Snapchat,/Twitter/Pinterest/Linkedin etc.

ü  You can also choose to give the influencers total creative freedom to choose their form of content & social channels for this campaign.

ü  Think of the terms per publication and/or channel •  Is there a specific message/URL/Discount code/Brand name you

want the influencers to communicatie? •  Is there a specific hashtag you want them to use? Should they tag a

page/account? Or mention something specific in the description? •  Are you ok with them being transparent about the fact this is a

collaboration? And in what way? (#spon for example)

ü  Deadlines •  Review deadline (optional)

•  Do you want to review the content before publication? And when? How much time do you need to give feedback?

•  Publication deadline •  When should the publications be published?Doesn’t

matter/ a specific day/timeframe? •  Evaluation deadline (optional)

•  What statistics do you want to have insight in? Views/engagement/ amount of time on the page/unique visitors etc.

•  How and when do you want to get these statistics?
