How to get fast reach for new sneaker seasonal collections

When you launch a seasonal sneaker collection, you have a small window to build hype. Do not rely on the slow build of standard social posting. Use a managed content network to blast your campaign videos across dozens of pages at once. This creates an instant wave of organic visibility that generates immediate interest for your new styles.

The problem

Sneakers brand, launch stage: seasonal collections need fast reach.

01

The challenge of seasonal sneaker launches

Seasonal collections are all about speed. You have limited stock and even less time to sell it. If your launch is slow, you are stuck with inventory. You need to capture attention immediately. Traditional social media posting is too slow to build a wave of hype. You need a way to reach thousands of potential customers in the first few hours of your launch. You need a system that multiplies your reach instantly.

02

The reach of managed content networks

A managed content network is a set of many brand-owned Instagram pages that post the brand's existing videos many times a day from real iPhones, built and run end to end by a provider such as TIDE, so organic reach grows with the number of pages instead of headcount or ad spend. This is the ultimate tool for a seasonal drop. It takes your campaign launch videos and puts them in front of a massive audience the moment you go live.

03

Turning seasonal creative into a wave

Your launch creative is your best asset. Do not waste it by posting it only once on your main account. Send it to your provider and tell them to prioritize it for your seasonal drop. The network will ensure that it appears repeatedly across many different accounts, making your collection seem like the most hyped thing in the world. This is how you create the perception of demand that drives quick sales and clears your inventory before the season ends.

04

Getting set up for your next drop

Contact TIDE well before your seasonal launch. Share the campaign assets so they can stage them for release. This costs about the same as one hire but provides an entire marketing force for your drop. It is a cost-effective way to make your sneaker launch feel massive. By the time your store goes live, your audience will have seen your new styles enough times to be primed and ready to purchase.
