Building Trust with Social Content

As a fledgling video presentation app, our marketing needed to foster brand awareness, establish credibility, and encourage downloads. The LinkedIn post and email below achieve all of this with a value-first strategy that avoids giving off a sales-y vibe.

Goals

Nurture prospects and increase app downloads by providing value to our LinkedIn audience, without asking for a sale.

Approach

Combine benefit-driven copy with eye-catching visuals to get people to stop scrolling and notice the ways our product can help them communicate more effectively on video.

Results

The post exceeded our average engagement on LinkedIn and helped drive increased interest in the app, contributing to new user downloads.
