Overview

The campaign for L’Oréal Luxe focused on Trend Hacking, specifically aimed at creating an influencer campaign requiring rapid execution to maximize impact on TikTok. The project promoted multiple products across diverse categories, including makeup, skincare, and fragrances, for nine different brands. The overall objective was to leverage real-time engagement and maximize content visibility by tailoring the program to day-to-day trends and community preferences.

Challenge

The fundamental challenge in trend-based campaigns is the need for rapid execution–leveraging engagement before the trend fades. L’Oréal Luxe required a maximum impact strategy across nine different brands and diverse product categories (makeup, skincare, fragrances). This demanded exceptional agility in content creation and optimization. The team needed to ensure content authenticity by tailoring the program to community preferences, all while utilizing advanced SEO and TikTok tools to enhance visibility and surpass ambitious performance KPIs like a $50 CPM.

Solution

Sundae Creative’s solution was a highly optimized, always-on social media listening program integrated with a highly efficient production workflow. The key tactic was a rapid turnaround time of just four days from content creation to posting, ensuring the content was timely and relevant. The agency leveraged influencer partnerships and specifically optimized video performance by using:

  • Cutting-edge search engine optimization techniques

The campaign was notable for its fast execution across diverse product categories like makeup, skincare, and fragrances.
