2. Analysing consumer insights from real conversations

To drive the campaign, we analyzed the existing conversations in the above communities and observed that:

  • Members were concerned about the possibility of another covid wave.
  • Members shared the precautions they were taking in homes ahead of time to limit surface contamination from airborne particles or from touching surfaces with contaminated hands.

Based on the existing conversations we observed, we aimed at driving the right conversations around the need for disinfection while subtly building in use case testimonials for Urban Company’s Home Disinfection services.

3. Community Marketing campaign idea

We executed a single-phase campaign which focused on generating organic word of mouth for the disinfection services provided by the brand. This was initiated by admins sharing how they ensure that their homes are disinfected and germ-free. They encouraged members to share their ways. Following the discussion, the admins introduced the Urban Company disinfection services and their benefits. They highlighted the importance of disinfecting homes, USPs of taking services from Urban Company, and the benefits they have witnessed. They also encouraged members to try out the services and share their thoughts. They shared their experience with pictures which further brought trust and prompted members to try it.
