TL;DR

With brands clamoring for attention on social platforms, getting your brand noticed can feel like an uphill battle. This article looks at the key factors behind successful social media campaigns and highlights top examples to inspire your social media strategy.

Today’s consumers spend an average of 2.5 hours every day on social media, and approximately 5.42 billion of us use these platforms.

Social media platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn and Instagram have dramatically changed how businesses connect with their ideal audiences in this century—so much so that social media advertising is now the top source of brand awareness for people between the ages of 16 to 34. Billions.

At Superside, we specialize in large-scale social media campaigns for enterprises. Partner with us, and you’ll benefit from various design services and sleek workflows as we become your creative team’s creative team.

Want to know how top brands scale their campaigns while keeping the ads entertaining, compelling and, of course, converting?

Let’s explore a few famous social media campaigns, what makes them successful, and the best ideas to draw on this year.

How social media campaigns become successful

The world’s top social media campaigns are best known for:

  • Reaching large audiences
  • Engaging customers
  • Building brand awareness
  • Driving website traffic
  • And fostering brand loyalty

Plus, many of them are more cost-effective than traditional marketing strategies.

Although there's no formula for a perfect social media campaign, we can ensure one thing: the most effective marketing campaigns involve coordinated efforts across multiple platforms to promote a brand message, product or service.

This approach is supported by about 60% of B2B marketers, who believe well-executed omnichannel social campaigns are particularly successful in generating revenue.

But, how are they successful? They have the perfect creative partner to strategize, design and scale campaigns at ease.

At Superside, our most effective social media campaigns include these essential elements:

  • Well-defined business goals and KPIs
  • Deep target audience understanding
  • Engaging, high-quality and shareable content
  • Consistent branding, messaging and visuals
  • Platform-specific strategy and optimization
  • Active community engagement and positive interactions
  • Effective use of influencers and partnerships
  • A balance of organic and paid promotion
  • Data tracking, social media analytics and continuous optimization
  • A/B testing to refine content and strategy
  • Adaptability to audience feedback and platform changes

Here’s a great example of our approach:

Oyster, a global talent management company, outsourced creative work to Superside to enhance their social media presence.

We converted static content into engaging social media animations using Figma templates, reducing production time by 57% and saving our happy customers over 10K in production time.

Our creatives also delivered static and animated assets—some in just 36 hours—to enhance Reddit’s year-end “Recap” campaign, boosting brand awareness and success across platforms.

This collaboration exemplifies how enterprises can benefit from outsourced creative services to maintain brand consistency and meet escalating creative needs.​

Types of social campaigns

The various types of social media campaigns can achieve different results. Choose from these six types based on your marketing and broader business goals:

1. Awareness social media campaigns

These campaigns enhance brand visibility and recognition by fostering positive associations and targeting a wide audience without focusing on immediate sales.

The Getty Museum Challenge multiplied brand awareness during Covid-19 by shifting engagement online. Participants recreated favorite artworks using household items. This campaign resulted in creative displays that entertained and promoted the museum to a broader audience.

2. Conversion social media campaigns

Conversion campaigns aim to boost sales and revenue by turning leads into conversions through CTAs, discounts and limited offers on social media platforms. These campaigns work best when targeting warmed-up audiences, such as engaged followers and existing customers.

Kins, a physical therapy business, partnered with Superside to enhance its brand and social media presence. The collaboration resulted in an impressive 200% increase in click-through rates (CTRs) and a significant rise in on-site conversions.

3. AI-enhanced social media campaigns

An AI-powered social campaign can enhance content creation, audience targeting and engagement through automation and predictive analytics. AI tools can optimize tasks like scheduling, ad performance, sentiment analysis and chatbots for improved reach and enhanced results.

OPA!, a food gifting brand, teamed up with Superside to transform its brand using our AI-enhanced creative services. This collaboration tripled OPA!’s social media assets, significantly boosting its social media presence, brand awareness and engagement.

4. Influencer social media marketing campaigns

Influencer marketing uses individuals with super-engaged communities to promote products or services. These influencers encourage their followers to make purchases based on their credibility.

The target audience includes the influencer’s social media followers and online communities, often within niches like beauty, fitness, tech or gaming.

Häagen-Dazs famously partners with various influencers, from actors to star athletes, to create sponsored TikToks that showcase the brand’s fun, family-friendly personality.

5. Engagement-based social media campaigns

Brands typically run engagement campaigns to boost interactions with their ideal audience through likes, comments, shares and views. They aim to build community and loyalty while attracting other potential followers.

For the 2023 Barbie movie, Barbie launched an AI-powered selfie generator, and users could create personalized posters and share them on social media. This well-timed campaign went viral, driving brand awareness—and feet into cinemas.

6. Interactive social media campaigns

Interactive social campaigns are designed to drive visitors to websites or landing pages through targeted posts, ads and content that prompt users to click and visit the site instead of just engaging with content on the social media platform.

Airbnb’s “#LiveThere” campaign effectively increased platform traffic by highlighting authentic local experiences instead of traditional tourism. It encouraged users to share their travel stories on social media with the hashtag #LiveThere, significantly boosting traffic to Airbnb’s platform.

Enterprise Graphic Design RFP Best Practices (Checklist Included)

For enterprise and mid-market businesses looking to enhance their creative capabilities and scale overall capacity, issuing graphic design RFPs are an essential part of the formalized procurement process for agencies, contractors and other external partners.RFPs create a structured, transparent framework for assessing and comparing service proposals from different outsourced creative partners.As an internal stakeholder, your opening role is to lay out your creative needs and timelines, communicating efficiently to prospective partners exactly what you’re looking for in a business relationship.In turn, these prospective creative service partners are asked to put their best feet forward demonstrating why their capabilities, capacity, skills, tools and scale are the best fit.On average, respondents spend around 30 hours of writing time developing their proposals. While it varies, you can expect to put just as much time into writing your RFP, evaluating the responses, communicating with procurement and selecting the winner of your work and budget.
