IZEA over delivered on all aspects of the campaign, particularly paid media. The two-part content series kept the audience engaged and the campaign’s timing–following the holiday and heading into the “new year, new you” mentality–was excellent.

Although product-focused images are typically favored by brands, including a lifestyle element–like this influencer did–encourages higher engagement. Requesting carousels from influencers allows us to promote images with paid media, appealing to brand requirements while using lifestyle images.

Insights & Learnings


Since the COVID-19 crisis began, an estimated 50% of all US consumers have now grocery-shopped online, a 40% increase over last year. And the shift is likely here to stay, even after quarantines are lifted. eMarketer predicts the COVID-19-led adjustment will “cause a lasting step change” in grocery e-commerce. Shoppers who’d never tried buying groceries online will become more comfortable with the habit. As work life and home life have blurred, people on Pinterest (and beyond) are seeking no-fuss ideas for meals. Last year searches for “quick easy meals for dinner” increased 153% over the previous month.


Influencer strategy is continuously evolving to adapt to platform trends, user preferences, and campaign performance where we analyze data against internal benchmarks and optimize for future Tyson programs. Recipe videos and carousel posts shared across Instagram, Facebook, and Pinterest have been highly effective at inciting user interest and driving traffic to product and digital offer landing pages.

Reaching Parents and Families That Are Looking for Easy Meal Solutions.

Running campaigns across multiple retailers with varied targeting and campaign flights has helped the IZEA and Tyson teams to identify key social user and platform insights to replicate for future efforts. By being creative with platform strategy and analyzing consumer behavior, we have consistently improved KPI performance while delivering campaigns that resonate with audiences.
