Olivida is a skincare & beauty brand which provides a wide range of skincare & beauty products together with tailored skincare advice through their beauty salons in various locations in the Netherlands.
Up until now, their e-commerce traffic was mainly based on a combination of Google paid ads & organic SEO.
Adding social media to their marketing mix proved challenging due to low ROAS for Meta paid social, which they assumed was caused by high competition and large enterprises pushing up the cost, making it difficult for SMEs to be profitable with Meta ads.
Adding Influencer Marketing to support their social media strategy and bring down their CPM for Paid Social. By intelligently combining automatic gifting campaigns with a robust affiliate model, Olivida was able to keep costs low while identifying top-performing influencers to maximise ROI. Not only did they achieve a stunning 7.2X ROAS (marketing cost consisted of COGS for gifting, shipping cost & affiliate payments) within their initial campaign, but they were also able to identify 7 top performing influencers who have been welcomed to their Brand Ambassador program for a long term partnership, further increasing ROI.
Adding Influencer Marketing to their overall advertising efforts Olivida was able to reduce their avg. CAC by >150% and taking their recurring business model and high CLTV into account it opened up a path to sustainable growth.
By re-utilising Influencer-generated content for their Meta paid social ads, they were able to increase their Meta ROAS for cold acquisitions from 1.1X to a profitable 2.6X. A significant benefit of influencer marketing is the overall amplification of your other marketing efforts through social proof, for which Olivida’s success is the perfect example.
