Their products give immediate results in boosting skin metabolism, removing impurities, nourishing, moisturizing, hydrating, and brightening skin, and leaving an even skin tone.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #7a7a7a;\">Compared to other skincare brands, TAKAMI keep a low profile. In recent years, consumers have often preferred smaller brands, offering a personalized and convenient online shopping experience. The changes in these consumer preferences indicate that they are no longer interested in mass-market selling tactics.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #7a7a7a;\">Since TAKAMI is a Japanese brand with a conservative mindset, when it comes to brand promotion and communication, they encountered difficulties in increasing brand awareness when targeting the Hong Kong market. Many customers in Hong Kong perceive the brand image of TAKAMI as indistinct and undefined. So, how would one build up content strategies to increase their customer base? How should brand communication be conveyed via messages? These are some of the challenges that TAKAMI experienced and we, at DSIGN, tried to tackle them.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 50px;\"> <\/p> \r\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ef1028;\">1. Set Up a Content Center<\/span><\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"color: #7a7a7a;\">The skincare industry has constantly evolved. People tend to pay more attention to individual needs and self-satisfaction, in which their interests are driven by the latest and hottest trends. Therefore, to increase brand awareness, it is vital to keep pace with the trends and make noise. In response to that, DSIGN and TAKAMI established a Content Center.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #7a7a7a;\">Our content calendar, which dictates our content release cycle is usually brainstormed on a monthly basis. DSIGN is responsible for producing design materials and executing them on time. At the end of the month, we conduct a performance review and report. The entire process enables us to understand clients\u2019 needs easily and revise the content quickly based on their feedback.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #7a7a7a;\">However, getting customers to \u201clike\u201d your page can be difficult, especially when the product is new to the market. Starting from scratch, we first analyzed TAKAMI\u2019s background and products. The study helped us generate a Content Plan specifically for the Hong Kong market. We picked the &#8220;little blue bottle\u201d as our core product and designed a specific style for TAKAMI\u2019s promotional materials, which encapsulated the ideas of light, tender and comfort.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 50px;\"> <\/p> \r\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ef1028;\">2. Provide Online Value And Service<\/span><\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"color: #7a7a7a;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether it\u2019s online and offline, excellent customer service is the key to success. According to a study from<\/span><a style=\"color: #7a7a7a;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/facebook-is-the-top-tool-for-customer-service-say-consumers-7000031352\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Accent Marketing<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, more than 82% of consumers expect excelle<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #7a7a7a;\">nt customer service on Facebook, more than any other social media platform.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #7a7a7a;\">Therefore, we insisted on the \u201ctwelve-hour response principle\u201d. This included providing services with added value to our online customers via informative dialogue, responsive customer services, and feedback in a timely manner.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #7a7a7a;\">Building up a good relationship with our customers would also help to raise word-of-mouth.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 50px;\"> <\/p> \r\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ef1028;\">3. Increase Engagement<\/span><\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #7a7a7a;\">You might wonder: How do you make the most out of content and let more people engage with it?\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #7a7a7a;\">In 2018, Facebook announced that \u201cmeaningful engagement\u201d is used as an important metric to prioritize posts. In other words, posts with active and thoughtful interactions will get greater influence and exposure.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #7a7a7a;\">We are aware of this, but how do we increase engagement? Giveaways can sometimes be a good idea.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #7a7a7a;\">A product would be selected as a giveaway every month. We see this as an opportunity to engage with our customers. On top of that, we asked them questions, started a discussion, and conducted simple polls via our posts. From there, their responses inform us of TAKAMI\u2019s pain points.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #7a7a7a;\">What\u2019s more? Direct messages, replies, and story interactions all count towards engagement numbers. Seeing that as important factors, we began to implement exciting content into instant stories in a timely manner.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 50px;\"> <\/p> \r\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ef1028;\">4. Design a Landing Page<\/span><\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #7a7a7a;\">The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak has caused an increasing number of brick-and-mortar stores to close down, making digital transformation inevitable. Retailers are now dealing with well-educated customers, making it easier for brands to go digital.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #7a7a7a;\">In response to the market change, DSIGN team designed a landing page, a one-page website that brings visitors towards a single action. It aims to connect both social media campaigns and online stores as well as drive sales. From there, we generated a database, enabling us to keep track of visitors\u2019 activities and collect valuable data. Moreover, by linking social media campaigns to the page, it generated organic leads and converted leads into sales and subscribers.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 50px;\"> <\/p> \r\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ef1028;\">Conclusion<\/span><\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #7a7a7a;\">With those actions taken, we have successfully quadrupled the number of Instagram followers and improved Facebook engagement by 50%.<\/span>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #7a7a7a;\">At last, let us at DSIGN share 3 takeaways inspired by TAKAMI:<\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><span style=\"color: #7a7a7a;\"><span style=\"color: #7a7a7a;\"><span style=\"color: #7a7a7a;\"><b>TA- Target Audience: <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We are targeting every individual who might be interested in our products.
