Dissecting Social Media Strategy:
Social media has been the most prominent and significant virtual space for the internet not only to be used for social networking but also to promote the brand and products digitally. The impact of social media is praiseworthy, leading companies to open their way on the busy market. Brands are trying to label social media, but few are effective. One brand that has successfully done so in Oyo.
Instead of sticking to one social media platform, Oyo is pervasive and has captured Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook, amongst other social media platforms. However, the content streamed on the various social media platforms is a little different from each other. Throughout their social media platforms, the theme remains similar. One of promoting touristic places, time with your loved ones, and affordable safe accommodations.
A look at their Instagram showcases their strong humor and topical memes to attract viewers, all while displaying their range of accommodations available all across the country and more. But Oyo doesn’t stop there, when it isn’t showing off its good meme game it’s busy making clever pop-culture comparisons or jumps on the new trends.
Their Instagram strategy also covers influencer marketing as well. Oyo is known to work with influencers involved in the Travel & Tourism industry. Through posts or re-posts, Oyo manages to show the beauty of the different places while being subtle about their own promotions.
Another unique tactic that Oyo ploys are using Instagram highlights to their advantage. To demonstrate their geographical footprint and capabilities they use the Highlights feature. These Instagram stories are a combination of domestic and foreign and helps viewers in learning more about the company.
