The Plan

Strong focus on reactive opportunities to gain a diverse range of publications.
Utilise additional experts in niche sectors like Feng Shui to give a unique spin on our ideas.
Gain ‘as seen on’ links from a combination of global publications, specifically targeting high authority & relevant publications.
Combine our reactive / HARO opportunities with a data-led campaign to widen our audience further.

Ideation

We had previously seen a lot of success using external experts in different niches and wanted to use a similar technique with BDO. Feng Shui is a popular technique that has lots of trending hashtags and is spoken about regularly online, particularly around the start of the year during Spring Cleaning season – this was the ideal tie in to office furniture organisation.

Regularly reviewing HARO and other journalist request platforms allowed us to pinpoint opportunities that fit perfectly to position BDO as an expert.Some of these included office furniture for under $200 and how to choose the right ergonomic chair.

We also wanted to supplement our campaign with a big data led piece and found some existing content on the BDO website targeting universities. This was a new audience that we had not yet tapped into, that held some exciting potential.

Data Collection

For our data-led piece, we used a manual approach to identify the most picturesque universities in Australia.

To do this, we went to to the depths of Instagram using hashtags like #universityof__ to see which Australian campus reigned victorious based on post engagement such as likes and comments. This allowed us to see a vast range of campuses and imagery, giving a true balanced approach to our manual data collection.

For our reactive Feng Shui piece, we got in touch with an expert that we had already built a relationship with and put together a series of questions for them to answer. This allowed us to gain an in-depth answer to provide journalists with as much detail as they needed for their stories.

Media List Building & Outreach

The media list is one of the most important parts of the process and can make or break a successful digital PR campaign.

We utilised a series of existing relationships, and used our database, to reach out to new journalists in the industry that may be interested in this topic.

We built our media lists across multiple global and national publications and sent out personalised campaign sends for each.

This enabled us to secure high-authority press coverage that linked back to the client.
