Project Description

Brand Recognition through Viral Videos

Client: Dr. Bradley Nelson
Project: 60-day social media campaign to generate viral-video status

Dr. Bradley Nelson is the creator of the innovative healing modalities known as The Emotion Code and The Body Code. He is a best-selling author, lecturer and healer whose mission is to make healing easy and accessible for all. Dr. Brad and his team brought Wasabi Publicity on board to get the word out on his latest work to his social media fan base through the creation of viral videos.

Reviving Engagement

When we began the campaign we noticed that, even though Dr. Brad and his team had a sizeable social media following, the fans were largely not engaging with his pages. Wasabi’s social media team got to work to reengage the fans by repurposing content from Dr. Brad’s book and other materials, creating branded images to promote the call-to-action link and free offer, sourcing and sharing relevant inspirational quotes, and sharing content and images from other communities with large audiences and engagement.

Content Creation

At the same time, Wasabi sent out a full camera crew and captured more than 30 short clips of Dr. Brad and his colleague Connie Barton for their team’s informational and promotional use. Designed to pique the interest of social media users, the videos were shot at around one minute in length including the call to action at the end.
