“We use Socialbakers to inform our three different content strategies: global, local, and influencer. We’re able to look at the engagement across these buckets, including the different interactions they’re getting. This allows us to recognize local successes and adopt best practices,” said Rachel Bouvier, Senior Digital Analyst, Global Digital, Benefit Cosmetics. “The holistic view Socialbakers provides is invaluable.”

Socialbakers provides a 360-degree view of Benefit’s content channels and how posts in different markets resonate with audiences. It also provides the data-driven insights necessary to calculate the right mix of influencer, organic, and paid content. Socialbakers’ insights also help Benefit take advantage of changes in the influencer marketing space.  “People resonate with real people. Right now, we recognize that things are changing, and we’re adapting to the situation. But I would still say that partnering with people that are part of the beauty community, who have deep relationships with a brand, that’s always going to be there,” said Emily Dybwad, Director of Digital Marketing, Benefit Cosmetics. “For many brands who work with influencers, the nature of partnerships and objectives may shift, but the core promise of influencer marketing shouldn’t.”

“As a global team, we’re able to use Socialbakers to take a step back and look at all of the information that’s coming in across markets to see if there’s a pattern or direction we should pay attention to,” added Dybwad.

“Today’s consumer is digitally grounded and savvy brands like Benefit Cosmetics understand the value of building an engaged and loyal community,” said Yuval Ben-Itzhak, CEO, Socialbakers. “By leveraging the Socialbakers platform, Benefit is able to use data-driven insights to understand which content strategies will provide the greatest reach and engagement with their audiences.”
