WeAre8 calls on Australians to ‘get involved’ in latest campaign
WeAre8 has extended its September launch campaign, encouraging Australians to take up the new social media platform that ‘gives back’.
The campaign features a 30 second spot that explains how WeAre8 is addressing the bigger issues and putting money back into the pockets of users while using rhyming narration.
Rolling out across YouTube and free-to-air TV on Channel 9, the spot will also be supported by an out-of-home campaign.
Sorry but the app is just boring, for all the good it could do, its just not very entertaining or enjoyable.
Quite telling that they are 137th on the app store for social media; people like drama at the end of the day. Its human nature. Look at reality TV, gossip magazines (in days past), or even office banter.
People might say they just want good vibes, but what people say and what people really want are often different. Surely we know that as marketers.
Best of luck to them…
Thanks for your comments, we appreciate your input.
We are an evolving platform that won’t be for everyone and we haven’t set out to be the next Facebook. But what we do aim to be is a safe place in the social media mix that provides optimistic people concerned about the state of the world with an alternative that isn’t going to keep them hooked on an algorithm, and gives them simple tools to make a difference in the world. (trust me they are out there)
Our content strategy and creator content will continue to evolve and grow as the platform matures. But the one thing we know is already working is that a daily dose of positivity that comes from being able to pay it forward to charity partners and in support of climate solutions, by engaging with a brand on your terms goes a long way to keeping people engaged.
Perhaps trial us every day for a month and see how you feel once you have paid it forward to causes like UNICEF, The Great Barrier Reef and the Starlight Foundation or even treated yourself by cashing out the money you have earned from engaging with brands on your terms.
