Who better to speak to the merits of a company's product or services than its customer base? Consumers trust the opinions of other customers.
Whether in the form of testimonials or posted reviews, user-generated content (UGC) is powerful messaging that serves brands well, especially when connected to a specific campaign.
The more authentic and inspirational that customer endorsement is, the greater its impact.
But that doesn't mean you can't have some professional assistance to refine the messaging. After all, selfie videos of real customers can be limited in their storytelling potential.
But if you can tap into UGC messaging with a professional-looking video that humanizes your brand, the more effective your ongoing marketing efforts will be.
Take a look at our recent TikTok spots for Chevrolet.
Our work features a seamless integration of commercial advertising and testimonial content. Gear Seven incorporates authentic interviews and music with just enough company branding to link it to Chevrolet's song contest.
Chevrolet pickup trucks are synonymous with country music. Highlighting that connection by sponsoring an original song contest was a natural fit.
What would the second verse of a song called "My Kinda Truck" sound like? The winning entry would be invited to perform at CMA Fest in Nashville. Chevrolet invited UGC content from across the country by teaming up with established contemporary country star Breland to launch the contest.
The winning entry was invited to perform at CMA Fest in Nashville. And that's where Gear Seven jumped in to fill in the visuals, document the contest, and package everything up nicely!
