Airback is not just another backpack; it’s the first of its kind with a built-in compression compartment. This unique feature allows users to pack up to 50% more than a standard backpack, making it a game-changer in the travel and lifestyle space. With a product so innovative, we knew that a traditional marketing approach wouldn’t do it justice. We needed something bigger—something viral.
To reach our target audience, we focused on the platforms where they spent the most time—Instagram and TikTok. These platforms are known for their potential to create viral content, especially among younger demographics who are always on the lookout for innovative products. Additionally, we recognized the power of YouTube for more detailed content and long-term engagement.
The core of our strategy was to create content that was not only engaging but also highly shareable. We understood that for content to go viral, it needed to evoke strong emotions—whether that’s awe, surprise, or excitement. Our creative team at Mind for Business crafted visually pleasing and highly relatable videos that showcased the unique features of Airback in a subtle and casual way.
For instance, one of our most successful videos was a very smooth ASMR video which shows how much you can pack with Airback while being stimulated with both visuals and sound. This video alone garnered over 100 million views, rapidly boosting Airback’s visibility.
We partnered with influencers who resonated with our brand’s ethos—those who were not just popular, but who genuinely connected with their audiences. By collaborating with travel vloggers, fitness enthusiasts, and lifestyle bloggers, we were able to tap into their follower base and expand Airback’s reach organically.
While organic reach was crucial, we didn’t stop there. We supercharged our viral strategy with targeted paid advertising. By using data-driven insights, we tailored ads to specific demographics, ensuring that we reached potential customers who were most likely to engage with the content and convert. This approach significantly boosted our sales and completed the ecommerce strategy to become omnipresent.
Once our viral strategy was in place, the next step was all about execution. We meticulously planned and produced engaging content that showcased the unique features of the Airback backpack, focusing on its built-in compression compartment—the first of its kind. By leveraging trending topics and challenges on Instagram and TikTok, we ensured that each piece of content had the potential to go viral. Collaborations with influencers and targeted paid advertising further amplified our reach, turning Airback into a must-have item within the travel community.
Within six months, Airback’s Instagram account skyrocketed to 1 million followers. The platform became a hub for user-generated content, with customers sharing their experiences and creative ways of using the Airback. This user-driven content not only reinforced the brand’s credibility but also fueled further growth.
On TikTok, where short, snappy videos reign supreme, Airback quickly gained traction. The account grew to 400,000 followers, with several videos crossing the million-view mark. Meanwhile, our YouTube channel surpassed 100,000 subscribers, becoming a go-to source for in-depth reviews, packing tips, and lifestyle content centered around Airback.
The viral success on social media translated directly into sales. The combination of organic reach, influencer partnerships, and paid advertising made Airback a global sensation in the travel bag market. We saw a significant spike in orders from all corners of the world, solidifying Airback’s position as a leader in its niche.
