WHO
AM I?

Tasos VeliadisI am working in social media marketing for big brands for 6 years in Europe. With my team, weve created more than 500 campaigns for more than 40 Global and local Brands. I am now the Business Unit Director at socialab, a prominent Digital Agency in Greece, and in my free time I like writing about social media strategy and digital strategy.

ARE U READY?

LETS
START!

STOPPP!!!
ONE LITTLE NOT

Maybe Im not the right person to talk about fashion in Greece, but having worked with fashion brands and having created a multitude of online marketing proposals, Id like to recommend three (3) ways, in which fashion brands can be related to social fashionistas.Before I share my views, its important to remember that each and every brand must follow a specific strategy, through the entire year, which peaks with huge activations, when there is a new collection.

NOW WE CAN
START

Below, there three basic pointers as to how fashion brands can relate themselves with social fashionistas through social media in order to increase their awareness and top of mind, as well as their sales.1. Exploit seasonality2. Ask your fans 3. Work harder with blogs

EXPLOIT
SEASONALITY
10
Fashion changes, depending on seasonality. There summer and winter collections. Thats why we have to create seasonal activations, combining offline and online activities.A good and simple example is sharing tickets for fashion shows and events, through your facebook page.You can also broadcast live your events, through your facebook page, and get more attention, not only from consumers, but mainly from fashion bloggers, wholl watch it and write about it. 11
ASK YOUR
FANS
12
We could suggest that all brands ask their fans to every other brand.But, when it comes to womens brands and especially fashion, things are different. All women want whats best for them, based on their taste and the opinion of their friends.So, if you want to activate your fans, all you have to do is watch C&As activation in Brazil. (http://bit.ly/cabrasil) Its a great example on how fans can influence and define sales.

WORK HARDER
WITH BLOGS
14
I know that fashion bloggers are one of the most popular and successful online communities, at least in Greece. Use them to your own benefit, to promote your brand and activations. Occasionally, we see many brands inviting bloggers to their events, or sending them all the new products, as gifts. Try harder! Create full campaigns (thematic), using bloggers who match your brand.Increase your sales by using bloggers as models to your e-shop, in certain categories, or give their name to certain collections.
