Leveraging Proprietary Data For Storytelling

The challenge

AI-powered earned analytics platform, WeArisma, wanted to elevate awareness of both its brand and its influencer-discovery product within luxury markets, including fashion, travel and beauty. The ambition was to position the company as an essential partner for brands looking to supercharge their influencer marketing strategies through data-driven insight.

The approach

WeArisma’s platform holds a huge amount of data on what influencers, celebrities and the press are talking about on social media, and how that content is being engaged with. The Flywheelers identified this as an opportunity for creative data storytelling.

By monitoring the media and harnessing WeArisma’s internal data, The Flywheelers identified relevant trends, events and cultural moments across fashion, beauty, luxury and marketing. They turned these insights into timely press releases, weaving narratives from the platform’s data. Combined with commentary from WeArisma CEO Jenny Tsai on how brands and influential sources drive trends, the team created a series of stories that received strong pick-up in relevant media.

Over seven months, The Flywheelers produced a series of topical, timely stories. These included a focus on luxury fashion moments on several red carpets; an analysis of the added value of social media conversation for Super Bowl advertisers; a dive into influencers’ favourite winter sun destinations; an examination of the brands dominating the glass skin trend; and an exploration of the role of influencers in the rise of tenniscore fashion.

The impact

Using a forensic media relations approach, the team secured 48 pieces of coverage for nine data stories. Collectively, these stories generated a potential reach of almost 776 million, with 13 backlinks driving authority and organic visibility to the WeArisma website.

A standout story was an examination of the tenniscore fashion trend following the release of the movie Challengers, starring actress of the moment, Zendaya. In the run-up to Wimbledon, The Flywheelers saw preppy, tennis-inspired fashion becoming prevalent on social media and capitalised on this ahead of the tennis event of the year by using WeArisma’s data to analyse the brands dominating the trend and how their use of influencers contributed to this. This generated nine pieces of coverage, including Vogue Business, a Fashion Network syndication and Harper’s Bazaar France.
