Pop Pays has really helped me manage and execute our influencer campaigns. It allows for a super streamlined process which is vital, especially with larger influencer campaigns. I love how Pop Pays shows exactly where in the process of content creation our influencers are in (due dates, edits requested, approval, etc.) which makes it very easy to track the development of a project and keep the campaign on track.

Challenge

Influencers are a staple of LesserEvils awareness strategy.  Having seen success leveraging influencers for awareness, LesserEvil was interested in understanding if influencers could also help drive conversions for their brand on Instagram.  LesserEvil uses Shopify as their CMS and needed a way to attribute purchases on their website back to the influencers selected for their conversion campaigns.

Solution

LesserEvil already relies on the Popular Pays platform for their influencer management solution to source, organize, and track their influencer relationships. As the clean snack brand expanded their strategy to conversion based goals, Pop Pays was able to support their efforts with their new Shopify integration. The Pop Pays Shopify integration allows LesserEvil to assign discount tracking codes to their selected influencers and accurately track the success of their investment.

To Evaluate Performance

With the right tracking infrastructure in place, LesserEvil can evaluate campaigns side by side to understand which strategies render the best outcome, which influencers perform the best, and if conversion based campaigns are a viable tactic for their brand moving forward.

By running these Shopify campaigns, it has allowed us to track any sales that are occurring from the influencers we are working with. Since we’re working with influencers we’ve built relationships with & find to be authentic, we’ve noticed that sales are being generated especially when it’s coming from a source our customers know and trust.”
