Kids Brand Store is an authorized reseller of several leading fashion brands, with a wide offering of products for children and teenagers alike. With teenagers as your target audience, staying up-to-date with the latest social media trends is crucial to create real engagement. As such, the brand prioritises having a strong social media presence, and capitalising on content created by their community was a logical next step for the business.
Before using Flowbox, finding relevant images was quite a challenge. The visual content used for marketing was for the most part images acquired from each supplier. In many cases, the images weren’t suitable for the company’s special target group – teenagers. Hence, involving influencers and customers in the process was a natural next step.
“The authenticity of User Generated Content is something we can’t achieve with studio produced images. Our customers know better than us how to style our products to create a look that’s up-to-date and their images resonate well with other kids of the same age. Today, it’s only when we launch contests and special campaigns that we use studio images but we always archive them afterwards.”

Since implementing Flowbox, the visual marketing process has been simpler and more efficient than it was before. The time spent searching for quality images has been reduced significantly, and through Flowbox, Kids Brand Store can now also generate sales through their social content.
“In Flowbox Moderate, we can gather all of our photos in one place and use tags to filter them, it saves us a lot of time. It’s easy to get an overview of our content and we can also tag the products in each photo to drive conversions which is something we couldn’t do before Flowbox.”

For Kids Brand Store, getting their customers to start posting and tagging photos in social media isn’t particularly difficult; in fact, it is quite the contrary.
“Initially, we gave out gift cards to some of the people who tagged us to encourage them to keep posting, but we get so much content now that we don’t really have to do that anymore.”

By tracking the key metrics in Flowbox Insights, Kids Brand Store can make better decisions on how to optimize their visual marketing strategy. After using UGC as a part of the marketing, both sales and engagement has increased. The average order value in Flowbox is 200% higher than for purchases made directly on the site, and the conversion rate has also increased.
“When we use UGC, the order value is much higher. The kids often get inspired by a photo they see but instead of just purchasing one item, they buy the whole look. The engagement is also much better when we use Flowbox compared to when we post general studio photos, because UGC is more trustworthy. Often, the images that generate the most engagement aren’t those with the best photo quality, but the ones that are genuine and real.”

Since UGC has performed so well on the website and organically in social media, Kids Brand Store has now started to use customer and influencer photos in their social media ads too, with positive results.
“We did a test with a product that was basically dead and didn’t sell anymore. By using a piece of UGC we revived the product and managed to sell over 4000 pieces of that garment. We got a 13.8% higher conversion rate with that ad compared to some of our branded ads.”
