#FoodTok Whitespace
TikTok has established itself as the source of viral food trends, responsible for selling out ingredients during recipe frenzies. The online grocery delivery space is highly competitive and Voilà was the new kid on the block. How could Voilà use data in a first-to-market way to break through and drive acquisitions?
Creating a Social Predictive Tool
By predicting recipe trends before they take off, we could intercept viral food culture moments to acquire new customers, with a first-mover advantage. So, we built a bespoke Trend Index, a predictive tool that predicts recipes and ingredients with ‘trend energy’.
Shrinking the Distance between Brand & Buy
The key growth audience was Millennials and older Gen Zs in metro areas, familiar with delivery services, but maybe not aware of Voilà. We served them trending recipe videos that clicked to pre-loaded recipe carts, making it easy to try recipes they’d just salivated over, drastically shortening the path-to-purchase from inspiration to immediate check-out.
Through activating on trends right as they hit critical mass with our network of foodies and content creators, our creative and data-driven approach leaned in to TikTok’s #MadeMeBuyIt behaviour and made Voilà the first grocery delivery brand to tap into TikTok’s viral commerce in this way. We further amplified the campaign via Instagram, Facebook, and CRM.
Breaking Through the Competition
An innovative social-first campaign from inception to execution, Trending 2 Table successfully turned social media trends into trials. By taking a thoughtful insight-driven approach using social data, we were able to drive both reach and acquisitions with our paid social content and break through amongst our more established competitors.
- 8x increase in Voilà orders
- 11x increase in new Voilà customers
- 200%+ higher clickthrough rate
Trending 2 Table has been Voilà’s top social conversion-driver, turning complex data into dinners, just like that.
