Challenge

Whilst Merlin Network was a known entity in the music industry, many didn’t specifically know who they were, or what they did. Our role was to change that – to create a strategic, engaging social presence that articulated who Merlin is, what they offer and how they support their international members and partners.

Solution

We collaborated with Merlin to refine content pillars, spotlighting members and partners with sleek, social-first video content. A subtle brand evolution and custom templates ensured a cohesive feel across channels. Through features like Member Music Friday and member spotlights, we celebrated Merlin's global diversity and values. The partnership boosted awareness, sentiment, and engagement, solidifying Merlin as the leading digital music licensing partner for independents.

Result

Our partnership with Merlin delivered impressive outcomes, firmly establishing its brand presence across social channels. The tailored, engaging content strategy drove a remarkable 43% audience growth, while our social-first approach boosted engagement by 51%. These results not only enhanced Merlin’s visibility but also reinforced its reputation as the leading international digital music licensing partner for independents.

Challenge

The Indomie team approached us with the goal of significantly amplifying their brand awareness and boosting audience engagement in the UK. They wanted to ensure that their organic social media presence not only showcased their incredible products but did so in a way that was visually enticing, social-first and on brand, creating new Indomie fans in the process.

Solution

To broaden Indomie’s appeal, we presented the brand as a quick, delicious solution for busy cooks, emphasising feelings over product features. Nostalgia played a key role, inspiring vibrant, retro-futuristic packaging and playful, surreal visuals for social media. Campaigns aligned with UK seasons, from summer to Christmas, blending recipes, Reels, and memes. By lightening the tone and experimenting with bold concepts like noodle ice lollies, we authentically connected with the audience.

Result

271% increase in followers 199% increase in engagement Our partnership with Indomie has been transformative, driving a strong social media presence with sleek, results-focused content. Campaigns attracted influencer interest, sparking collaborations on inventive recipes. Indomie now stands out in the competitive noodle market, appealing to a broader audience with its irresistible blend of flavour and convenience, cementing its position as a go-to choice for quick, delicious meals.

Challenge

ZAGG came to us with tired social channels in need of some social-first love and TLC. Their in-house team couldn’t keep up with the content demand, so they sought our creative expertise to create thumb-stopping, engaging and innovative organic social content that showcased their incredible products and engaged audiences.

Solution

We delved into ZAGG’s brand identity, USP, target market, and competitors. Noticing rivals focused on extreme aesthetics and adventure, we found a niche: the everyday user. From fashionistas to busy mums and mountain bikers, we showcased ZAGG’s broad appeal, highlighting its unmatched tech protection for all lifestyles.

Result

Our work with ZAGG has been a success, delivering visually stunning, relatable, social-first content. The fresh and approachable vibe we brought to their social media has driven significant organic growth and strengthened brand loyalty. By resonating with a wide audience, ZAGG has carved out a standout position in a crowded market, appealing to everyday users with products that genuinely protect their valuable tech.

Our Own Brand are one of the most exciting social media agencies that I’ve discovered – pushing the boundaries of what amazing looks like. The OOB team bring a refreshingly creative & strategic lens to any project thinking about the campaign goals as the starting point. This means our campaigns are delivered focused on commercial effectiveness not just marketing metrics. There is a brilliant team across the OOB business with deep channel expertise and marketing awareness. When we have our calls or meetings it feels like we can have real conversations with a partner who gets us. I appreciate their proactivity in coming to us with new thoughts, ideas and insights to keep our business moving forward.
