Success stories
Absolut Vodka
The brief
Humanz orchestrated 2 creator-led campaigns with Absolut Vodka to introduce their 2020-2021 Passionfruit and Watermelon variants to the South African market. Creators were gifted with beautifully designed boxes to create cocktails with the new variants, blending authentic storytelling with luxury experiences.
Our strategic approach turned influential voices into passionate brand advocates and resulted in engagement rates and sales that far exceeded the expectations for the campaign.

Wrap-up
The campaign’s success lay in its approach of getting new and creative influencers to be a part of this campaign, which carried the brand’s messaging well and resonated with the correct target audience. Having beautiful packaging to work with also added to the vibrant content that was created for the campaign to be in-sync with the brand messaging. The launch event, in collaboration with Candice Modiselle, Maisha Mamabolo, and Koketso Chipane as the faces of the campaign brought the product launch full circle. They created content for the campaign and were a part of the entire launch, establishing a strong presence across South African social media.
