CAMPAIGN OVERVIEW
NIAAA kicked off 2024 with its Dry January campaign in collaboration with influencers from the Forward Influence community. This Instagram-focused activation uses video-based content and Stories to educate people on the benefits of abstaining from alcohol. Participating creators share free tools from NIAAA’s dedicated Rethinking Drinking website, alongside personal tips and testimonials. This helped interested individuals navigate taking a break from alcohol.
Participating influencers shared their still images and video-based content via Instagram Reels and Stories and then cross-promoted them on their most active secondary platform—Facebook, X, and/or YouTube.
HIGHLIGHTS
- The campaign exceeded the contracted amount of shares by 279.76%.
- All published content combined more than 400,000 engagements on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube.
