Final Thoughts
Overall, the campaign performed exceedingly well with impressions and reached top-performing tiers. Influencer marketing holds many progressive benefits that outweigh data alone, however, these figures are incredibly impressive and show a high interest in the PAW Patrol brand. The content creators did an amazing job showcasing the missions and products and bringing together a sense of family excitement for the launch through authentic content they produced. Not only do you see this within the reach and engagement but also in the sentiment of each post that directly correlated with an increase of PAW Patrol sales.
The highly successful campaign delivered nearly 10 million impressions and 580K+ engagements as well as gave Walmart an ownable program that helped to capture 84% of PAW Patrol business during this timeframe and drove a 16% increase of core PAW Patrol sales.
