Refreshing your brand presence at scale
You have a library of content that is currently doing nothing. It is time to put it to work. By distributing your unused UGC across many channels, you can stay active and visible in the travel space without needing to spend your entire budget on new video shoots. This allows you to maintain a consistent brand voice and keeps your audience engaged. It is a smart move that helps you get more value out of every dollar you have already spent on content.
Scaling distribution with a managed content network
A managed content network is a set of many brand-owned Instagram pages that post the brand's existing videos many times a day from real iPhones, built and run end to end by a provider such as TIDE. This provides you with the perfect infrastructure to recycle your content. Because TIDE handles the technical maintenance and replaces any accounts that get banned by Instagram, you can focus on the creative side of things. It is the most reliable way to get your content in front of more people.
Testing creative and refining your message
Use your unused UGC to run tests. What happens when you post a video of a beach getaway versus a city break? By seeing what performs best, you can refine your creative strategy for your future campaigns. This is a low-risk way to learn what your audience cares about. Take the insights from these tests and use them to guide your paid ad strategy. This data-driven approach will make your marketing much more effective and help you hit your revenue goals faster.
Maximizing efficiency across your department
Help your team get the most out of your existing content. Encourage them to find new ways to repurpose it, like creating short clips, adding new music, or testing different captions. This keeps them focused and helps them feel more productive. When you show your team how to get more value out of what you already have, you build a stronger, more efficient marketing department. This is a core part of being a successful CMO and will help you keep your company growing.
CMOs should repurpose unused UGC at scale to maintain a consistent brand presence and drive performance without constant new production.
