How an Australian beauty brand leverages creators to drive retail and conquer new markets
Success story
MCoBeauty is Australia’s leading luxe-for-less, cruelty-free beauty brand. As a retail-led company, most of MCoBeauty’s sales come from the shelves of over 1,000 brick-and-mortar locations throughout Australia and New Zealand. The company prioritizes influencer marketing to support its retail and online sales, and plans to scale its program as it targets expansion into the United States.
The challenge
Finding success at home and abroad
MCoBeauty has enjoyed significant growth in Australia since 2022. And with its plan to conquer new international markets relying so heavily on the influencer marketing team in 2024, MCoBeauty needs to ensure the program keeps clicking on all cylinders.
To get the most out of their influencer marketing efforts, MCoBeauty needs a way to:
- Organize creator content. With such a large creator roster, MCoBeauty needs a simple solution for organizing creator content it can repurpose as retail collateral and on social media, its website, and other marketing channels.
- Simplify the product shipping process. There is just no time to pack boxes by hand and ship products individually when working with 300+ creators.
- Track conversions. MCoBeauty needs a simple solution for staying on top of which creators drive the most value for the brand.
- Report on success. Collecting data is critical to making informed decisions tol help MCoBeauty continue to scale its program and grow its business.
We have invested so much time and effort into getting our [influencer marketing] processes right, and [GRIN] is going to allow us to be able to scale what we’re doing.
