Besides being a relatively new brand, SOYJOY also have to deliver new communication message that have not been acknowledged by public (Low Glycemic Index). Due to these two reasons, SOYJOY decided to use integrated online marketing channel various from website, Facebook to Twitter.
In building awareness on the online presence of Soyjoy, the applied content strategy was

After three months, the buzz of this campaign was so clear, as proven with thousands browsing on “soyjoy healthylicious’ in Google, as well comments from people either through Facebook or twitter about the event, not to mention many people who were inspired by this program to live healthy. This was indications showing that this program was successful.
A brand should be selective in choosing its online agency. Online agency should be able to offer clear and innovative concept strategy as well to read the future need of the brand. In my opinion, Virtual Consulting has all the qualifications needed by brand.
