ButcherBox launched its “Let’s Fix Dinner” campaign in June, with a video series that can be seen on the brand’s YouTube channel and Instagram page. ButcherBox tapped six mom influencers for the series: Nicki Maher, digital creator and storyteller; Natasha D’Anna, creator, designer and author of Mom’s Choice Award-winning book “Any Two can be Delicious;” Christine Koh, author and co-host of the “Edit Your Life” podcast; Meaghan Murphy, author of “Your Fully Charged Life” and co-host of the “Off the Gram” podcast, Krystian Mitryk, digital creator and storyteller; and Cassie Shortsleeve, journalist, founder of Dear Sunday Motherhood and co-founder of Chamber of Mothers, a collective for mothers’ rights.

Crowe declined to disclose how much of the brand’s advertising budget was allocated to the social media influencers.

Through this campaign, ButcherBox wanted to represent what mealtime looks like in a variety of different homes and families, while also being deliberate about which influencers the brand picked based on their different areas of expertise, Crowe said. “Each influencer offered varying perspectives which has led to an amazing culmination of stories, advice and relatable anecdotes,” she said.

ButcherBox has relied heavily on affiliate marketing for the last seven years in an effort to promote awareness and grow sales. By leveraging Table Talks, ButcherBox is aiming to be more brand-focused and engaging with its target audience in order to further its influencer strategy. “Instagram is our most …read more
