Social Media Event Campaign Management
Hustle & Harmony
Organic Facebook and Instagram campaign strategy for a ticketed documentary preview, using creative event storytelling to build an audience, increase engagement, drive ticket sales, and support the film’s fundraising goals.
Turning a Film Preview Into a Social Media Event
Yancey Red developed and managed an organic Facebook and Instagram campaign surrounding the preview of a documentary film. Content was designed to introduce the story, create interest in the event, engage potential attendees, and support ticket sales and fundraising while giving the campaign a consistent presence leading up to the screening.
“We really didn’t know where to start in terms of engaging with our audience on social media. Yancey Red knocked it out of the park, making sure we were organized and efficient, keeping track of analytics, and making sure the posts were effective and on message with the highest possible reach. I never imagined how much of a difference social media management would make, but thanks in part to Yancey, we had an amazing campaign that laid the groundwork for a successful film.”
About The Client
The client is an independent documentary film project using a special preview event to introduce the film to audiences, generate support, and raise funds for the project. The campaign needed to market both the screening itself and the larger story behind the documentary.
The Process
The campaign used Facebook and Instagram to build momentum before the event through a mix of film imagery, behind-the-scenes content, story-driven posts, event information, and calls to purchase tickets and support the project. Content shifted as the event approached, moving from awareness and storytelling toward timely reminders and stronger attendance-focused messaging.
Social Media Results
The campaign built momentum around the documentary preview while supporting both attendance and fundraising goals. Organic Facebook and Instagram content gave the project a consistent way to introduce the film, share its story, engage potential attendees, and keep the event visible as the screening approached.
The campaign also demonstrated how social media can support a short-term event without relying solely on promotional posts, using storytelling and audience engagement to create interest before shifting toward ticket-focused messaging.
