Description

AWARD - AHDB requires the specialist services of a social media agency to continue to deliver the 'always on' social media activity for AHDB's We Eat Balanced campaign, helping us achieve our goals, whilst ensuring the best return on our levy payers' money. We are looking for a supplier with experience of running large social campaigns that focus on positively influencing consumer attitudes. We Eat Balanced is AHDB's flagship consumer marketing campaign, launched as a pilot in January 2021. The We Eat Balanced social media channels were initially launched to host advertising content for this pilot, but due to the successful results, 'always on' social media activity has since been activated, as well as further large TV-led advertising campaign bursts. AHDB does have an in-house social media team, however they currently do not have enough capacity to support this workstream in full, hence it has so far been outsourced, but it may be brought back in-house in future. Note: although this brief focuses on We Eat Balanced, there's potential for AHDB to also need support for its other social media channels in future. This contract will be initially for 18 months with the option to extend for a further 2 periods of 12 months each Suppliers must register on the Bravo portal in order to gain access to this opportunity and the documents
