About Magnific
Helping startups find users/customers.
Magnific finds consumers that will love your product. Whether you need users, customers, or super shareable content, Magnific is here to inject rocket fuel into your business. We are a London-based, VC-funded (Ascension Ventures) company who recently completed the ‘Techstars Accelerator Program’. We have a very successful background in content, having launched and run two successful content sites: planetivy.com and screenrobot.com. What we do #1: User acquisition/social media growth strategy From a standing start, Pitchswag, a new online incubator, was looking to build awareness of its idea, gather feedback, and drive sign-ups on its site. Approach: we identified and reached out to people that were most likely to want to use their platform - entrepreneurs, founders, CEOs, investors, designers, and developers. We sent over 3,000 tweets in the first 75 days, amongst other interactions, thereby directly or indirectly interacting with potential users. We believe every interaction with a relevant user can be turned into a potential sign-up onsite. We also recommended an “invite friends” code for all users who signed up, which increased the amount of sign-ups exponentially. Results: Pitchswag’s Twitter following grew by over 6,500 people in the first 90 days of the campaign: Pitchswag was featured on influential sites like Start-up Daily, Latest Buzz, and Curagami We drove over 10,000 highly targeted visitors to their website 1,500+ entrepreneurs, experts, and investors in total signed-up for Pitchswag in the first 90 days Pitchswag received constructive feedback on its idea from hundreds of potential users on various platforms. They also received lots of positive public feedback on Twitter. What we do #2: Write unique, highly shareable content, which gets your brand noticed Magnific enables you to tap into our 750 writers, editors, and marketers, who are familiar with many different niches and trends, so can write in a voice that your customers can relate to. Because of this, Magnific can crowdsource and produce great ideas from writers, then internally ensure that the content is highly targeted, has strong SEO benefits, and is highly shareable. We can produce a lot of great content extremely quickly for clients - we’ve had briefs come in and copy sent back to the client the same day on numerous occasions. Making sharable content is hard. Traditional writers have not been trained with this niche skill in mind. We’ve learned how to consistently write content that keeps users engaged, and reaches a wide audience through the power of the viral web. We have a proven track record in creating incredibly shareable content that will get you noticed. We have driven over 17 million pageviews to our own and other sites in the last two years. We have over 100,000 likes and followers on our Facebook, Twitter, and Tumblr channels. We understand how to “own” a brand voice and how to create viral content. Brands we’ve produced content for: Smirnoff Mercedes-Benz Levis Diesel Burberry Converse Timberland Cubanisto Camper Budweiser Red Stripe We are living in a world where content is king but it is a challenge for brands and companies to be the one that steals and holds attention. With our content’s inherent ability to spread by being shared, it will be an incredibly valuable asset to your business.
