Digital campaign focused on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter 4. Paid articles, interviews and stories published in carefully selected daily newspaper and magazines 4. Organized events for the target groups that would be covered by specialized media 5. Orchestrated campaign with food bloggers and other social media influencers. 16
