The goal: To prove that influencer marketing could drive measurable commercial outcomes - boosting awareness, improving brand perception, and delivering a minimum 4:1 ROI.
The approach: Powered by ThisThat’s Simulated Managed Service, two campaigns were run - one to uncover key insights, and the next to optimise performance based on those learnings.
The results:
Greater Anglia partnered with Atomic Supernova and ThisThat to prove that influencer content could do more than drive awareness - it could deliver measurable commercial outcomes. The campaign’s objective was clear:
Using ThisThat’s Simulated Managed Service offering, Greater Anglia ran two consecutive campaigns. We identified high-performing creators aligned with key audience interests, tested content formats across Instagram and TikTok, and ran influencer content alongside traditional paid social to compare short-term efficiency.
The approach harnessed the power of Brand Lift to:
Success meant proving that influencer marketing could do more than generate reach. It needed to perform at every stage of the funnel and justify its role as a revenue-driving channel.
One core insight changed everything: When Greater Anglia switched the messaging to focus on the offering of fast, direct trains between London and East Anglia, curiosity and action followed. This simple insight became the fuel that built affinity and got people booking tickets.
The campaign exceeded every commercial and brand objective:
Campaign 1: Uncover the Driver of Action
Campaign 2: Optimise Based on Insight
ThisThat’s data also uncovered key platform and audience insight. TikTok performed best among women under the age of 35, while Instagram delivered stronger results with men aged 35 to 44. In terms of messaging, Duo ticket offers resonated more with women, whereas Group ticket offers connected better with male audiences.
ThisThat uncovered the key drivers through the entire funnel: When people became aware of Greater Anglia’s fast, direct train routes, their curiosity increased. Curious consumers were 1.3x more likely to feel affinity, and those with affinity were 2x more likely to book. That full-funnel logic shaped every creative and media decision.
Greater Anglia now sees influencer activity as a performance lever. This campaign proved its commercial role at scale.
