ROAR Groupe Awarded Social Media Agency of Record for Massage Envy
NEW YORK, June 9, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- ROAR, a Publicis Groupe Solution, announced today that it has been selected by Massage Envy, the pioneer and largest national franchisor of massage and skincare services, as its Social Media Agency of Record following a competitive review. ROAR will manage all social media efforts across Massage Envy's core channels: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and web -- including social strategy, content creation, digital experiences and social engagement.  "As the way people consume information and engage with brands evolves, we want to meet customers where they are with a compelling and unique voice that extends our broader marketing efforts," said Derek Detenber, senior vice president of marketing at Massage Envy. "ROAR's approach and social expertise demonstrate a real knowledge of our business and our consumer. Their ability to utilize emerging platforms and technology in the space will be key to delivering meaningful and relevant content to our members and guests." Massage Envy believes total body care is an integral part of everyone's well-being journey. Through its innovative membership model, the Massage Envy franchise system enables customers to utilize massage and skincare services as a part of their wellness routine. This idea was introduced in its new advertising campaign called "Because Everything." The campaign removes words such as "luxury," "pamper" and "treat" usually associated with massag and facials. The ROAR Groupe will help fuel this transformation. The agency plans to kick off its efforts with a special Father's Day social media campaign, The Hug Drive. Leigh Baker, Executive Vice President and Managing Director at ROAR, shared, "We believe social is increasingly the new canvas for creativity and engagement. We're excited about the opportunity to work with Massage Envy, not just because it's such a great brand, but also because their team shares our progressive view of the social space. We're going to do amazing work together."
