Van Holland Stroopwafels

Creating content and social buzz around an iconic Amsterdam treat through a 30-day social media and influencer campaign.

Van Holland Stroopwafels
Introduction

Van Holland Stroopwafels is a family run stroopwafel shop in the heart of Amsterdam.

Built on three generations of tradition, the shop is known for producing fresh stroopwafels using quality ingredients and original family recipes.

Eureka Creates was brought in for a one-time 30-day social media and influencer campaign with a clear objective: generate fresh content, create buzz around the brand and strengthen its visibility among tourists looking for an authentic stroopwafel experience in Amsterdam.

Rather than ongoing social media management, the project was designed as a focused activation where content creation, influencer marketing and social media worked together to generate immediate visibility and engagement.

Project note: this was a one time 30 day campaign. Eureka Creates is no longer responsible for Van Holland’s social media management, content or current digital presence. The results and visuals shown in this case study reflect the period of our campaign.

The Challenge

Standing out in one of Amsterdam’s most competitive tourist markets.

Amsterdam has no shortage of places selling stroopwafels, making visibility and first impressions especially important.

Tourists frequently use social media to discover where to eat and what to experience while visiting the city. Van Holland therefore needed its online presence during the campaign to make the same strong impression as the experience customers received in store.

The opportunity was to refresh how the brand appeared on social media, generate more engaging visual content and highlight differentiators such as its vegan options.

Most importantly, the campaign needed to create buzz and put Van Holland in front of more potential customers within a short period.

The Approach

Combining fresh contentwith <strong>influencervisibility.</strong>

Eureka Creates developed a focused social media and influencer marketing campaign designed to create maximum impact within 30 days. Danny Martins, our Founder and Strategy Director, worked with the Eureka Creates team to refresh Van Holland’s social media presence and strengthen how the brand, products and in store experience were presented online. The campaign also highlighted the availability of vegan stroopwafels, creating an additional point of differentiation for the brand’s international audience. To generate fresh content and expand visibility, Eureka Creates curated and organized an influencer photoshoot around the Van Holland experience. Influencers were selected with the target audience in mind, allowing the campaign to combine professionally created social media content with authentic creator led exposure. The resulting content was used throughout the 30 day activation to create a stronger, more engaging and more shareable social media presence.
