The challenge

Osprey Packs were looking to maintain their technical authority within the Outdoor space while expanding key travel product focus and Gen-Z buy in.

The solution

We developed a channel-specific strategy delivering content segmented to key product and audience verticals that enabled growth and authority. Osprey’s technical outdoor position was further cemented with key outdoor creators on Instagram while expanding its younger audience buy-in with travel and lifestyle influencers on TikTok.

The obstacles

It was integral that we engaged our Outdoor technical audience and maintained the trust that Osprey’s heritage has garnered. It was also important to look fresh and have an eye on the future, ensuring we weren’t left behind in the ever-changing social media landscape.

A look to the future

For Osprey Packs, the future holds greater partnerships with like-minded brands, significant macro-influencer collaborations and further technical, lifestyle and travel community building on Instagram and TikTok.
