CreatorIQ | Armani Beauty’s Silvia Galfo on How Luxury Brands Can Leverage Creators @CreatorIQOfficial | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 9 hours ago
In Ep. 72 of Earned, Conor sits down with Silvia Galfo, general manager of Armani Beauty.
We start by talking about influencers: when Silvia first realized their potential, and how the narrative—and budgets—around influencer marketing have shifted in recent years. Silvia describes how important it is for luxury brands to strike the right balance between establishing a brand-led narrative and giving up some control to creators. We also discuss how to divvy up the marketing budget with the increasing number of channels available today, and Silvia shares her test-and-learn philosophy. We then explore the world of fragrance marketing—a historically difficult vertical to market across social media. Silvia emphasizes the importance of entertaining your audience, and shares the success of a recent TikTok activation for Armani’s Acqua di Giò Profondo fragrance. To close the show, we discuss how to adapt your brand’s message to resonate across international markets, and why Silvia’s leadership style prioritizes nimbleness and agility.
