Future plans and recommendations
Making UGC a central part of peak season promotions
As OtO gears up for its seasonal business peak between March and July, the real impact of Billo’s content on sales and engagement remains to be fully seen. However, Lia is optimistic about the role of UGC in their upcoming ad creative and social media strategy, planning to use Billo for both in-season promotions and off-season engagement.
Lia encourages other companies to explore Billo for their UGC needs, highlighting the platform’s ability to simplify the content creation process. The recommendation comes with a suggestion for Billo to introduce a creator filter by state, accommodating specific needs like weather-related content, which could further tailor the service to OtO’sunique requirements.
