The Challenge
Bloom is the biggest event in the Irish gardening calendar and one of Tirlán CountryLife’s most important brand opportunities each year.
The challenge wasn’t simply driving awareness of a five day event. It was maximising the commercial value of the sponsorship by building anticipation before Bloom, creating engagement during the festival and maintaining momentum long after the event had ended.
To achieve this, Tirlán CountryLife needed to engage gardening audiences wherever they were discovering inspiration, whether attending Bloom in person, researching online or consuming content throughout their day. The objective was to transform a single sponsorship into an integrated campaign that strengthened brand awareness while delivering measurable commercial performance.


Customer Insight
Home and Garden consumers don’t experience marketing through a single channel.
Our audience research showed they are 24% more likely than the average consumer to follow influencers and experts, 39% more likely to use social media to find inspiration, and 29% more likely to use social media to discover products before making a purchase.
This insight shaped our strategy. Instead of treating Bloom as a five day event, we created an integrated campaign that kept Tirlán CountryLife visible wherever customers were discovering inspiration, researching products and making purchase decisions.
Our Approach
Rather than approaching Bloom as a standalone event, we built a connected media strategy that combined Paid Social, Influencer Marketing and Digital Audio into one integrated customer journey.
Every channel had a clear role.
Influencer partnerships with respected names including Peter Dowdall, Leonie Cornelius, Diarmuid Gavin, Feebee Foran and Niall McCauley created authentic, educational content that resonated with gardening audiences. Rather than traditional promotional posts, creators shared practical advice, planting inspiration and genuine experiences from Bloom, helping build trust and credibility around the CountryLife brand.
Alongside this, we introduced a fresh creative approach across Paid Social, developing new campaign assets specifically around Bloom moments. Creative was continually refined throughout the campaign using live performance data, allowing the highest performing content to be amplified to the most relevant audiences.
For the first time, Digital Audio formed part of the campaign strategy. Premium podcast and streaming platforms extended the reach of Bloom beyond social media, ensuring Tirlán CountryLife remained front of mind during everyday listening moments while connecting with highly relevant gardening and home improvement audiences.
Performance was monitored throughout the campaign, allowing audiences, creative and investment to evolve in real time. By continually optimising the campaign as results came in, we maximised both engagement and commercial return.
