Influence4you’s insights and our setting up of the communication.
Influence4You identified the Youtubers with great affinity with Konami’s universe (for example of PES’ and FIFA’s fans for the release of PES or horror games addicts for the latest Castlevania) and offered them to review the games.
For the most significant in terms of followers, a direct and privileged contact was set up with the brand through visit at Konami’s office, interviews with the marketing director or product manager…
