The Brief

Dino Tattoo Show, a large-scale tattoo convention, approached OCPR at a crucial stage in their campaign. 2025 marked the event’s first year at Magna Science Adventure Centre, a major step up in scale that required a more cohesive and strategic marketing approach.

OCPR was tasked with delivering an integrated strategy spanning campaign planning, social media, paid advertising, content creation, email marketing, and graphic design. The goal was to strengthen brand presence, increase awareness, and drive artist sign-ups and ticket sales while establishing a framework for long-term event growth.

KPIs

THE CHALLENGES

  • Timeframe: Entering the campaign just months before the show meant compressing strategy and execution into a shorter period.
  • Artist Recruitment: Several booths still needed to be filled close to the event date.
  • Limited Content Library: With little material from the 2024 event, we had to create compelling new assets quickly.
  • Ticket Sales Pressure: With a large venue and ambitious attendance targets, digital campaigns needed to convert at speed.

THE WORK

Strategy & Planning
We delivered a fully integrated campaign spanning organic social, paid social, email marketing, influencer collaborations, and UGC activation. Our strategy was built around a clear marketing funnel, guiding audiences from initial awareness through to conversion, with a structured content calendar and clear milestones to keep activity on track.

Organic Social Media
We established a dynamic rhythm of content, spotlighting artists, behind-the-scenes moments, family-friendly messaging, and countdown content. Instagram emerged as a central platform, driving 1.53M organic impressions, 259K reach, and 1,183 new followers. Facebook also grew consistently, generating 1.38M impressions.

Paid Social Advertising
Our paid campaigns focused on urgency messaging and flash sales, using creative offers and strong CTAs to drive momentum in the final weeks. During key sale phases, campaign efficiency improved significantly, with cost-per-purchase dropping as low as £4.50–£5.31. Remarketing activity also proved highly effective, delivering strong engagement and cost-efficient conversions at an average of £5.53 per purchase.

Email Marketing
The email audience grew to 15,232 recipients, more than 50% higher than the prior month. Campaigns achieved a 28.73% open rate and 1.78% click-through rate, with automated flows performing even stronger at a 41% open rate, 3.14% click rate, and nearly 5% on-site activity.

THE RESULTS

  • Strong Social Growth: 1.53M impressions on Instagram and 1.38M impressions on Facebook, with 1,183 new followers gained and consistently high engagement across key content pillars.
  • Email Marketing Success: Audience scaled to over 15,000 subscribers, supported by targeted email flows and regular campaign sends that strengthened audience retention and on-site activity.
  • Artist Booths Filled: Through a combination of targeted campaigns and content promotion, we helped secure late artist sign-ups and fill remaining booth spaces ahead of the event.
  • CRM Management & Campaign Integration: Managed email and CRM activity to maintain consistent messaging across all channels, ensuring smooth communication with both attendees and artists.

OCPR’s integrated campaign strengthened Dino Tattoo Show’s presence across every marketing touchpoint, contributing to a successful event and setting the stage for even stronger results in the future.
