Virtual Product Launches – Smirnoff, US

Virtual Product Launches – Smirnoff, US

Case Studies

In partnership with New York based marketing agency, we managed 8+ Smirnoff product launches for top influencers via Zoom and vMix, with high-profile celebrity guests and DJs. Each launch featured talks from the talent along with an activity such as dance, barre class, talk show or cocktail mixing, plus interactive breakout room experiences.

Our team produced all of the technical aspects, controlled video and audio playback, show calling, presenter management, live streaming, virtual event platform and delegate interaction to ensure a professional, highly ‘Instagrammable’ experience!

“Virtual Approval helped us transform our annual meeting for over 150 senior business and investment leaders into an interactive webinar with keynote speakers, breakout discussions and a forum for feedback discussion. We couldn’t have asked for a better partner. Rachel and the team created the perfect format, choreographed the discussion superbly and created an impactful series of post event videos for our website. The team at Virtual Approval is outstanding.”

"We engaged Virtual Approval to act in the role of administrator for the first-ever virtual trial in the Business and Property Courts. Rachel worked with us to organise, research, arrange and manage the secure registration of people to attend, the daily viewing and recording, and liaison with the transcription service. It is hard to overstate what a fantastic service Rachel and her company provided.”

"Rachel and her amazing team assisted us in facilitating a business networking dinner and they were truly exceptional. I would not hesitate in recommending Rachel and her colleagues. In the run up to the event nothing was too much trouble, and they shared great ideas and suggestions based on their successes from previous event experiences. On the night, they were super organised, cool, calm, collected. The feedback we had from guests was first class. For all of our upcoming event needs, Rachel and her team will be my first port of call."

"Saved our home and lives. 1st online High Court case (technology and construction) managed in a very professional manner without a glitch. if it was not for Rachel's input and management, the courts would not have been confident of the platform and our family would have been bullied and forced into bankruptcy by the council. Can't recommend the company highly enough. Thanks Rachel"

"Virtual Approval has made coordinating our virtual sessions a breeze!  I have worked with their team on the operations/logistics side, when we needed a broader team to support our virtual offerings.  Virtual Approval came in with a fully drawn-out process, they assigned multiple producers with time zone coverage across the world, helped us set up trainings with our facilitators, and then trained new team members on their own without our help once they knew the ropes.  They are transparent and reasonable with their rates, and are so easy to work with!"
