The Goat Agency’s Post

📍🏳️🌈 PRIDE IN PLACE 📍🏳️🌈 This Pride Month, we're shining a spotlight on some incredibly talented UK-based LGBTQ+ creators. In this three-part interview series, you can hear how they got into content creation and social media, what some of the challenges have been, and examples of how they view current representation of LGBTQ+ people in media. Each interview takes place in a location holding special meaning to the interviewee (hence the name 😉). Kicking it off, we have the phenomenal Brian Ó'Muirí, an Irish actor and content creator currently dazzling audiences at the Prince of Wales Theatre in London with his role in The Book of Mormon. 🎭 In our interview with Brian, we discussed: 🗺️ How a personal setback actually got him into content creation 🏳️🌈 What #Pride really means to him 🥳 Ways in which he celebrates his identity and promotes LGBTQ+ visibility through his work 🌈 Hopes for the future of LGBTQ+ representation in media and entertainment Thank you, Brian, for sharing your story and kicking off our series with such authenticity and grace! 🙌 We're also proud to support akt, a charity dedicated to helping young LGBTQ+ people facing homelessness or hostile environments across the nation.

How Brands Approached Pride 2024 Through Influencer Marketing 🏳️🌈 During Pride month it’s been great to see brands and advertisers actively advocating and showing support for LGBTQ+ communities across social media. In the past though, a lot of brands have been accused of “rainbow-washing” around Pride – doing meaningless activity like painting a rainbow across their logo, but showing no further advocacy (or even worse, having policies that actually contradict their public support). 🚫 Social media has given people a voice to call this kind of laziness or hypocrisy out, and more than ever, brands must really consider how they want to meaningfully show up for Pride, and how they’re going to back up their words with actions. We dive into 8 brands that approached Pride in the RIGHT way: ⭐️ NYX Professional Makeup ⭐️ Just Eat Takeaway.com ⭐️ Marc Jacobs Fragrances ⭐️ HSBC ⭐️ Nivea UK (Beiersdorf) ⭐️ Garnier (L'Oréal) ⭐️ MANSCAPED ⭐️ IKEA 🔗 Read our blog here: https://loom.ly/2k7xzhM #Pride2024 #Pride #LGBTQ+ #ContentCreators #InfluencerMarketing

“The reason it’s powerful is because there are great communities that are genuinely engaged with what they’re watching, because it’s what they do after their 9-5” - Ellie Hooper, our Head of Client speaking last week on TikTok's panel in #CannesLions on how to scale influencers 💯 #CannesLions2024 #InfluencerMarketing #Discoverability

I'VE GOT A TEXT! 📱❤️🏝️ It’s summertime in the UK, which can only mean one thing, Love Island is back! Now in its 12th season, the show has grown massively since its launch. Whilst many tune in for the love stories and drama, the show is perhaps best known for its track record of creating influencers, or at least providing the platform for seemingly everyday people to pick up a career in social media as Love Island influencers. Though it is still a reality TV show, Love Island has evolved beyond just that, emerging as a talent pool for the next batch of influencers. We’re unpacking that evolution, looking at how the show has impacted our perception of influencers, and how this narrative has changed over time.
