Objectives

Establish a hyper-engaged global community of soccer lovers on Facebook by creating original soccer-focused video content and compiling the best user-generated video clips of news, stories, tricks, and fun training content for the ultimate soccer fan.

Strategy and Execution

Create and publish a steady volume of compelling video content, exclusive interviews, and original series every day for three international pages: “Oh My Goal,” “Oh My Goal - France,” and “Oh My Goal - Asia.” Each page features the best of soccer: professional play, Sunday league, freestyle and even soccer video games. 

Engage with the community and optimize our publishing strategy around the content that fans love the most. 

Use the company’s proprietary social listening platform JellyPulse to identify popular trending themes and stories to inform content creation. Edit and optimize each video for maximum engagement using our exclusive multi-variant testing approach that vets the best video edit, caption, thumbnail and other features so we score big with each post.

Encourage positive two-way conversations and use a friendly, authentic, fan-centric voice that sets the tone for the community. We sound like true soccer fans because we are true soccer fans. Our passion cannot be imitated. 

Our “Oh My Goal” strategy combines creativity, data-driven technology, and insatiable team spirit to cultivate a lively community where soccer fans thrive.
