Record TV, the second biggest TV broadcaster in Brazil, premiered A Fazenda’s 14th edition in 2022. The reality show is one of the biggest and most relevant in the country, with expressive numbers on TV and digital. The show increasing growth presents us new challenges each edition. Nowadays, our digital platforms are consolidated and generating revenue for the project.
Our main challenge was to create a strategy that unifies commercial and editorial interests, reinforcing out multiplatform identity and increasing the buzz towards the show. How can we match all these goals, meet our followers’ expectations and substantially increase that base? To do so, we’ve invested heavily in creativity, innovation and good practice on the chosen platforms.
The strategy was about the heavy use of our digital platforms: Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, PlayPlus (streaming) and R7.com (our news outlet).

On PlayPlus, Record TV’s streaming platform, we offered 9 live signals broadcasting different rooms from the house, 24 hours a day. Subscribers also had access to full episodes of the show and snippets of the coverage highlights.
To consolidate commercial and editorial interests, we have created a series of original content exclusively to our digital platforms: podcast, live, special shows with the eliminated cast, a behind the scenes footage with our host Adriane Galisteu and content recorded by the players themselves in confinement.

We’ve bet on Twitter to generate a buzz and engage our official hashtags. To do so we created an intense flow of live tweeting active for 24 hours, throughout the 7 days of the week. The best tweets appear daily on TV screen during the show. In addition to a wall of avatars, GIFs and Trending Topics notices to encourage the audience interaction.
With a vast possibility of viral excerpts, we had dived right into Instagram’s Reels. We’ve managed to reach 40 posts a day with fun videos, edited vertically, in addition to exclusive content for the platform. On TikTok, we were present with memes, viral audios and, of course, the latest trends.
A Fazenda was the first reality show in the world to premiere on Metaverse! After creating an avatar in the platform, the user had the chance to experience the show in an even more interactive. Explore the sets, socialize with other users, compete with users in fun games and perform tasks inspired by the show’s reality, which will worth points and prizes.
