King of Retail 2

Retail Chaos Simulator, Organised Brilliantly

Strategising, crafting, and executing the storefront before players even entered it. The Game Marketer handled everything marketing-related, just not stocking the shelves with corn beef and cereal.

Strategy and Planning

The campaign began with a detailed mapping of the simulation and tycoon creator landscape. This allowed the team to identify those with authentic influence in the genre. The plan balanced targeted paid placements with a large-scale wave of organic key distribution to build momentum from multiple angles.

Influencer Outreach

Creators across Twitch and YouTube were invited to participate during the Early Access launch and the Steam Summer Sale. The effort combined sponsored content with open key offers, resulting in a blend of paid and organic coverage.

PR and Press Management

Media coverage in genre specific outlets supported the influencer push. This gave the game credibility and expanded its reach beyond the creator community.

Social Media and Community Management

Community channels amplified creator content, sharing live stream announcements, highlights, and gameplay clips. This encouraged more players to join the conversation and engage with the content.

Trailers, Creative Assets, and Design Support

High quality trailers, GIFs, and promotional images were created for both social and creator use. These assets made it easier for influencers to promote their content and for audiences to connect with the game visually.

Paid Media Management

Targeted ad spend supported the two main phases of the campaign. Ads were focused on audiences most likely to engage and convert during the Early Access launch and the Summer Sale.
