Argos wanted to remind consumers of its quality and affordable garden range, and make it THE destination for garden lovers this summer.

We commissioned research that found  Brits are suffering from “Garden Envy, and that 71% of the UK want to outshine their neighbours with their garden.

We enlisted BBC Gardener’s World star Adam Frost to help tell our story in a light-hearted yet informative way, as well as offer his own advice on getting the best garden on the street. Argos experts confirmed the garden products that Brits love the most, and lent their thought-leadership to the outreach.

Media outreach across broadcast, print and online was underpinned on social with collaborations with garden-lovers Chloe Plumbstead and Daisy Payne who spotlighted hero items in Argos’ range.

39 pieces of coverage across broadcast, print and online with 100% positive sentiment, 95% of pieces also included an Argos spokesperson quote.

Media highlights included Hello!, Daily Star, Daily Mirror, BBC Radio, and Glamour.

Our influencer activity also surpassed the industry average for reach by 136%, with a flurry of organic posts to boot.
