RMB, the Belgian media sales house, is dedicated to transforming its business to make it more resilient with a focus on innovation, exploration, and sustainability. Nevertheless, they feel under pressure from the new players in the market. As a result, in 2022, as an addition to the creative solutions unit launched in 2018 known as Flash, RMB decided to develop a new brand named Slice. This new department serves as a nexus, bringing together brands and content creators such as streamers streamers, YouTubers, gamers, etc. Jointly, they develop next-level branded content for clients.
About Slice
Officially inaugurated in March 2023, Slice represents an ecosystem that brings together brands and young Belgian content creators. Equipped studios, strategically placed within RMB’s offices, include a lounge room, an audio room, a beauty room, a green room, and a gaming room, expediting the production process. RMB contributes its client relationships and expertise as a sales house. The objective is to facilitate connections between advertisers and innovative Belgian content creators, fostering exceptional long-term collaborations based on shared values and authenticity.
Slice is not just another influencer agency, what distinguishes them is their long-term strategy, they don’t work on action-based partnerships. Each creator possesses their unique universe, and brands seamlessly enter this space to communicate authentically with the audience. Slice ensures that creators and brands share common values.
Napoleon Sports podcast “Nonante Minutes”
An illustrative example of a Slice campaign made in collaboration with a betting company Napoleon Sports was the launch of a podcast and a brand new channel called “90 minutes”. The podcast, comprising seven episodes discussing football with interviews of renowned footballers, featured hosts who were football specialists and Twitch or other streaming experts. The content was disseminated across Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram.
Payconiq campaign
Another client, Payconiq (a mobile payment system via QR codes), engaged young talents as brand ambassadors, each taking a unique approach. One YouTuber wagered with people on the street, daring them to deliver shocking news to a relative. If they obliged, he rewarded them using Payconiq.
Another influencer developed a special dance for TikTok illustrating the no need for a wallet via “Bye-bye wallet” dance when using Payconiq. Both approaches were very successful in engaging their followers and received a positive response. More about this campaign here.
Other clients of Slice include Axe, Proximus, Base, Jupiler, Orange, Keytrade Bank, Disney, Sony Pictures, VISITWallonia, etc.
