Strategic Social Media Management Fuels Growth for RY3 Whiskey

RY3 Whiskey is a premium whiskey brand known for its unique blends and rich flavors. But they faced a significant challenge. Despite having a line of high quality expressions, their social media engagement was stagnant. The brand’s Instagram account, in particular, was struggling to capture the attention of whiskey enthusiasts and potential customers. With a commitment to overhauling their social media presence, RY3 Whiskey turned to 1744 Marketing for a comprehensive social media management strategy.



The Challenges

  1. Low Engagement: Content interactions were minimal, resulting in a lack of enthusiasm and engagement from followers.

  2. Limited Impressions: Posts were not reaching a broad audience, hindering brand visibility and awareness.

  3. Restricted Reach: The content was not attracting new followers, limiting the growth potential of the account.



Our Strategy and Execution


As a full service creative and marketing agency capable of crafting high-quality content and unique social media strategies, we were excited at the challenge in front of us.
