Shaping Influencer Campaigns Using Sentiment from E-Commerce Reviews

Business Challenge

Business-Challenge

A fast-scaling D2C beauty and fashion brand spent lakhs on influencer campaigns—but wasn't getting expected ROI.

Their pain points:

  • Influencer content was misaligned with what customers really valued.
  • Negative reviews surfaced shortly after campaigns launched.
  • Product features promoted by influencers often mismatched customer experience.

“We need to stop pushing talking points and start amplifying what real users actually say.”

The brand partnered with Datazivot for E-Commerce Reviews Scraping to analyze customer feedback from Amazon, Flipkart, and Myntra. The insights were used to craft a targeted, data-driven influencer strategy aligned with real consumer sentiments.

Objectives

Objectives
  • Extract real customer sentiment and top-praised product features.
  • Identify key themes and phrases used in positive reviews.
  • Craft influencer briefs using voice-of-customer insights.
  • Flag potential product issues before campaign amplification.
  • Track sentiment shifts before and after campaign drops.

Our Approach

Our-Approach

1. Review Sentiment Mining

We scraped 100K+ reviews across:

  • Amazon – Lipsticks, foundation, skincare combos
  • Myntra – Dresses, tops, shoes
  • Flipkart – Grooming kits, accessories

Captured:

  • Product name, platform, rating
  • Review text, timestamp
  • Sentiment score
  • Keywords and recurring themes

2. Review Language → Influencer Copy Mapping

From highly positive reviews, we extracted:

  • Frequently used adjectives: “lightweight,” “non-sticky,” “perfect shade”
  • Common benefits: “lasts all day,” “blends well,” “true to color”
  • Emotional cues: “felt confident,” “finally found my shade”

These became the foundation for influencer talking points.

3. Issue Detection Before Campaigns

We ran sentiment alerts on target SKUs before campaign launch:

  • Negative review volume
  • Keywords tied to dissatisfaction
  • Pre-launch return patterns

Campaigns were paused or messaging adjusted accordingly.

Campaign Performance Boost

Campaign-Performance-Boost

1. Higher Engagement & Authenticity

Influencers mirrored exact phrases from reviews:

  • Feels weightless even in humidity”
  • “Finally a kurta that fits perfectly from shoulder to waist”

Followers commented: “Same here!” / “That’s exactly what I thought!”

Result:

  • Engagement up by 34%
  • CTR improved 21%
  • Return rate dropped 17% on featured SKUs

2. Pre-Launch Review Pulse Avoided Backlash

One serum had rising complaints (“smells weird,” “sticky texture”) on Amazon.

Sentiment score dropped to 59%.

Datazivot flagged it, and the influencer campaign was delayed.

Brand reformulated fragrance and relaunched 5 weeks later—positive sentiment rebounded to 80%.

Saved ₹5.2 lakh in potential influencer spend waste.

3. Localized Messaging from Review Regions

Using reviewer locations and language style:

  • South India: Emphasized “no white cast” in sunscreen
  • West India: Highlighted “festive look” in fashion apparel
  • Hindi-speaking regions: Used translated phrases from positive reviews in reels

Regional influencer briefs matched review sentiment — improving local conversions by 26%.
