ABOUT MINH DUC

TURNING IDEAS INTO CAMPAIGNS, CONTENT AND MUSIC.

I'm Minh Duc, a Marketing and MarTech student at Western Sydney University through UEH–ISB and a Marketing Trainee at EF Vietnam. My work at EF spans email marketing and organic content across TikTok, Facebook and Instagram. Following a recent reallocation of channel responsibilities, my organic focus is now the main and secondary TikTok channels, developing content better suited to their target audiences. TikTok Ads is also within my current scope. Outside work, I write and record music as Lil Ewyn and explore visual storytelling through photography.

EF Vietnam: Email Marketing & The Banner Suite

ROLE: MARKETING TRAINEE · END-TO-END EXECUTION
End-to-End Ownership: From 1 August 2026 onward, I hold end-to-end ownership of email marketing: copywriting, banner design, image selection, email construction, campaign setup, scheduling and sending to the audience called “Opps”.
WHY THIS CREATIVE

Working hypothesis: a short language trip could feel more achievable when framed around unused annual leave. I translated that into a two-week promise, experience-led banner and consultation CTA.

Business task: nurture existing interest towards an inquiry. The result below describes the wider email programme, not the effect of this banner alone.

+179%
WEIGHTED EMAIL CTR VS. PRECEDING 1-YEAR BENCHMARK

Weighted email CTR increased by approximately 179% versus the preceding one-year benchmark, across the post-takeover campaign aggregate (37 campaigns, approximately 1.55M emails sent). Maintained across full sending volume. This is an aggregate account-level benchmark, not an individual banner result or proof of revenue/lead uplift.

CAMPAIGN CONCEPT

The Glow-Up Stitch · Valentine’s Self-Gifting

From Rosé handover to creator unboxing match-cut glow.

YSL Beauty: “The Glow-Up Stitch”

ROLE: MARKETING EXTERN · INDEPENDENT ANGLE 1 DEVELOPMENT
Angle 1 Concept Ownership: Independently developed Angle 1 (“The Glow-Up Stitch”) from creative hypothesis and TikTok-native hook to visual storyboard and 5-stage detailed shot list within a university externship submission. Explicitly labeled as an academic creative proposal, not a commercially launched campaign.
BRIEF → CREATIVE HYPOTHESIS → MECHANIC

Brief: build Valentine gifting appeal and social conversation among Gen Z. Creative hypothesis: use self-confidence as the bridge between Rosé and self-gifting.

Decision: a repeatable gift handover, product “click” and Stitch invitation. The hypothesis was not validated through consumer research; the result is a completed concept and shot list.

5-STAGE PARTICIPATORY HOOK STRUCTURE
01 The Pass: Rosé pushes a gift towards camera, establishing first-person handover.
02 The Receive: Creator appears to receive the gift through TikTok Stitch in an undone state.
03 The Reveal: Sensory close-up unboxing highlighting product texture and luxury cues.
04 The Transition: Compact click & match-cut trigger the empowered glow transformation.
05 The Invitation: Creator calls audience into the #PassTheGlowChallenge.
