Campaign - Department Store Chain

Problem

To create awareness about the Prom Fashion events held at different locations of the departmental store across the country across the span of 4 weeks. The objective was to increase foot traffic to the events and get parents and their teens to shop at our client’s departmental store for their prom needs.

Challenges

  • Identify an approach to reach, engage and interact with the target audience
  • Identify an approach to ensure relevant message is passed to the right audience
  • Identify geo-fence for each store location
  • Identify custom audience segments to engage the right audience

Tools

  • Google DFP

  • Geo-aware

  • HTML 5

Result

  • To reach, engage and interact with the target audience a combined use of location data was used
  • To ensure relevant message is passed to the right audience gender based targeting and contextual targeting was used
  • Two level geo-fence was used one for phase 1 of the campaign (1st two weeks) and phase 2 (last 2 weeks) a tighter geo-fence
  • The geo-fence yielded in targeting audience who were already out for shopping and influenced their decisions
  • Created an audience package to engage with Style Fashionistas and Fashion shoppers
  • The Expandable Tap-to-Calendar banners performed best within the 5-6 mile radius
  • Consumers who were not close enough to pop into a store that day were able to save the event information to their phones for future reference
  • Overall CTR for the campaign was 0.61%. The Tap to Calendar creative in particular allowed for greater consumer engagement with the brand with 3.21% of consumers saving the event to their mobile calendar
  • Campaign performance also spiked on weekends and event days
