Measures
e-dialog’s collaboration with Emil Frey began with the consolidation of campaign activities in Campaign Manager 360 (CM360) and Display & Video 360 (DV360). As a second step, personalized communications were created in three languages via Google’s Studio. Subsequently, a purchase propensity model was developed based on raw data from web tracking and utilized via BigQuery. Finally, performance and interaction data from CM360 were used to determine the ideal contact frequency per funnel stage to improve media efficiency.
Results
Emil Frey recorded growth across a range of KPIs—despite ongoing political and social unrest throughout Europe. For example, automated frequency capping via Ads Data Hub saved significant time in campaign management.
The company also more than doubled its conversion rate, while cost per lead nearly halved. Furthermore, audiences with purchase propensity performed 1650% better than the similar audience control group in the timeframe following this case study.
