Primary Challenge
The brand had already made significant investments in upper-funnel awareness tactics, including streaming video and in-market audience strategies, which successfully increased visibility and brand recognition. The next phase of growth presented a more nuanced challenge:
- Expand new-to-brand (NTB) customer acquisition beyond existing efforts
- Drive stronger shopper engagement signals earlier in the funnel
- Identify a tactic that not only increased reach but also moved audiences closer to conversion
In short, the brand needed an effective mid-funnel strategy to bridge the gap between awareness and purchase intent.
Teikametrics helped us take our awareness-driven DSP strategy further by introducing Prime Video Ads. The results showed real engagement lifts and proved the importance of testing mid-funnel tactics to capture new-to-brand customers.
Primary Solution
A test campaign was designed to introduce a premium streaming video ad format as a complement to existing programmatic prospecting and retargeting efforts. The initiative followed a structured, measurement-driven approach:
Performance Benchmarking: Results from the streaming video format were directly compared against other DSP tactics across key KPIs, including NTB rate, click-through rate (CTR), add-to-cart (ATC) rate, and detail page view rate (DPVR)
Defined Test Window: A 30-day testing period was established, using existing DSP performance as a baseline
Launched Streaming Video Ads: The new format was activated alongside current DSP tactics
Advanced Measurement & Optimization: Engagement and NTB performance were tracked across exposure paths using advanced analytics and cloud-based measurement capabilities
Primary Results
The test delivered strong results, validating the streaming video format as an effective mid-funnel driver of engagement and intent:
- 9.4% of all NTB purchases were attributed to the streaming video campaign
- +10.4% NTB rate compared to other DSP tactics
- 2× higher CTR than the DSP account average
- +57% higher ATC rate versus other DSP tactics
- +10% higher DPVR compared to the account average
These outcomes demonstrated that streaming video ads were a powerful complement to an awareness-heavy DSP strategy, driving stronger new-to-brand acquisition and meaningful engagement earlier in the shopper journey.
