The Challenge & Client Goals
Smash + Tess has an extremely strong brand presence within their home country of Canada.
They had a goal of 7x ROAS for Black Friday and Cyber Monday 2022, which would represent a modest increase over the previous years of 3x
They also wanted to improve tracking given the recent changes with iOS 14 and implement cross-channel attribution modeling
Given all of the talk in the news about recessions and the decline in consumer spending, they were understandably pessimistic about the potential revenue during this year's Black Friday Cyber Monday sales.
The roadmap to success:
We started with implementing a first-party tracking tool for cross-channel attribution tracking, which relies on first-party data collected via the website to track consumers back to their source of origin and track their journey far beyond the typical attribution window seen on ad platforms. This will help with accurately tracking customer lifetime value and the impact of retargeting efforts over time
Second, we built lead-gen campaigns specifically aimed at collecting new customer data for future LTV. These proved to be very effective at collecting new email addresses and contributed immensely to the growth in sales during this years BF/CM.
Next we built consolidated campaigns specifically for Black Friday/Cyber Monday relying heavily on retargeting as well as top-of-funnel new customer acquisition across the US and Canada
