The firm primarily targeted females in the age group of 18-24 years that have an interest in fashion. Dynamic ads were also used by Sonyunara to see which products were mostly browsed by the users. Popular items were displayed in the ads along with the prices to drive sales.

The firm formulated a brilliant strategy to make users buy the products promoted in their ad campaign.

To trigger the user’s mind, they curated optimal creatives to showcase their best products. This was done in various formats and aspect ratios to cleverly cover maximum ground. The key aspect here was to set a picture in the user’s mind about the products.

To nudge the users into considering the products, Sonyunara added information about discounts and prices in the ads itself. This was done to tune the user’s mind for purchasing the product. Moreover, also to bring users to the website.

Lastly, the brand included a “Swipe Up” button as a CTA in the ad. This redirected the users to the website where they could purchase the product.

These ads were carefully optimized by the marketing team of Facebook before running in the Facebook feeds. Moreover, the Facebook core audience tool ensured that the ads reached the right audience.

The creation of highly interactive ads was the first step that made Style Theory different from others, and the credit goes to Shuttlerock, of course.

The initial phase of ad generation and running laid the foundation of the process.

Performance:

Goal:

The major objective of Shopee was to include different creative elements in their video ads and test their impact on the app installs.

Approach:

To extend its outreach. Shopee produced dynamic ads that were targeted to different people based on their interests. And the initial part of their approach included working with Facebook’s marketing partner, Smartly.io.

Smartly.io helped in creating product ads by adding filters to them like frames, text, price tags, etc. These dynamic ads were created in two templates that included cash on delivery messages, but only one of them had the brand name. This factor helped Shopee understand the importance of a brand name in marketing.

The ad campaign undertaken by Shopee included the use of both mobile app install ads and photo ads in the carousel format.

Buyer Journey Stages Targeted:

The creation of video ads with creative elements was the first step to form an impact on the user’s mind. The dynamic interactive ads helped in reaching out to more users.

Looks like Shopee knew how to tease the users to purchase the product. They smartly included the “Cash on delivery” message in each of their product images in the carousel format. This was done to keep the user’s mind at ease as they have to pay on having the product in their hands. It is solely to make them consider the product.

In the end, Shopee included the “Install Now” button with each of the products so that users can install the app, thus boosting app installs.

Did they Succeed?

The campaign led by Shopee succeeded with the following results with branded ads:

  • 77% more incremental app installs

After going through these case studies, you must be so excited to get to work on your Facebook ad campaign!


But know that not all Facebook Ad campaigns are made the same and not all turn out successful.


Successful campaigns involve clever use of the right ad formats and Facebook Ad products. They also require thorough research about the region in which the campaign is run, market demand, competitor analysis and product viability.


Good luck!
