Situation
Retail brand sought advertising impact measurement
β†’
Client: Heritage American women's apparel brand
β†’
Need: Measure and prove ad value
β†’
Approach: Leverage Criteo's Commerce Growth solutions
Digitas, a leading integrated agency within the Publicis Groupe, faced a complex marketing challenge from a heritage American brand specializing in women's clothing, shoes, and accessories. This client, with over 500 physical stores and a substantial online presence, needed to understand and prove the value and impact of their advertising efforts. They aimed to enhance their customer growth by leveraging an omnichannel marketing approach but lacked clarity on how advertising with Criteo influenced their sales metrics. To address this, Digitas turned to Criteo’s Commerce Growth solutions, which offer a suite of tools designed to drive customer acquisition and retention across both digital and in-store platforms.

Measure advertising effectiveness via Criteo

Use advanced analytics for robust insights
Digitas needed to design an incrementality test in partnership with Criteo to evaluate the effectiveness of the brand's advertising strategies. This involved establishing a control and test group among their customer base. The objective was to provide clear, measurable insights into how Criteo's ads impacted the client's sales and customer engagement. By assigning shoppers randomly into two groups, with Group A receiving regular advertisements and Group B having advertising efforts suppressed, it aimed to capture the differential impact of Criteo's marketing technology. The task necessitated precise coordination and implementation of Criteo's advanced analytics tools to ensure accuracy and reliability of the results.

Measured KPIs over a three-week period
Criteo executed the incrementality test utilizing their 'ghost bids' methodology, which allowed them to deliver advertisements to Group A in the usual manner while all marketing efforts were stopped for Group B after a two-week ad-cleansing period. This approach ensured that Group B had no recent exposure to the client's ads. Over a subsequent three-week testing phase, Criteo collected extensive KPIs, including user engagement, conversion rates, and revenue data. This real-time, data-driven strategy provided detailed insights into consumer behavior in response to advertising tactics, enabling Criteo to accurately assess the true incremental value their ads contributed to the client's overall marketing strategy.
