How audience targeting boosted brand awareness by 20%

Brief
A newly launched premium paint brand aimed to execute a high-impact campaign with a dual objective:

– to reach the relevant audience for the brand
– to establish strong brand recall through a focused branding initiative.

To meet these goals, the Adgebra team proposed an innovative, data-driven approach that combined two powerful strategies:
Click Affinity and Retargeting.

Click Affinity Strategy: The campaign strategically targeted users who had previously engaged with
realestate-related advertisements within the Adgebra network. This audience segment, referred to as “real estate clickers,” includes individuals who have demonstrated a clear interest in the real estate
category by interacting with different ads from multiple real estate brands across our ecosystem.

Ad format : Native

Retargeting Strategy: We specifically targeted users who had previously engaged with this brand’s
advertisements by clicking on them. This was accomplished using the Click Affinity strategy, which
allowed us to identify and re-engage high-intent users based on their past interaction patterns in the previous campaign.

Click Affinity & Retargeting

Adgebra executed a high-impact campaign for a newly launched premium paint brand using a dual strategy of Click Affinity and Retargeting. The Native Ad Campaign, targeting users who had previously interacted with real estate ads, achieved 81 million impressions, a 0.40% click-through rate (CTR), and ~325,000 clicks over 90 days in metro cities. 

Simultaneously, the Rich Media Ad Campaign focused on retargeting users who had engaged with the brand’s earlier ads, delivering 8 million impressions, a 3.4% engagement rate, and 272,000 total engagements across metro cities in India. Together, the strategies drove both awareness and strong brand recall effectively.


Post completion of both the campaigns, the brand ran an independent Brand Lift Study that resulted in 20% higher brand awareness among the exposed group.
