THE CHALLENGE
Gumtree already had one retargeting provider deployed before meeting with RTB House. The challenge was to find new ways to drive more traffic back to the website, activate lapsed users and increase existing user activity. Effective conversion meant getting results for Gumtree’s two primary revenue streams: increased number of ads and a larger number of promoted posts.
THE SOLUTION
RTB House team proposed an effective combination: add another retargeter and leverage deep learning technology to drive more conversions with the same ad spend. Unlike other retargeting providers, RTB House offered to deliver highly personalized messages to most-likely-to-convert users in real-time, at various stages of their shopping journey.
- Implemented multiple retargeting strategies
- Segmented and targeted users on multiple touch-points within their customer journey
- Launched in-app campaign and introduced a unified retargeting strategy across mobile and web
- Optimized for the most efficient CPA and the highest scale
THE RESULTS
Deploying the multiple retargeting strategies with Gumtree’s campaigns doubled conversion efficiency and improved traffic efficiency by 1/3. The contributing factors towards the success of multiple retargeting includes:
- Multiple retargeters win more auctions for high-value users
- Deep learning technology drives more personalized creatives at the right time
- Exclusive partnerships with supply partners opened up new user pools
Gumtree continues to use multiple retargeting strategies that leverage different technologies and algorithms at the same time. It delivers not only outstanding performance results but also greater reach, efficiency, and transparency among technology vendors.
