The challenge
A no-code app builder wanted more people to see free trials, in India, United States, United Kingdom, without a big media budget or a marketing team running it every day.
What they did
- Ran 20 campaigns on Display, split by offer and country.
- Used a fixed price, so every impression cost the same and the budget was fully predictable.
- Capped frequency on 5 of 20 campaigns so the same person didn't see the ad too often.
