The challenge

A North American lead-generation network wanted more people to see lead-generation offers, in United States, Canada, without a big media budget or a marketing team running it every day.

What they did

  • Ran 17 campaigns on Pop-under, split by offer and country.
  • Used a fixed price, so every impression cost the same and the budget was fully predictable.
  • Capped frequency on all campaigns so the same person didn't see the ad too often.
  • Blocked weak placements with a block list on 12 of 17 campaigns.
  • Used day-parting on 6 of 17 campaigns to run only in the best hours.
  • Turned on AI optimization on 15 of 17 campaigns to shift budget toward what worked.
