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.
