The challenge

A toy store wanted more people to see holiday toy deals, in India, Bangladesh, Nepal, without a big media budget or a marketing team running it every day.

What they did

  • Ran 6 campaigns on Pop-under and Push.
  • Used Smart pricing: PPCmate set the price per impression automatically to win the right traffic.
  • Capped frequency on all campaigns so the same person didn't see the ad too often.
  • Blocked weak placements with a block list on 4 of 6 campaigns.
  • Kept spend on proven placements with an allow list on 2 of 6 campaigns.
  • Used day-parting on 4 of 6 campaigns to run only in the best hours.
  • Adjusted bids per traffic source with Source Bids on 3 of 6 campaigns.
