“JustPremium generated excellent CTRs but what really separated them was the quality of those clicks. Users had a longer average time on our site than any other high impact partner we have worked with before and exhibited the lowest bounce rates. Desktop CTRs were 24x higher than the IAB average.”

The Challenge
To break through the clutter during the busiest quarter of the year for retailers. To tackle this challenge they needed a high-impact campaign that reached users wherever they were, caught their attention, and created excitement about the upcoming release of the new phone.
Campaign Goals
The KPIs were aligned with the awareness and consideration goals of the campaign:
- Inspire users to click through and see more about the product (CTR).
- Once directed to a landing page, they desired users to sign up using their email.
Creative Strategy
Video and 360 assets that showcased the phone’s features were included in each format to increase interaction with the creative and support Ad Recall that is essential for any brand awareness campaign.
Reach and Scale
JustPremium's Premier Network Unlocks Effective Scale With Ease
A multiple format strategy, which ran on both Desktop and Mobile inventory, was the best solution for broad reach across devices on premium publishers.
Format Strategy
Desktop Skin
In order to maximize the time that the creative was in view, the best choice for this was the Desktop Skin. The creative fully surrounds publisher content with Rich Media elements including stunning promotional videos of the razr.
Mobile Skin
JustPremium’s exclusive Mobile Skin was chosen to give users on mobile a unique experience that features three interactive elements that slide in and out of view as the user scrolls: one in the header, one mid-page, and one in the footer.
Desktop Footer
This format is uniquely adept as it stays in-view throughout the user’s visit to the page meaning it encourages high Viewability and time in-view metrics. Beyond that, the creative also expands upon hovering to reveal Rich Video elements.
Cascade
The Cascade ad was implemented on both Desktop and Mobile and features “book-end” elements that appear around the content from the header first and then the footer as the user scrolls.
