Target Audience
Movado’s campaign targeted a diverse group of male and female adults aged 25-50. These consumers typically fall within mid to high-income brackets and reside in the top six metropolitan areas. The audience is discerning and likely appreciates the finer things in life, including luxury travel and high-end shopping.
Campaign Goals
The primary objectives of the campaign were to boost brand awareness and consideration among potential buyers. Movado aimed to engage with an audience that values luxury and style, aligning perfectly with the brand’s image.
Challenge
The campaign faced two significant challenges:
- The click-through rate (CTR) for advertisements placed on business and fashion websites was falling below industry benchmarks.
- The cost per thousand impressions (CPM) on YouTube was three times higher than the predetermined benchmarks, affecting the budget efficiency.
Solution
To address these challenges, the following optimizations were implemented:
Introduction of in-market targeting for luxury travelers and luxury shoppers on business and fashion websites, which boosted the CTR by 50%.
The elimination of placement targeting on YouTube, which effectively reduced the CPM to meet the benchmarks.
Results
The campaign achieved impressive results over its 45-day duration with a budget of 1.8 million dollars:
YouTube: Achieved 88% reach within the target group (TG) with an average monthly frequency of 2 to 3 views per person and an average CTR of 0.28%.
Websites (Business, News, Fashion, and Sports): Recorded an average CTR of 0.44% across these platforms with an average monthly frequency of 3 to 4 views per person and an average cost per click (CPC) of $8.
Conclusion
Movado’s performance marketing campaign effectively leveraged digital platforms to enhance brand visibility and customer engagement. Through strategic targeting and timely optimizations, the campaign not only overcame initial setbacks but also set a benchmark in precision marketing within the luxury watch category.
This initiative demonstrates the power of adaptive digital marketing strategies in today’s competitive landscape, ensuring that Movado remains a top choice among luxury watch enthusiasts.
