Discover how ADA achieved 32X ROAS for Matahari using a zero-risk acquisition model, advanced analytics, and machine learning to optimise targeting strategies.

As a well-established brand, Matahari has continuously adapted to the changing landscape of commerce, particularly in the digital age.

Strategy

We employed advanced analytics and machine learning algorithms to better understand consumer behavior and optimize targeting strategies. These technologies enabled the campaign to identify high-potential customer segments and tailor marketing messages to their specific needs and preferences. Additionally, the use of dynamic pricing and personalized promotions helped attract and retain customers by offering them the best possible deals.​ to ensure higher relevance and conversion potential, the campaign targeted users interested in retail shopping, bargain hunting, and family-oriented activities. Additionally, an extensive inclusion strategy was employed by overlaying GAIDs (Google Advertising IDs) and IDFAs (Identifier for Advertisers) of existing customers with ADA's XACT, a data management platform, to refine the targeting accuracy.​

‍

The Results

ADA achieved +68% month-on-month transaction growth, maintained high customer retention rates, tripled average basket values, and achieved a 32X return on ad spend (ROAS) compared to previous campaigns. Through strategic cost optimization and effective Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO), ADA showcased its ability to deliver substantial ROI in a competitive market.
