The Challenge

Cremo, a modern grooming brand, sought an effective strategy to increase awareness and sales of its new products among existing Cremo shoppers, both on Amazon and elsewhere, while also acquiring new customers interested in antiperspirant deodorants.

The Process

The Blue Wheel team launched three STV campaigns for Cremo. We were able to track the Page Views of users who were exposed to these campaigns and subsequently visited a Cremo product page on Amazon in addition to Cremo’s DTC site. The Brand Lift study indicated that Cremo streaming TV ads had a significant impact on audiences, helping drive overall success.

1

Adding Amazon Ad Tag

To support Cremo’s upper-funnel strategy, we first implemented the Amazon Ad Tag on the Cremo DTC site, allowing us to accurately track sales attributed to Amazon campaigns.

Creating Custom Audiences

We then developed Custom Audiences tailored to high-value segments, including past Cremo purchasers, competitor brand buyers, and known high-value customers, to ensure we targeted users most likely to convert.

Crafting a Streaming TV Deal

Leveraging Amazon shopper insights, we partnered with Amazon’s deal teams to craft a curated streaming TV (STV) deal. This package was informed by viewership data from existing Cremo customers and in-market audiences, aligning ad placements with relevant streaming content.

Employing a 3rd Party Brand Lift Study

To measure the impact, we executed a full-funnel measurement plan that included a 3rd party Brand Lift study, Amazon DSP platform data, & Amazon Marketing Cloud analysis, providing valuable insights into the campaign’s influence on brand perception as well as bottom funnel activity.

The Solutions

Blue Wheel addressed Cremo’s challenges and goals by developing and executing a high-impact brand awareness campaign that leveraged Amazon data and streaming TV capabilities. This allowed for tracking ad-attributed sales on both Amazon and Cremo’s direct-to-consumer site. The strategy was chosen due to Cremo already having a strong brand presence and an established shopper base on Amazon. For the product launch, the focus was on utilizing upper-funnel awareness-driving tactics.

Amazon offered unique inventory options, such as Prime Video, along with valuable shopper purchase data and detailed audience insights. Additionally, Amazon provided closed-loop measurement to help understand how tactics like streaming TV (STV) drive sales on their platform and influence lower-funnel activations.
