Campaign goals

A leading telco brand partnered with eBay to drive high-quality leads at scale to their website, to re-target and convert into loyal customers.

Solution

A series of campaigns were designed to address all stages of the buying journey—from raising awareness to building interest, and ultimately capturing leads.

Brand awareness

Through consecutive offer-based advertisements, the brand elevated their messaging with high-impact placements across eBay’s homepage. Their sponsorship during Back to School allowed them to own this key retail moment and drive to a seasonal hub.

Driving engagement

Utilizing eBay’s contextual and behavioral targeting, the brand ran ads across eBay to reach heavy data users and comedy enthusiasts in their campaign.
