A Completely New Solution
for Performance Marketing.
We decided on a combination of celebrity and performance videos: Celebrity Performance Video.
Problem Statement
Seekho wanted a solution that would improve the ad fatigue duration while consistently achieving low CAC.
- 01
Quick Fatigue
With very high monthly ad spends, the fatigue duration of ads was very low. All ads would stop giving results in about 2 weeks.
- 02
Low Scalability
The creatives were not unlocking new audiences.
- 03
High CAC
As a result of these, Seekho had a high CAC.
Possible Solution
For quick conversions, performance videos are essential!
To overcome the problem of trust, either a brand video or a known face is important. Using a known and relatable face also brings higher conversions.
We decided on a combination of celebrity and performance videos: Celebrity Performance Video, a new approach to performance marketing.
Now, the problem was to find a face and a personality that would resonate with Seekho’s audience.
What Mandar meant to Seekho’s audience
We listed out the personality traits that were relatable for Seekho’s TG and shortlisted celebrities. To test the best face from this list, we did an internal survey and performed online A/B Testing.
Mandar Chandwadkar is a highly recognised face for his portrayal of Atmaram Tukaram Bhide from Taarak Mehta ka Ooltah Chashmah - a small-town middle class teacher who values education highly.
- 01
there is high value for money
- 02
the content is explained to the audience by a person who belongs to the same socio-economic class and mindset
- 03
a teacher is explaining to them about the courses which would increase the significance of Seekho’s courses significantly
Final Campaign
This campaign helped Seekho with unlocking new geographies including Gujarat, Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh.
THE NUMBERS
Ads ran for 9 weeks straight with high performance
Reduced CAC by 30%
Nearly 1/5th of their total monthly ad spend was spent on only this Campaign for 2 months
On the same hypothesis, we repeated
the campaign with other popular faces.
