Dentsu improves cost per purchase for TUI by 43% with Skai’s Weather-Based Automated Actions
Challenge
TUI, a prominent travel and tourism company based out of Austria, aimed to increase audience engagement and find efficiencies on Meta during their peak season. In partnership with their agency, Dentsu, they looked to Skai’s™ advanced Paid Social capabilities to deliver more personalized and contextually relevant ads in hopes of accomplishing this.
Solution
Dentsu knew that ad relevance played a key role in influencing user behavior, specifically that users may be more likely to engage with ads that reflected current weather conditions. Through Skai’s Weather-Based Automated Actions, they could provide their client with a unique solution to hopefully increase engagement on Meta while taking the user’s local weather into consideration.
Skai’s Weather-Based Automated Actions use weather conditions to automatically update ad statuses, bids, or budgets within specific geos based on weather events. For example, if the Weather-Based Automated Action was triggered by rainy weather in a user’s area, it would launch an ad that would suggest “Leave your umbrella at home.” Similarly, if clouds were forecasted, the ads that were launched would suggest “Grey clouds overhead? Time for a seaview.” This approach aimed to directly influence users’ emotions and purchase intent by aligning the ads with their current mood and surroundings. This innovative feature allowed TUI to integrate weather forecasts into their advertising strategy on Meta, revolutionizing the way they interacted with potential customers.
Results
By tailoring ad content to real-time weather conditions through Skai’s Weather-Based Automated Actions, Dentsu achieved impressive results. After only one month of running the campaign, they saw a 43% decrease in cost-per-purchase on ads triggered by rain and snow, and a 39% higher ROAS and 23% higher purchase value for ads triggered by snow.
“Skai’s Weather-Based Automated Actions have revolutionized the way we approach advertising strategies for our clients like TUI. By seamlessly integrating real-time weather data with tailored messaging, we’ve not only enhanced audience engagement but also achieved TUI’s goals with remarkable results.”
