OMD/Omnicom achieves 8% ROAS Increase for Philips Utilizing Skai’s Strategic Budget Management and Dayparting

Philips, a pioneer in the electronics industry, encountered a hurdle demanding innovative solutions. Several campaigns were exhausting their budgets prematurely, resulting in missed opportunities for substantial revenue generation. This was happening specifically in peak evening hours. Collaborating closely with OMD/Omnicom, their esteemed global media agency partner, Philips looked to resolve this issue.

Through their strategic collaboration, Philips and OMD/Omnicom harnessed the power of Skai’s cutting-edge platform, leveraging its best-in-class solutions to meticulously implement a comprehensive strategy focused on precision budget management and intricate dayparting.

The following steps were undertaken:

1. Budget Estimation: OMD/Omnicom utilized Skai’s ‘Retail Media Campaigns Out of Budget by Hour of Day’ scheduled report to assess the frequency and impact of campaigns exceeding budget. This report allowed them to quantify the potential revenue loss due to campaigns running out of budget. By calculating the cost of maintaining campaign activity per hour, OMD/Omnicom determined the incremental budget required to extend campaign runtime during peak periods, thereby maximizing potential revenue.
2. Dayparting Strategy: Leveraging Skai’s Dayparting feature, OMD/Omnicom strategically scheduled campaigns to align with high-converting periods. A baseline setting was established, pausing campaigns from certain hours when purchase rates were historically lower. This optimized budget allocation during times of low conversion potential.

The implementation of the optimized strategy yielded promising results, particularly benefiting smaller countries and categories with limited budgets:

• ROAS Increase: The smaller countries and categories observed a significant 8% increase in Return on Ad Spend (ROAS).
• CPC Reduction: The Cost Per Click decreased by 5%.

This improvement was a direct result of the enhanced budget management and strategic dayparting, ensuring campaigns were active during high-converting hours.
