time targeting – cricket match days

execution

since the brand wanted users to interact with the ad between innings, the ad deployed time targeting and ran only from the 15th over of the first innings to the beginning of the second innings.
users were prompted to use the innings break wisely by tapping on the campaign CTA ‘WhatsApp Now’.
they were directed to the WhatsApp app, where they could interact with the brand directly and score great travel deals.

testimonial

Leveraging the popularity of the popular cricketing event, mCanvas helped us deploy time targeting and reach users only while the matches were on. The customized CTA was highly effective in capturing interested users. Working with the Logicserve Digital and mCanvas teams was seamless, and we are pleased with the results.
