THE CHALLENGE
Overcoming the holiday slump and increased competition

Midland, an industry leader in radio communication technology, traditionally saw slower sales during the peak holiday months of November and December. The company was actively seeking ways to revitalize its search performance, which had been on a downward trajectory. Competing brands were investing heavily in advertising and securing a substantial share of voice in the market. Midland had experimented with a small DSP (Demand Side Platform) budget in the past but had not committed to a larger strategy.

THE SOLUTION
An innovative strategy to capture attention during the holidays

Recognizing the opportunity to stand out in a crowded holiday market, we recommended that Midland test Streaming TV (STV) video ads. STV ads, with their engaging visuals and audio, offer a compelling way to capture audience attention. By taking full ownership of the campaign, we were able to leverage our strong relationships and collaborate closely with Amazon for seamless execution.

In addition to STV, it was recommended that Midland utilize DSP retargeting campaigns to further amplify brand awareness and drive sales. The goal was to reach potential customers who had previously interacted with Midland’s brand but had not yet converted, providing a strategic push to drive additional conversions during a typically lower-selling period.

THE RESULT
Proving the power of video ads for holiday results

The advertising campaign generated 1.6 million ad impressions for Midland during the holiday season. These impressions led to 200 branded searches, demonstrating strong consumer interest and an increased awareness of Midland's products. Additionally, the campaign received 2,300 detail page views. 84% of orders came from customers who were new to the brand, demonstrating successful customer acquisition. By leveraging STV and DSP retargeting, Midland was able to break through the noise of the busy holiday season, regain lost ground in search performance and deliver significant business results.
