Objective

GroupM needs to consistently adapt its approach in order to stay on top of macroeconomic challenges coupled with evolving industry requirements and changes in consumer behavior. The challenge is to ensure they’re consistently delivering high performing campaigns at every stage of the funnel for its clients.

GroupM partnered up with Smartly 7+ years ago to drive optimal business results more efficiently for their clients across campaign management, intelligence, and creative workflows. Smartly unifies the platforms into a single workflow that allows both GroupM’s creative and media specialists to work together on templates, data feeds, campaign setups and client approval. Today, GroupM and Smartly Champions have now trained over 50+ GroupM media and creative specialists in Smartly.

Solution

The impact on GroupM’s campaign management and performance for its clients has been tremendous. Producing and scaling authentic on-brand creatives across different advertising platforms and markets is time consuming - Smartly makes it efficient, and enables in-flight optimization. Once the campaign is live, GroupM uses Smartly’s creative iteration and intelligence to scale the most impactful dynamic creative and uses predictive algorithms to automatically adjust bids and budgets based on the metrics that matter most to their clients and improve performance.

For example, leveraging creative templatization, GroupM managed to reduce cost per click by 70% for their client ICI Paris XL. And by using Smartly campaign automation, they managed to re-invest 50% of the time savings into innovative optimizations for one of our biggest retail clients.
