Objective

Zenith partnered with Smartly to relaunch a legacy product for an international quick service restaurant through a high-impact video brand campaign, maximizing visibility and media efficiency across social platforms.

Solution

Zenith leveraged Smartly’s Brand Pulse and AI-powered Cross-Channel Predictive Budget Allocation to optimize spend across social platforms in real time, while maximizing audience reach.

Using Smartly’s deduplicated reach and frequency measurement, Zenith had a clear, unified view of performance across channels in real-time. The team diversified the channel mix and optimised against a custom KPI, reallocating budgets automatically across channels to drive better outcomes.

This approach maximised audience exposure, reduced media waste, and delivered higher impact without increasing spend.

"Brand Pulse gave us the tools to do what's often impossible with brand campaigns—significantly expand reach and reduce cost per reach for a video campaign, all without increasing the budget. By diversifying the channel mix and reallocating spend in real time through Smartly's AI-powered optimization and predictive budget allocation, we successfully launched the new product and improved brand visibility at scale."
