The Challenge

Our client wanted to push traditional boundaries to create a truly unique, attentiongrabbing ad campaign that would prompt prospective customers to learn more. M/A/R/C® recommended an iterative, agile approach to deliver in-depth consumer feedback much faster and efficiently than their prior conventional ad testing approach.

Our client turned to us to:

Understand the effects of various visual elements on consumer preference and emotional breakthrough.

Determine the most impactful creative executions based on appeal, uniqueness, and pet owners’ motivation to learn more.

The Solution

M/A/R/C® recommended agile approach featured three phases flexible, fast, with value that goes way beyond speed

Accelerated Implicit Sort

quickly determined how well 40 different types of visual elements delivered on emotional connection, uniqueness, and breakthrough.

Exploratory Interviews

provided in-depth insights into the most appealing combinations of specific elements, leading to the development of four creative executions for further validation.

Accelerated Ad Impact Measurement (AIM)

identified which of the executions were most successful in activating the desired actions and perceptions.

The Result

M/A/R/C® pinpointed the most effective combination of imagery, font, color, and copy points that delivered breakthrough with the target audience. Implicit metrics identified elements that conveyed a light-hearted tone while connecting on an emotional level. By comparing to success benchmarks, AIM identified the ads’ most effective at activating consumers’ behavior. The client successfully created ads that increased awareness and participation in their rewards program.
