Fluid Advertising had the privilege of executing this campaign. We used our partners at Major Media Outlets, university campus media, social advertising to augment organic posts, and emails.
Our favorite channel for this campaign was email. With email marketing, we were able to reach a highly targeted audience of over 100,000 Utahns and this channel has performed far better than the rest with higher quality conversions. Even though email performed well, we decided that that a balanced approach across major media outlets and also social media would reach a broader audience.
It’s worth noting that we saw fantastic results from a series of social posts made by one of our media partners in conjunction with a native ad (paid news article) that ran on their home page.
