Serving Interactive Audio Ads on Gaana app for Swiggy drives substantial engagement!
Challenge
The primary goal of this campaign was to utilize new types of inventory to reach out to new users and drive engagement.
Interactive voice ads are an ad type that is bleeding edge ad delivery technology and isn't something that's commonly used by advertisers worldwide.
The expected outcome of these unique new campaigns was to drive higher engagement as compared to the traditional ad formats.
Approach
Concept
We served ads on the Gaana app that featured a female artist mentioning that a user can talk to the ad. After initiating the conversation and asking the user if he/she's interested, the ad then listens to the voice of the user and responds accordingly.
If the user responds positively, like "Yes" or "Tell me more", the ad then responds accordingly and opens the Swiggy app for the user, directly taking him to the final offer page from where orders can be placed.
If the user responds negatively, like "Not now" or "Remind me later", the user is then retargeted with a second sequence of voice ads.
Execution
The ad type used is audio. The subsequent sequences of the ad were delivered basis vocal responses received by the end-user. The ad used the microphone permissions granted to the Gaana app, to listen to user commands and respond to each type of answer with contextual and pinpoint precision.
This intelligent ad format also auto-negated users who responded with a strong "No" and didn't retarget them via any future voice ad sequences.
Results
Engaged users of the voice ad replied positively and Redirected to the app page
Retargeted users engaged with the voice ad (Gave vocal responses)
In-App Sessions were driven from Voice Activated Campaigns
