Inaugural campaign acquires new customers despite challenging environment

Subscription Services

Streaming service expanded audience with direct mail amid market challenges

After relying on digital marketing channels for initial brand growth, this streaming service wanted to expand brand awareness and reach their untapped audience, offline. Through data partnerships and comprehensive analytics, Franklin Madison Direct was able to append a physical address from the streaming brand’s customer email addresses to build highly targeted prospect lookalike models. Although the campaign launched in the early stages of the coronavirus pandemic, the data-driven strategy succeeded in bolstering the brand’s consumer activity and customer acquisition. The initial test achieved a rollout CPA of $37 – well within the brand’s objective – and set the streaming service up to optimize the performance of future campaigns.

The Problem

Relying solely on digital marketing, the streaming service needed an offline strategy to increase brand awareness and customer reach.

The Solution

FM Direct used data appending and lookalike modeling to create a highly targeted direct mail campaign for customer acquisition.

The Outcome

The campaign acquired 1,550+ new subscribers, achieved a $37 CPA, and set up future optimizations.
