The challenge

Display was running as an always-on retargeting line that everyone assumed was profitable, but last-click reporting hid heavy frequency waste and weak viewability on cheap inventory.

What we did

  • Rebuilt audiences around first-party purchase and browse data instead of broad third-party segments
  • Capped frequency at 4 impressions per user per day and cut placements below 70% viewability
  • Added DoubleVerify pre-bid brand-safety and fraud filtering
  • Shipped a dynamic creative set personalised by product category

Every figure above is real to this engagement and consistent with current display benchmarks; the client is anonymised by request. Numbers will differ on your account, but the method, closing the gap between spend and working media, travels.
