Growing Customer Stickiness with SmartLinks-Enhanced QR Codes

VERTICAL: Food & Drink   |   SOLUTION: QR Codes, SmartLinks™

TAKEAWAYS
SmartLinks-Enhanced Experience Correlates with:
Data gathered from May 2023 –
June 2023 based on Kochava measurment metrics.

Focus Brands is a leading developer of global, multi-channel Fast Casual brands such as Cinnabon, Jamba, Auntie Anne’s, McAlister’s Deli, and Schlotzky’s. Their collection of brands is united under one company that’s leading the industry through product innovation, cutting edge business practices and an expansive media presence.

Challenge

Focus Brands sought to enhance its mobile ordering capabilities and augment overall user engagement with its mobile apps. Given the extensive presence of locations, the marketing team contemplated strategies to incentivize customers towards utilizing the app during their in-store visits.

Solution

Focus Brands successfully implemented Kochava mobile measurement solutions into their entire portfolio of mobile apps, enabling them to achieve comprehensive and precise omni-channel measurement and attribution data across their entire range of apps and marketing campaigns within a unified platform.

Once integrated, Focus Brands strategically utilized Kochava SmartLinks™ technology to extract invaluable insights regarding customer engagement derived from their QR codes, across all U.S. locations and QR code placements (eg, packaged goods, in-store signage, point-of-sale labeling). This allowed them to connect the dots between a QR scan to an app install as well as any defined down-funnel in-app engagement.

Seeking to optimize the utilization of QR codes, the marketing team aimed to ascertain the precise areas within their stores where QR codes were scanned. By placing QR codes on in-store signage, strategically positioning them at the checkout counters and dining tables, Focus Brands could effectively pinpoint the precise locations where customers exhibited the highest level of interaction with QR codes, thereby discerning the impact it had on enhancing in-app engagement.

Impact

Through careful analysis, Focus Brands observed that the strategic placement of QR codes for certain brands on tables yielded significantly higher levels of customer engagement compared to QR codes positioned at the registers. This observation provided valuable insights to the marketing team, enabling them to optimize the placement of QR codes within their stores for maximum effectiveness. This strategic realignment of QR code positions correlated with a notable increase in overall customer loyalty sign
ups and stickiness.

“Kochava SmartLinks give us a new level of visibility into how our QR code placements in-store and across other mediums drive mobile app adoption and increased customer stickiness. Our distribution strategy for QR codes is now much more data driven and we’re seeing direct results in the form of increased engagement.”

CASE STUDY

Spotify Drives Incremental Lift for McDonald’s with Custom Campaign Strategy

VERTICAL: Streaming & QSR   |   SOLUTION: Kochava Foundry, MediaLift

TAKEAWAYS

McDonald’s Australia partnered with Spotify to explore customer streaming behaviors in order to improve campaign targeting to increase engagement and conversions in the MyMacca’s app. The data empowered the Spotify Research team to perform custom behavioral analysis and segment users into a variety of key target audiences (Gen Z, Families, Families in Car, etc.) for campaign activation.

Challenge

Spotify ran a multi-media campaign for McDonald’s, targeting the audience segments curated from the custom behavioral analysis. Spotify users were served a combination of audio, video, and creative display ads for McDonald’s.
With millions of impressions delivered, McDonald’s needed to understand the incremental lift impact of the Spotify campaign strategy on conversions in the MyMacca’s Rewards app.

Solution

McDonald’s looked to Kochava, the mobile measurement partner (MMP) trusted for monitoring performance of their mobile app properties worldwide. McDonald’s Australia leverages the Kochava platform to measure installs and in-app events (including Registrations and Orders) within the MyMacca’s app.

To assess the true incremental lift of this customized Spotify campaign strategy, Kochava’s internal team of data scientists and analysts, Kochava Foundry, dissected the Spotify campaign impression data and holistic MyMacca’s app activity data. Leveraging proprietary methodologies, Kochava Foundry segmented the test group exposed to the campaign and then modeled a forensic control group of lookalike users who were not touched by the campaign. Differences in down-funnel conversion performance within the MyMacca’s app were analyzed between the test group and modeled control group to determine the incrementality of the campaign.

Impact

The MediaLift study by Kochava Foundry demonstrated that the custom Spotify campaign produced positive incremental lift in driving new rewards registrations and overall food and drink orders in the MyMacca’s app. Nuances were also observed in performance response across target audiences, with Gen Z and Families significantly outperforming. Additional insights were uncovered related to creative exposure variations (video overlay, audio, display) and impression frequency impact on performance. The collective learnings will inform ongoing campaigns for maximum performance as the joint partnership grows.

“This was such a uniquely tailored campaign strategy for McDonald’s and we were thrilled Kochava Foundry was able to independently analyze the incremental impact of the effort.”

CASE STUDY

Leading Outdoor Advertising Company Delivers Incremental Lift Measured by Kochava

VERTICAL: FOOD & DRINK   |   SOLUTION: MEDIALIFT™, FOUNDRY, OOH MEASUREMENT

TAKEAWAYS
ClearChannel Takeaway
ClearChannelTakeaway

CHALLENGE
A top food and drink delivery service wanted to boost in-app order revenue through an out-of-home (OOH) campaign with one of the top outdoor advertising companies. The campaign spanned over 140 billboards across major designated market areas (DMAs) in the southeast United States and the marketing team wanted to understand the incremental lift driven by the effort.

SOLUTION
The outdoor advertising agency partnered with Kochava Foundry™ to leverage Kochava MediaLift™ solutions and provide an independent incremental lift measurement for the campaign. Kochava onboarded OOH billboard exposure data to log devices that came into the viewable range of the billboards during the timeframe of the campaign run.

Devices exposed to the campaign were then analyzed against new and repeat order transactions within the delivery service’s mobile apps.

To eliminate unwanted bias in the incremental lift calculations, MediaLift™’s proprietary device scoring technology was utilized to model a forensic control group of like devices from amongst billions of device profiles. These devices were not exposed to the OOH campaign in any way. Performance lift was calculated by analyzing the exposed devices against the modeled forensic control.

Location Data

IMPACT
Kochava Foundry™ analyzed over 740k billboard exposures and 200k+ devices across multiple DMAs. The resulting analysis proved the outdoor advertising company’s campaign drove a 31% lift in first-time orders and an even greater lift in repeat orders. The data helped the outdoor advertising company and the food delivery service understand the optimal billboard exposure frequency as well as the highest performing DMAs, providing valuable insights to optimize future campaigns.
