Keys to success

Test, test, and test again

Invitly found that thorough testing was the key to success. In particular, A/B testing provided them with the data that they needed to ensure that they could meet their goals. By changing a single element each time (such as the image, text, or call-to-action) they were able to see exactly what made a difference to their campaign.

Create campaigns based on the target audience

Although Invitly were looking to target a specific demographic, they knew that this would involve several distinct audiences. They were able to tailor their campaign to each of these audiences by using features such as look-alike targeting and keyword targeting. They could maximise their response rates by seeing what worked best for each country and market segment.
