Adknowledge Asia Achieves More Than Double Instagram Engagement Results Through Renowned European Cosmetic Brand in Korea
SEOUL, South Korea, Nov. 13, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
A major European cosmetic company has delved into Instagram advertising in South Korea with a highly targeted campaign that is already producing industry-leading results.
Spearheaded by Adknowledge's new AdParlor software, the two-week Instagram campaign targeted female's aged 18-42 and resulted in ad visibility of 189% over the expected results at 1.1 million to-date.
The overall campaign click through rate (CTR) of 0.78% exceeded the expected results and is significantly higher than the average health and beauty industry standard at 0.4%. The KPI achieved was exceeded, sitting at 100% before the campaign ended.
Jong Min Kim, our Country Director of Adknowledge Asia - Korea said, "We are happy to support the first Instagram campaign with MABLE with great results. Now we see many brand advertisers in the Korean market looking for advertising opportunities on Instagram combined with Facebook, that actually helps them reach out to a more fashionable, trendy, and young audience."
The campaign objective was to gain a wider Instagram following and to build a relationship with younger consumers and brand ambassadors. When compared to other social campaigns, they found a significantly higher participation rate and a substantial performance increase.
The campaign was run through AdParlor by MABLE, a Korean media company which concentrates on social media planning for both Facebook and Instagram.
Seong Bok Ji, Team Head of New Media Business Development, MABLE, quoted: " Our client already has many products that Instagram users love to share, but by better utilising the visual aspects of the products, we aimed to target and engage with a wider audience of younger Instagram users. This ad campaign has successfully driven this objective and will help us to maintain followers and build relationships with them through Instagram in the long-term."
