Key Results
BetterHelp initially launched their campaign on Rokt with the goal of driving new customer acquisitions at an efficient CPA goal. While their initial offer resonated with customers actively spending across Rokt’s premium ecommerce inventory, they wanted to rapidly improve their performance and understand how they could best scale their acquisitions across Rokt’s high value audience.
With the knowledge that exclusive offers perform best on Rokt’s direct-response ad placements, BetterHelp quickly deployed an improved offer only available on Rokt. Their strategy saw immediate success with conversion rates improving by 2x, resulting in CPAs that were more efficient than their goal. To scale the great performance they were seeing, BetterHelp leveraged Rokt’s Smart Bidding tool which further improved efficiency and helped rapidly increase their monthly conversions.
