Run a display survey to measure brand/category interest. Retarget high interest respondents with video ads simultaneously.
Add a shopping engagement experience to your video to drive immediate action.
Gauge intent and retarget 2-4 star intenders with ads that entice trial or offers. Retarget high intenders with loyalty messages or incentives.
Retarget viewers that completed your video with another video ad that highlights a different brand value. Add a series of display ads with a strong call to action.
