The ads, however, haven’t reached their full potential, because clear brand cues were missing at the top moments of the ads.
“Thanks to data, we know how to improve branding next time.”
4. Outcome
Decathlon knew the exact impact of their campaign on their brand salience, a key figure to estimate their long-term return on advertising spend. Also, they knew what to focus on in the creative development of their next campaign to get even better performance.
