The marketing team at DECKED spent time building detailed personas for two key audiences — Truck Owners & Enthusiasts, and Construction Workers & Contractors. Once each audience’s set of affinities, purchase histories, and behaviors were defined, they set out to run an A/B test designed to discover which audience would visit their site and convert after watching their CTV ads. The brand turned to MNTN Performance TV to effectively build and test both of their detailed audiences — allowing them to focus their efforts on learning effectively and driving results.

Objective
Discover their Most Valuable Audience
The team at DECKED was searching for a better way to conduct outcome-based A/B tests with Connected TV. This meant finding a CTV platform that optimized campaigns towards site visits with accurate attribution and gave them the freedom to build and test complex audiences without incurring data premiums that cut into their ability to drive performance. It also meant ensuring their ads only served on premier networks on CTV devices to preserve brand equity and keep inventory quality consistent for their test.
MNTN Performance TV was the ideal platform to achieve the team’s goals, thanks to its ability to serve ads exclusively on top-tier CTV streaming channels, automated optimization towards outcomes, patent-pending attribution, and ability to target any combination of its thousands of third party consumer segments without fees thanks to MNTN’s unique audience suite.

DonorsChoose
DonorsChoose is a nonprofit organization (NPO) that helps public school teachers across the country crowdsource much-needed school supplies for their students, with a focus on historically underfunded schools. While DonorsChoose successfully drives donations throughout the year, they’ve found that Q4 / the winter holidays is a peak time for giving. To ramp up performance prior to this particularly busy season, they wanted to test a fresh advertising channel that would allow them to reach new audiences, ultimately driving more donations. In partnership with their agency M+R, DonorsChoose looked for an advertising solution that was flexible and would give them the ability to integrate reporting with third party platforms, while producing meaningful performance. M+R had successfully launched Connected TV (CTV) campaigns for other clients and thought it could be a great option for DonorsChoose, as well, but the channel alone wasn’t enough. To meet DonorsChoose’s unique needs and ensure the best results possible, M+R turned to MNTN Performance TV.

In search of a fresh advertising channel that was as innovative as their products, GoMacro enlisted the help of digital marketing agency Cuker.

Together, GoMacro and Cuker turned to MNTN Performance TV to ensure the success of their CTV efforts.

AdParlor
Like any good hero’s journey, this story starts with a challenge — and a longstanding health and beauty brand had a big one. The brand was preparing a robust omnichannel rebranding initiative, and the CMO was determined to make Connected TV (CTV) an important cornerstone of the campaign, which led them to MNTN Performance TV. But while the brand’s team were performance marketers themselves, they had less experience running media for this relatively new channel and found they needed support to ensure CTV would be ready to launch with the rest of their mix. As the brand approached its deadline for launching ads, they reached out to AdParlor — a flexible and successful digital agency with performance marketing experience — to see if they’d be willing to jump in at the 11th hour and help. The retailer was already collaborating with AdParlor on other performance channels, so they knew the agency was deeply familiar with their customer base and could be trusted. Would they be willing to take the keys to MNTN Performance TV — a platform that the agency was unfamiliar with — and learn how to use it so they could get the ads up in time for a strict go-live date? AdParlor was up for the challenge. And thanks to MNTN Performance TV’s self-serve platform, they didn’t just save the day — they soared past their client’s expectations.
