Objective
Exceed Efficiencies of Their Display Campaign and Retarget on the TV Screen
Northline Express was seeing positive results from their display-only campaigns but were looking to add another performance channel that could deliver comparable results. They tapped MNTN to shift some of their budget from the computer screen to the TV screen and explore the benefits of CTV. They wanted to be up and running before their busiest time of year and were hoping that CTV would be at least as efficient as their retargeting across display.
Solutions
Performance TV Retargeting
Northline Express used Performance TV paired with MNTN Multi-Touch ads to retarget website visitors, increasing conversions and average order value compared to display alone. Performance TV allowed them to not only use the information from their first-party pixel, but to segment the data to get hyper-specific. They were able to target by time spent on site, number of pages visited, and more to drive the most effective results.
MNTN Multi-Touch allowed them to make the most of their non-video assets, reaching viewers on a secondary device with a Northline Express ad. Pairing MNTN Multi-Touch and Connected TV is more effective at driving conversions than display alone.
And they were able to get the campaign set up quickly, ahead of a key sales period. The set-up was as easy as uploading their creative, setting their targeting parameters, and launching. This means that they were live and gathering real-time data before heading into fireplace season.
Northline Express launched their first CTV initiative with peace of mind thanks to MNTN’s Living Room Quality, which ensured that their ads only ran on top-tier streaming networks, exclusively on TV screens, not mobile or desktop inventory. As first-time CTV purchasers, this gave them the assurance that their budget would be spent on inventory that provided a premium TV advertising experience.
They were able to easily measure the success of their CTV campaigns in real-time with the MNTN reporting suite. From site visits to return on ad spend, they could keep track of their most important KPIs. Additionally, MNTN’s integration with Google Analytics made it easy for them to compare the results of their CTV campaign alongside their other performance channels.
The Results
Higher Than Targeted Return on Ad Spend
Northline Express were able to launch in September, ahead of their busy winter season. Performance TV created efficiencies that outpaced their display-only campaign, resulting in a 12x return-on-ad-spend and outperformed their initial ROAS goal by 142%. With these results, Northline Express was able to allocate more budget to CTV and continued to exceed their display ROAS. On average, Performance TV generates 35% more conversions and 54% lower cost per acquisition than a display-only strategy; Northline Express was no exception to the CTV effect.

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.
