IT Cosmetics, a L'Oréal brand, was looking to leverage samples of their #1 best-selling product, CC+ Cream with SPF 50+ to drive new consumer acquisition. The brand partnered with abeo by Sampler to distribute 38,000 samples to target users on Instagram and Facebook through the in-platform lead ad. abeo by Sampler seamlessly collected consumer data and insights, brand opt-ins, and managed fulfillment and shipping of the samples.
The Campaign: In partnership with IT Cosmetics’ agency, the campaign reached targeted consumers on Instagram and Facebook with a free sample offer. Following sample redemption, abeo by Sampler deployed an email campaign designed to meet IT Cosmetics’ specific goals:
email 1 | welcome/order confirmation: drove to a video featuring a consumer’s product experience, framing a positive introduction to the brand and product.
email 2 | education/shipping: included instructions on how to use the sample, driving to the product page for further information. The addition of a real consumer review built excitement for the sample arrival.
email 3 | primary conversion: post sample trial, we thanked the consumer for their participation with an exclusive offer, influencing full-size purchase.
email 4 | secondary conversion: consumers who were highly engaged received an email measuring their interest in purchasing the full-size product and reminding them to redeem their exclusive offer.
The sampling campaign was successful in driving new consumer acquisition, adding 25,827 consumer contacts to the IT Cosmetics CRM database for further brand communications.
The campaign generated 1,802,574 impressions on Instagram and Facebook and was successful in driving quality engagement with consumers and creating significant consideration from target demographics.
We keep choosing abeo by Sampler again and again to partner with for our sampling programs as they not only have capabilities that meet our business needs in a competitive market, but also have an extremely capable team that is a pleasure to work with and stays on top of things.
