Belong’s ambitious vision to redefine social connection experiences led to a collaboration with Favoured, a full-funnel marketing agency. The aim was to reinvigorate Belong’s presence in Dubai and establish its footprint in San Francisco and New York. Favoured’s campaign centred around innovative growth hacking techniques and data-driven creative strategies.
Belong’s initial foray into the market faced challenges due to a narrow focus on Facebook ads, resulting in suboptimal user acquisition and engagement. Identifying this, Favoured crafted a strategy to diversify the marketing mix and enhance user engagement.
Full-Funnel Marketing: The campaign targeted every stage of the user journey, from awareness to conversion, employing a mix of digital channels.
Creative Testing: A/B testing was rigorously applied to ad creatives, including static visuals, persuasive copy, and UGC videos, to determine the most effective content for each platform and audience segment.
Multi-Channel Presence: Favoured expanded Belong’s digital presence to include Meta (Facebook and Instagram) and TikTok, leveraging unique strengths of each platform.
Retargeting and Nurturing: Favoured implemented retargeting strategies alongside email and in-app messaging to nurture leads and enhance user engagement.
Improved CPI by 66%: By diversifying ad channels and optimising ad spend, the cost per install was significantly reduced.
ASO Success: The view to install rate on app stores jumped from 20% to 59%, indicating higher user interest and optimised app store presence.
