Sirloin & NHN Commerce Drove an 82% Viewability Rate with Taboola Video Ads

Sirloin was eager to acquire new customers and drive repeat purchases from existing customers. Specifically, they wanted to help increase the number of “regular customers,” which they identified as people who’d made three or more purchases.

Sirloin also wanted to showcase their premium food products with high-quality video creatives. The problem was that not many advertising platforms had the tools to help them make the most of those creative assets.

That’s when they found Taboola. With a network of over 9,000 vetted publisher properties, Taboola helps advertisers reach engaged audiences with seamlessly integrated sponsored content.

Together, Sirloin and NHN Commerce ran a video and a native display image campaign across Taboola’s network. Each ad included an eye-catching visual, headline, and description. Sirloin also used Taboola’s audience segments — based on data from Taboola’s network of over 1.4 billion monthly users — to target audiences during the Lunar New Year holiday season, when people were looking for high-quality food products.

Most notably, Sirloin and NHN Commerce utilized Taboola to drive results across every stage of the marketing funnel — from brand awareness to conversions. First, they implemented video to increase brand awareness on the open web, successfully driving an 82% viewability rate and 45% completion rate. Then they pivoted to launch a performance campaign of native image ads. The result? A remarkable 2,200% increase in return on ad spend (ROAS) at a lower cost per click (CPC) than expected.

Going forward, Sirloin hopes to keep working with Taboola on future seasonal marketing campaigns
