Objective

Sell a winter collection through Instagram and Facebook.

Starting situation

The portfolio documents the campaign rather than a prior baseline, so no starting-point metrics are claimed.

Strategy

  • —Use carousel and influencer video creative across Feed and Stories.
  • —Judge video on retention (hook and hold rate), not on views.

Implementation

  • —Sales campaign optimised for website and in-app purchases.
  • —18-second influencer video plus carousel creative; the account held 242 ad sets.

Measurement setup

  • —Purchases (website and in-app) and video retention reported in Meta Ads Manager.

Campaign changes

  • —Creative assessed on retention data: 65% of viewers dropped before three seconds, so the opening second was treated as the ad.

Lessons
