Bookstation, an Irish online book retailer, struggled with managing cross-channel campaigns across Facebook and Google. In early 2021, when Apple implemented changes to tracking through iOS 14, there was a significant amount data loss for iPhone users across the industry.
Over the first 2 months, the Optily+ team was able to achieve phenomenal growth by implementing the funnel strategy, updating creative and copy, and leveraging automation.
Once iOS 14 launched and the vast majority of Apple users opted out of tracking, there was a significant drop in the level of granularity in the data. Despite this challenge, Bookstation continued to grow at a consistent ROAS throughout 2021.
The restructuring of campaigns across Facebook and Google yielded an amazing rate of return for the first two months
Getting creative to make up for data loss that is beyond the team’s control is a key standout feature of the Optily+ team
