Case Study on SMM: Launching an Advertising Campaign for a Developmental Toy Set on Instagram
Project topic: Children’s entertainment and educational drawing kits.
Project description (problem): At the start of the project, the company’s website was brand new, optimized only for mobile devices, and there was no presence on social media platforms. There was no existing traffic to the website.
Service: The client approached us with a request to launch product advertising on the social media platform Instagram. Initially, we created company pages on Facebook and Instagram. The next step involved populating these pages with basic information about the company and its products. After these preparatory steps, we proceeded to launch advertising on the social media platform.
Region: All of Ukraine.
Duration of work: September-November, 2018.
Daily budget: from $20 to $110 per day.
Goals and objectives:

- Increase the number of completed purchases made on the website.
Completed tasks:
The advertising campaign was launched through Facebook Ads Manager. The following parameters were set for creating the advertising campaign:
Campaign objective: Increase website traffic.
Bid strategy: Minimum cost bid.
Daily budget: Initially $20 per day, but the client requested an increase in the budget due to the high effectiveness of the advertising campaign.
Location: All of Ukraine.

Compelling ad copy was also written for the advertising campaign.
- After launching the ads, the images in the advertisements were changed several times in order to find the most effective ones.
- Additionally, a few gifts were added over time for customers who purchased the drawing kits, and a bright text about the gifts was added to the banners. It is worth noting that all images were selected in the optimal size of 1080×1080 for advertising on the Instagram social media platform.
- Currently, we are monitoring the effectiveness of the campaign, the budget utilization, and making adjustments to the daily budget as needed.

Among these users, there were 28,010 link clicks, which means clicks on the “Shop Now” button leading to the company’s website. The total spent on the advertising campaign was $3,491. Therefore, the average cost per result, which is the cost per click, was approximately $0.12.
