Performance Branding: The New Growth Channel

The secret to sustainable, efficient growth is in your brand. Break the cycle of diminishing returns and sign up to explore Playbook’s new Performance Branding channel.

What Is Performance Branding?

Performance Branding is an approach to performance marketing that understands investing in branding can drive more efficient results than direct response campaigns alone.

Many advertisers invest far too heavily in direct response. The lure of immediate results and pressure to avoid risk obscures the reality that each additional dollar invested yields lower returns.

Today, marketers are still investing past the point of negative returns without even realizing it!

Luckily, modern data science can provide a clear understanding of reality to free up wasted budgets and prove there is a better way forward.

Creative Is the Tip of the Spear

Every marketer should know that creative is the difference between an effective impression and one that falls flat. Playbook Media’s creative team takes a holistic approach to our clients, combining multi-media expertise with rich understanding about your customer, product, and brand to drive results and a lasting brand perception. 

 

The Media Opportunities Are Endless 

Playbook Media is agnostic when it comes to media channels. The right channel for the right product and audience is the key to unlocking Performance Branding. Playbook Media assesses the media mix to determine where the greatest opportunities exist to invest in wide-reaching upper-funnel placements that attract new customers to conversion campaigns. We then apply our best-in-class strategies and creative testing frameworks to harness the full power of the platforms where your most valuable users engage: Meta, TikTok, Google, LinkedIn, and beyond. 

 

Finally, Brand Marketing You Can Measure

Stopping at the basics of measurement is a surefire way to waste budget. Our measurement techniques aim to get the very most out of each dollar of your marketing spend. We use a combination of geo lift tests, MMM analyses, incrementality assessments, and marginal return assessments to understand where to cut, reallocate, and shift – within single platforms or across holistic campaigns.

Our work with advanced measurement has helped many brands understand the business impact of brand campaigns, which has helped those brand break the addiction of over-investing at the bottom of the funnel to build healthy, robust full-funnel campaigns. Proof of our approach: lower engagement and acquisition costs, with a steady supply of new users from more comprehensive reach.
