Challenge

Gainsight’s paid media team needed to promote different products to distinct personas at mid-market and enterprise companies.

With this added complexity, manually building and segmenting campaigns wasn’t sustainable or scalable for their small paid media team.

They needed to find a way to inform and prioritize to new campaigns — without wasting their entire day working in ad channels.


Solution

Their paid media team no longer has to guess which content performs for each market segment, product line, and persona.

With more granular segmentation, they can structure their campaigns more intuitively and in a fraction of the time it takes to do this natively.

They’ve moved from manual testing to always-on experimentation. It’s created the kind of feedback loop you dream about that informs new campaigns and content creation for each persona.


How they used Metadata

STEP 1

STEP 3

Build experiments testing audiences, creative, and copy for each distinct persona

STEP 4

Promote educational content, customer reviews, analyst and comparison reports, and demo requests

STEP 5

Scale their top-performing experiments across LinkedIn and Facebook

STEP 6

Get more efficient with how they’re spending for each persona by market segment and product


"I've worked in paid media long enough to know how important creative optimization and testing is. We now have the ability to test audiences and creatives at scale, at a much higher rate than you can without a tool like Metadata."

5/5
The advertising platform to rule them all!
Metadata has been the most efficient platform for managing LinkedIn and Google ads all in one place. I can easily manage audiences, ads, creatives, offers, and more. The budget grouping allows me to control how much spend to allocate by campaigns, geos, and more.
