New Jersey Devils were a National Hockey League franchise back in the early 2000s. The last few iterations of the team had a mixed performance. Prior to last, the team had missed the playoffs five years running.
But, in the last season, they made it to the playoffs but didn’t move further from the first round. Although the Devils was all around in New Jersey.
This happened as they leveraged through Facebook lead ads.
The lead ad is an in-app ad format allowing prospects to submit their contact details without leaving Facebook. These ads convert to leads at 2.07% higher rate against landing pages. Their campaign was processed in three steps-
1) The franchise created a Facebook event for a team-hosted open house where prospects could know more about season ticket membership. They then used Custom Audiences to render that to earlier subscribers.
2) Two variations of lead ads were created, one had a ticket sign up CTA and another had the open house. Again custom audiences were used to render them to a high-intent base of prospects.
This campaign run from May 31 to August 7 of 2018, generating 12X return on ad spend and not only this. There were 32% more leads on a new email campaign and got more than 700 total leads.
