Challenge

As a company known for its expertise in spreadsheets, Microsoft meticulously tracks every dollar of ad spend and seeks to understand the return on investment (ROI) it delivers. Given that ROI fluctuates in real time, Microsoft aimed to enhance fluidity and speed. With shifts in customer behavior and media costs, their goal was to quickly seize new opportunities and pivot away from tactics that no longer performed well.

Solution

Leveraging GrowthAds’ AI and machine learning engine, Ara™, Microsoft was able to process web signals, create advanced campaigns, and continuously optimize their performance. They also benefited from the efficiency of the GrowthAds Platform in managing global campaigns, carefully targeting audiences with market-specific nuances.

Results

The Microsoft Azure marketing team used real-time data to engage their global audience and drive measurable ROI. Over the year, they experienced significant growth in the cloud computing market, contributing to a 50% increase in revenue for this segment in Q4.
