Solution
Accor Hotels teamed up with their media agency, iProspect, and GrowthAds to implement their strategy for expanding reach and driving growth. Recognizing the importance of measurement in validating new investments, GrowthAds launched a six-week prospecting campaign to explore the potential for direct bookings through cookieless advertising. By leveraging GrowthAds’ Cookieless Breakdown report, which provided real-time insights into conversion volume, CPA, and ROAS, Accor Hotels was able to confirm the effectiveness of their investment in cookieless environments.
Results
By comparing campaigns in both cookied and cookieless environments, Accor Hotels discovered that cookieless advertising alone drove 15% of all incremental direct bookings, with each booking costing 62.5% less than those generated through cookied environments. In total, cookieless advertising contributed 10% to the seven-figure revenue generated by the campaign.
These impressive results highlighted the value of cookieless advertising, allowing Accor to gain greater flexibility and agility in its media strategies moving forward.
