About the Client
IKOS is a footwear brand specializing in natural materials, combining styles, comfort, and functionality. They focus on attention to detail, innovative design, and modern technologies in every shoe pair.
The Challenge
The client approached us with a clear goal: to increase sales and enhance brand recognition through targeted advertising
How Targeted Ads Work
Imagine searching for a new pair of sneakers. You visit the IKOS Instagram profile, browse their website, and check out a few models but wait to purchase anything.
While scrolling through stories the next day, you see an ad featuring those sneakers. That’s the power of targeted advertising.
It's like walking into a store and having the salesperson offer exactly what you need. The business also benefits, as they spend advertising money on reaching their potential customers.
Market and Audience Analysis
The first step in any project is a thorough research. Therefore, we analyzed the market and the target audience, studied footwear trends, and examined how seasonality affects demand.
The core audience for IKOS consists of men and women aged 23 to 45. They are interested in fashion, value style and comfort, and seek high-quality footwear made from natural materials.
