Utilising Facebook messenger
Working with digital communications agency Salgado, Isbjörn of Sweden prepared for a successful campaign. Installing the Facebook pixel onto its website and creating custom product catalogues for the season.

These ads were shown to lookalike audiences as well as relevant interest-based audiences. The ads made it easy for people to start an instant online chat where they could ask for product advice. Isbjörn of Sweden and Salgado then turned their attention to building conversions. Using insights collected by the Facebook pixel during the awareness phase. Isbjörn showed further dynamic ads to people who had visited its website. These ads then promoted relevant products in a mobile-friendly way.
