Objective
Visit Vermont, in partnership with Booyah Advertising US, sought a sophisticated method to measure the real-world impact of their social media campaign. The primary goal was to obtain clear, actionable insights into how effectively the campaign was driving visitors to the state of Vermont during the scenic fall season.
Strategy
The campaign ran primarily on social channels within Meta, showcasing Vermont’s opportunities for outdoor activities and vibrant landscapes to their target audience. To move beyond engagement metrics and validate the media spend against real business outcomes, they defined success as a verifiable footfall conversion.
Execution
To gain footfall insights, Booyah Advertising used Adsquare Measurement. This solution integrated our footfall conversion tracking directly within Meta. Powered by 100% SDK-derived location data and our visit-matching algorithm, Adsquare enabled Visit Vermont to:
- Attribute digital ad exposure on social channels to physical visits within the state of Vermont.
- Measure the precise volume of real-world conversions, validating the impact of media effectiveness.
- Establish a reliable Cost Per Visit (CPV) metric to assess the campaign's overall return and efficiency.
By tracking users exposed to the ads who subsequently entered the defined area of Vermont, the strategy ensured campaign success was measured by genuine tourist movement, not just engagement metrics.
Results
The campaign successfully validated the real-world impact of the social media efforts, demonstrating clear efficacy in driving tourism:
- $48.01 Cost Per Visit (CPV)
- 559 Total visits
