The solution

Jellyfish's Data Science team worked closely with Yves Rocher's Data teams to develop and validate a robust measurement protocol that would answer two pivotal questions.

• What is the incremental impact of Meta’s campaigns?
• Can we trust and use Meta’s conversion lift?

One of the requirements was to adopt a universal methodology, compliant with all programmatic channels (online and offline), while being able to verify all hypotheses, from channel impact to audience in-platform activation. 

Proving Meta added value with Geolift

In collaboration with Yves Rocher and Meta Marketing Science teams, Jellyfish defined a reliable and privacy-safe measurement protocol. 

The Meta Data Science team supported the project by sharing insights and opinions. Jellyfish experts acted as an unbiased third-party to ensure that the results were reliable. 

Using the latest Geolift research, Jellyfish designed and implemented a multi-dimensional  lift study for the Yves Rocher Hydra campaign:

• Group A was exposed to advertising campaign on Meta
• Group B was not exposed to advertising campaign on Meta
• Group C was exposed at 80%, thanks to Meta’s conversion lift

All three groups complied with strict statistical rules and a rigorous set-up, ensuring their reliability and impermeability. Geo areas were selected based on their representativeness, in order to guarantee results significance. 

The Geolift research (with the comparison of the three groups) confirmed Meta’s incremental impact. Thanks to Geolift, Yves Rocher was able to confirm the necessity of running ads on Meta, to drive revenue but also new customer acquisition.

Validating Meta’s conversion lift robustness

Geolift is a really robust system but this method can be expensive and time-consuming. Another way of getting similar results is to look at audiences using Meta’s conversion lift tool. 

However, Yves Rocher was unsure of how this data was structured and whether or not the results were reliable. Jellyfish compared the Geolift results with the one from Meta’s conversion lift (used during the same test). 

The results were identical across all three monitored KPIs: revenue, transactions, and new customers, proving that the data provided by Meta is reliable, and that conversion lift studies could be part of their testing roadmap. 

Thanks to this validation, Yves Rocher will now be able to run studies with much more flexibility and granular hypotheses. 

The next action identified is to use conversion lift to understand how campaigns on Meta contribute to search traffic evolution and assess the impact of upper funnel activities on customer behavior.
