Lead Generation:

Vireo tested various ad assets to determine which videos led to the best view rate, click rate, and conversion rate. Specifically, we tried minimalistic ads which were to the point and highlighted the ease of app usage, to attention-grabbing videos that disrupted a person’s usual view habits. We tested various ad bidding and targeting strategies, ranging from interests, income, and other demographics.
