They specialize in a complete range of home appliances and electronics including refrigerators, air conditioners, washing machines, televisions, and kitchen appliances.

Industry: Consumer Electronics & Home Appliances Retail
Business Model: Multi-location brick-and-mortar stores (physical retail)
Target Market: Pakistan (multiple cities)
Campaign Duration: Full Year 2025 (January - December)

The Challenge

Business Objectives & Obstacles

Primary Challenge

The client needed to drive consistent foot traffic to physical store locations throughout 2025 while competing in Pakistan's highly competitive consumer electronics market. Unlike pure e-commerce businesses, their success depended on converting digital awareness into physical store visits and in-person sales.

Specific Pain Points

  • Seasonal Demand Fluctuation: Electronics sales vary significantly by season (ACs in summer, heaters in winter), requiring dynamic campaign strategies
  • Geographic Complexity: Managing campaigns across multiple cities with different market dynamics and competitive landscapes
  • High-Consideration Purchases: Electronics are expensive items requiring customer education, product comparison, and trust-building before purchase
  • Attribution Gap: Difficulty tracking how digital advertising directly impacts in-store sales and foot traffic
  • Lead Quality vs. Quantity: Generating high-intent leads who would actually visit stores and purchase, not just casual browsers
  • Budget Efficiency: Maximizing ROI with cost-efficient lead generation while maintaining quality and volume
