Full global rebrand completed in 24 hours

Background

The majority of Kindred Group’s worldwide display advertising production is done in-house, using Bannerflow.

Challenges

All of Kindred Group’s display advertising, across its 11 brands, must comply with individual market regulations that constantly change. Is also crucial that Kindred Group displays live odds for every sporting event within each market it serves.

Additionally, it is essential that the in-house team is able to quickly produce hundreds of dynamic and optimisable ads every week to both acquire and retain customers.

Furthermore, effective in-house control – across all brands and markets – means it can react rapidly to changing market forces.

Kindred Group achieved

Powerful in-house production

Every week the in-house team produces over 600 banners! Each display campaign they create contains three audience variations, in at least 10 different languages, across 10 different sizes and 20 different ad versions, plus affiliate-specific versions!

Using Bannerflow’s powerful scaling, translational management, and in-built optimisations, a small team of power users can rapidly create all the versions Kindred Group needs

Data feeds that add value

Not only can Kindred Group show live odds in ads but using Bannerflow the in-house team are able to experiment. For example, they created a new dynamic feature called value stats.

Value stats provide smart insights into games and are highlighted in a banner via a data feed. This data feed was tailored for each market and resulted in increased ad performance.

Rebranding in a day, not weeks

Using Bannerflow Kindred Group rebranded all of its live Unibet campaign creatives with a new Unibet logo in real-time. This required the updating of thousands of published display ads, across multiple campaigns and markets.

Working via Bannerflow, a process that would have taken weeks of repetitive design work was performed within 24 hours.
