Ads that helped shoppers resist other shopping ads

A new regional series of films for Google's one-box shopping feature, which lets users compare products, prices, and reviews all in one place, this campaign turns the classic love-at-first-sight moment into a tool for catching shoppers mid-impulse-buy.

Set to a beloved nostalgic hit "Terpesona" by Glenn Fredly, which literally means "mesmerized" and “นี่แหละความรัก (This is Love)” by Peck Palitchoke, a Thai hit that captures the exact feeling of falling in love, making these the perfect soundtrack for the exact feeling the campaign is built around: the can't-think-straight moment right before an impulse purchase.

The products featured in each film were chosen in partnership with top e-commerce retailers in each market, based on a blend of sales, search, and social data so the "temptation" on screen reflects real impulse-buying behavior. We then bought media placements exactly where shoppers are and before other shopping ads. The campaign turns the most seductive purchase moment into a nudge toward smarter shopping, making "check Google first" the new instinct for style- and trend-driven shoppers everywhere.

The Case Study

As well as for Thailand and Vietnam..

  • 02 - Director Mix Pre-Rolls

    We created pre-rolls that knew just when you feel impulsive and used shopping heavy days like payday, National Shopping Day (ID), Black Friday (TH), Christmas (VN) and more to get to shoppers.

  • 03 - Contextual Ads

    Our ad deals catered to shoppers’ interests too. An ad before you watch a gadget review, will be different from when you seek K-pop videos, fashion, automobiles and many more passion points.

  • 04 -Social

    Across social, showcasing first point of view visuals narrated by inner thoughts as shoppers, we targeted them with relevant deals that felt like they were made just for them.

  • 05 - Bumpers and Banners

    Tapping into all moments of shopping temptation - when people searched for their impulses online, we targeted them with relevant deals that felt like they were made just for them.

Every ad across markets was made and served at a relevant moment.
