Bramley × VIU

STREAMING MEDIA THAT TURNED ATTENTION INTO ACTION

Bramley needed to connect with South African consumers in an engaged digital environment while using video to strengthen awareness and additional creative formats to encourage interaction.

Traditionally Wired Media used VIU to position the brand within an on-demand entertainment environment, combining pre-roll, mid-roll and banner advertising to create different opportunities for awareness and response.

Performance was analysed across creative formats, devices and days of the week, allowing the campaign to reveal not only what was delivered, but how audiences responded.

WHY IT WORKED

VIDEO HELD ATTENTION

Video achieved a 95% completion rate, significantly above the stated VIU platform average of 70%.

CREATIVE INSIGHT

BANNERS DROVE ENGAGEMENT

Banner creative delivered stronger direct engagement, while video played a valuable role in brand awareness.

AUDIENCE BEHAVIOUR

THE RIGHT TIMING MATTERED

Friday and Saturday showed stronger engagement, with Friday recording a 5.52% click-through rate.

CAMPAIGN PERFORMANCE

RESULTS THAT SHOWED A CLEAR SHIFT IN ENGAGEMENT

630,023 Impressions
31,876 Clicks
5.06% Overall CTR
95% Video Completion
THE CHALLENGE

BUILDING AWARENESS WITHOUT LOSING THE OPPORTUNITY TO ENGAGE

The campaign needed to balance two objectives. Video had to build familiarity with the Bramley brand, while additional creative formats needed to give interested viewers an opportunity to respond.

THE APPROACH

USING DIFFERENT FORMATS FOR DIFFERENT ROLES

TWM combined video placements with banner advertising rather than expecting one format to perform every function. This allowed video to support awareness while banners provided an engagement-focused layer within the wider campaign.

WHAT THE DATA TOLD US

PERFORMANCE IMPROVED SIGNIFICANTLY

CTR increased from 1.26% in the earlier campaign period to 5.06%, while clicks increased from approximately 2,500 to more than 31,000. Smartphone delivery was particularly important, with mobile receiving the largest share of impressions.

THE OUTCOME

MORE THAN IMPRESSIONS. ACTIONABLE CAMPAIGN INTELLIGENCE.

The campaign demonstrated how streaming media can combine awareness with measurable engagement. More importantly, the data revealed which formats, devices and delivery periods should inform future campaign decisions.
