[Golden Goose]

Today, we’re diving deep into the thrilling world of mobile subscriptions in the mesmerizing land of Greece!
The results of our test are awesome – we earned $666! Our media buyer had to exchange his soul for this amount of cash

We’re joking, of course – the profit was $656, but who knows, who knows… The results are really tempting, and we’re sure you want to know the process behind the test. Let’s understand the details of the offer run, shall we?

Launching the campaign​

Creativity is the key in mVAS affiliate marketing, and it’s a good idea to come up with some tricky angles to grab the user’s attention.

WE DECIDED TO TEST THIS OFFER TWO WAYS: WITH AND WITHOUT A PRE-LANDING PAGE.
As there is a vast collection of pre-landers in the Golden Goose catalog, we took a ready-made one.

Take a look at this pre-landing page, which was meant to warm up the audience.

The gift boxes are clickable
Since we were running a Sweepstakes, we opted for Push notifications as our ad format. This is an efficient ad format which can bring you thousands of conversions.

We had three variations of the same Push where we changed the icon.

So finally, here’s the stats from Golden Goose:
