Yieldbot Partners with Kimberly-Clark on Effie Award Winning Campaign

NEW YORK, Aug. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Yieldbot, the leading media marketplace for real-time consumer intent, today announced that a campaign they partnered with Kimberly-Clark on was recently awarded a Bronze Effie Award. The campaign supported the Huggies brand with active moms and was a joint partnership across Kimberly-Clark's shopper agency KC Shopper Connect and several digital media vendors.

With a focus on digital activation to reach active moms pre-store in an effort to disrupt her in-store shopping ritual for diapers, KC Shopper Connect partnered with multiple digital vendors to create a 1-2 punch media plan. Yieldbot led the second phase of the campaign – leveraging their first-party data to reach moms who were showing active intent for diaper solutions.

"We value our partnership with Kimberly-Clark and were thrilled this campaign was recognized with an Effie Award," says Yieldbot president, Chris Copeland. "Our goal with every client is to create a long-standing partnership focused on consistently delivering the back-end metrics that matter most."

Yieldbot and Kimberly-Clark have since partnered on multiple campaigns, each successfully driving in-store sales. In a more recent Huggies campaign, Yieldbot's media drove a nearly three percent increase on in-store sales, delivering a return on ad spend of over $16.

"We were thrilled to be recognized with an Effie Award for this campaign and value Yieldbot's contribution to its success," says Jason Davis, Senior Brand Manager, Shopper Marketing for Kimberly-Clark. "Yieldbot's unique ability to find active intent for our brands through their first-party data, all within a brand-safe environment makes them an outstanding partner for us. Further, their clear focus on delivering back-end results is why we continue to collaborate with them on our campaigns."
