How Data-Driven Campaigns Delivered Measurable Growth
The Challenge
That time we helped a client enter a growth market. The goals? To build awareness, earn contractor trust and seed the market for future lead generation efforts in a highly competitive, contractor-driven roofing environment.
Like many brands investing in integrated digital campaigns, the challenge wasn’t just execution. It was proving real business impact. The client needed to be able to answer specific questions, such as:
The Client
APOC is a leading manufacturer of roofing and waterproofing solutions for commercial and residential contractors across North America. The brand operates under ICP Group, a specialty chemical manufacturer with a broad portfolio of building products and contractor-focused brands serving the construction industry.

How? Well, instead of focusing on vanity metrics, the campaign aligned measurement to business impact:
This tied each tactic to a real outcome, not just activity.
The Results in Action
Awareness That Actually Moved the Market
Engagement That Outperformed Benchmarks
Efficiency That Exceeded Expectations
Full-Funnel Performance v. One Channel Wins
