The Goal
Rent the Chicken is one of Farmer Joe’s Gardens’ services at their family-owned farm in Northford, Connecticut. Rent the Chicken is a rent-to-own chicken service that provides families with a way to test the waters without a significant investment. The farm wanted to spread the word about their program, so they decided to try a YouTube video ad.
The Solution
The farm’s YouTube video paired photos of current customers with bold, eye-catching text that explained the terms of renting. The video had upbeat music, and a call to action that encouraged viewers to reserve a package. The Rent the Chicken video campaign used targeted keywords related to chickens and farms to ensure the ads would be shown to the right audience. Moreover, they used geolocation targeting to make sure the ad was shown to nearby prospective customers.
The Results
Sharing their video ad campaign on YouTube helped Joe and Ida understand how their video ads could get them the most bang for their buck. The farm’s video drove 28K impressions, 5.4K views, and 255 clicks. Specifically, it allowed the business to closely monitor the keywords that worked, and remove low-performing ones. For instance, the couple noticed generic keywords like "chicken hens" did not drive engagement but used a significant portion of their budget. Deactivating that keyword allotted more of their budget to the campaign’s highest-performing keywords like ‘farm chickens for sale near me’ and ‘chicken hens for sale’. Ultimately, this strategy helped them get more bang for their buck. What's more, the video ad gave the couple insight into which YouTube channels were high-performing for their particular type of content.
