Brand: Samsung Category: Electronics Market: Vietnam
As electronics are typically big-ticket items, customers have a higher tendency to purchase these
products during the mega sales campaigns. To optimise for conversion and capture more customers
during these periods, Samsung adopted an always-on approach when running Shopee On-platform
Ads in Vietnam throughout 2021.

The always-on campaign strategy enabled Samsung to develop top-of-mind awareness and maintain
brand visibility during the consideration phase. This then translated to higher conversion intent
during peak sales period and generated more returns for the brand.
