Increasing Awareness, Leads, and Conversions
Staples rebrands its business account program and doubles its highest-value MQLs, increases monthly conversions 10x, and decreases marketing cost by win 79% with an omnichannel marketing campaign.


Staples wanted to rebrand its Advantage program to Staples Business Advantage and make a big splash quickly while combatting competitors in the marketplace. The goal was to reach and increase brand awareness, consideration, and self-serve program sign-ups among small and midsize business decision makers for the new Staples Business Advantage.

Goodway Group designed a targeted omnichannel media plan including premium takeovers, social, CTV, video, audio, and display across popular publishers and sites. Advertising messages highlighted key reasons to choose Staples Business Advantage over competitors and encouraged shoppers to visit StaplesAdvantage.com to sign up for a business account.

After the campaign launched, Staples saw impressive results: A brand study showed audio and CTV particularly drove significant gains in brand awareness, message association, and consideration. Staples also rapidly doubled its highest-value MQLs, increased monthly conversions 10X, and decreased its marketing cost by win by 79%.
