How to achieve a 308% ROAS on a European tour promotion campaign?

The Challenge: Maximizing Profitability Across Borders
The objective was to turn every euro of ad spend into a direct ticket sale for Last Train’s European tour. The core challenge was to manage a profitable strategy across diverse markets, moving beyond simple local awareness to a high-performance, sold-out conversion model.

The Solution: Precision Conversion Strategy

  • Hyper-Localized Targeting: Instead of a generic global campaign, we deployed dozens of micro-campaigns. Every tour stop featured unique ads tailored to local specifics (language, venue, dates).
  • Dynamic Creative Optimization: We utilized customized creatives and calls-to-action synced in real-time with local ticketing platforms to shorten the user journey and maximize conversion rates.
