Broad reach for a New Year and new brand
Lamoda had grown up, and it was time to change the brand’s concept from an “online store selling clothing, footwear and accessories” to “a platform offering solutions for your image and lifestyle every day.” Yandex DOOH campaigns supported the brand platform relaunch. This format allowed Lamoda to take advantage of Yandex’s cross-channel communication network: using Yandex data to plan DOOH placement schedules, gathering users who saw the billboards into segments and analyzing these users’ behavior on the Lamoda site (with post-view reports).
Step 1. Yandex data comes in handy when scheduling DOOH placements
40 DOOH billboards in Moscow selected
When choosing billboards, Lamoda considered their location and the characteristics of their audience — they were able to make a selection of neighborhoods with users interested in buying clothing and shoes.
Step 2. Setting up and launching the campaign
Yandex.Direct is now home to DOOH campaigns
In the Yandex.Direct interface, advertisers can choose their targeting settings, select specific billboards and add creatives. “Display campaign” format, “digital outdoor” ad type.
Lamoda uploaded two New Year-themed creatives
Lamoda uploaded two creatives with app store logos. In December, consumers show active interest in fashion — they choose outfits for New Year’s Eve and expect deals. Lamoda chose to focus on the holiday mood when making their creatives — this helped created an emotional connection to the new brand platform, showing that Lamoda is available every day to offer new styles for any situation.
Results: An audience of 4.8M consumers in Moscow over 6 days
Lamoda’s DOOH placements got 4 797 775 views. 67% of users in the segment identified in Yandex.Audience were men, 33% were women. The share of smartphones amounted to 66% — mainly users aged 25-45 from Moscow who like to travel, are interested in cars and make online purchases.
Those who saw DOOH ads searched for Lamoda 4% more often than the control group
Branded queries peaked from users saw the billboards at and began searching right after the end of the placement period. Growth was 1% higher on desktop devices, but there were 1.5X more overall branded queries from mobile devices.
3% of all visits came from users who saw ads on billboards, and the quality metrics for this segment were better
To assess performance, they compared site visitors who had seen ads on billboards (post-view) with the control group who hadn’t seen the DOOH placement. For audiences who saw digital outdoor ads, page depth and time spent on the site were higher, but the bounce rate was lower.
Users who saw the billboard ads placed orders on the site 15% more often than the control group
CR for orders amounted to 2% for the control group, whereas CR for users who saw the ads was 15% higher at 2.3%. CR increased most among users who came directly to the site.

Head of Media Services & Planning, Lamoda
At the end of last year, Lamoda launched a new brand platform, and we were tasked with reaching as broad of an audience as possible. Taking into account the available inventory, the timing of the launch, the digital billboards’ potential, the terms of purchase and the possibility of assessing the campaign’s performance, we decided to launch Yandex DOOH ad campaigns. Thanks to targeted placements and thorough planning, the campaign showed solid results. The users we attracted demonstrated strong interest in the brand, and page depth and the amount of time spent on the site rose as the bounce rate fell.

Advertisers can now launch cross-channel ad campaigns in the Yandex.Direct interface, allowing them to choose specific digital billboards, forecast OTS, and also set time and geo-targeting. Advertisers now automatically get a segment of users who saw their ads, that they can then apply to other ad types in Yandex.Direct to continue their online communication with potential customers.
