Recipe for Success
Pinterest Trends tool gives advertisers the data to be trend spotters in real-time. Philadelphia used the tool identifying an opportunity to time their holiday campaign around cheesecake—which sees increased searches and interest in the lead up to the festive season every year.2
They used high-impact max-width video ads alongside standard video and static ads for a more immersive experience. The mix of ad formats delivered on the multi-objective consideration and awareness goals.
The highly memorable campaign most notably measured the highest boost in action intent with the coveted Gen-Z demographic.1
