The challenge

Identifying the Opportunity

WHP Global's e-commerce teams knew from experience that contextually relevant landing pages drive higher conversion rates, but manually creating them at scale to keep pace with performance marketing optimization was not feasible. This challenge was especially pronounced for Meta Advantage+ Catalog Ads, a growing priority for the performance marketing team. WHP Global partnered with Spangle to leverage AI for growth and efficiency in an increasingly competitive retail environment and create more dynamic, shopper-centric experiences, starting with Anne Klein.

1
New Customer AcquisitionMeta Advantage+ Catalog Ads were a key driver of first-time visitors, but there was an opportunity to elevate shopping experiences to showcase the brand and increase first-purchase conversion rates.
2
Maximizing revenue from existing customersA more dynamic approach to product discovery based on context and in-session behavior could increase repeat purchases and average order value (AOV).
3
Driving marketing efficiency and profitabilityThe leadership team prioritized improving ROAS by ensuring traffic from paid campaigns was better optimized for conversion and revenue impact rather than simply generating clicks.

“The future of digital commerce lies in experiences that adapt to the customer, not the other way around.
