Car Rental Facebook Advertising

Challenges and Goals

The primary challenge was launching in a new location without an existing reputation. Further complicating matters, the client’s branding did not seamlessly transfer to the new locale, and budget constraints limited their ability to hire an ad manager. The goal was to create impactful Facebook ads that would resonate with the Hobart audience, all while maintaining a consistent brand identity.

My Task

My responsibility was to design the Facebook ad creatives and text, ensuring they aligned with the client’s brand while appealing to the Hobart market. Additionally, I provided the client with the necessary knowledge and structure to manage their Facebook ads independently, tailoring my advice to their budgetary constraints and offering branding guidance to ensure consistency and recognisability.

Strategy and Implementation

The strategy focused on leveraging easily recognisable Hobart landmarks to anchor the ads’ visual elements, placing the cars prominently to underscore the service offering. Competitive pricing was highlighted to attract cost-conscious customers. Audience targeting techniques were meticulously planned and advised to the client to ensure the ads reached the most relevant viewers. Through Photoshop, I crafted the ad creatives from scratch, sourcing images that maintained brand consistency yet resonated with the new target audience.
