The Challenge

Inflation and rising energy costs are putting strains on household finances.

The Work

We ran an “always-on” digital campaign to show up when people searched for thermostats or energy savings. Digital tactics included YouTube, Google (Discovery, Search, Responsive Search, Performance Max) and Social. We continually tested and optimized tactics to deliver the best results.
