Results Summarized:
We were able to secure a retweet of the remix from the official Sonic the Hedgehog movie account. We then uploaded the video to Youtube and utilized a coupon from Google Ads to match $150 in ad spend.
We created a Youtube ad campaign and placed the remix in front of various Sonic the Hedgehog movie-related content such as trailers, interviews with cast, etc. By targeting the ad this way and through additional keyword filtering, we were able to ensure that the majority of views would be from individuals highly interested in both the movie and the type of music.
The post performed incredibly well on Youtube fueled by an initial ad launch. The high engagement built by the Youtube ad campaign prompted the video to start being added to several high profile Youtube playlists and showing up as suggested content. Additionally the video started to index incredibly high on Youtube search results related to the movie, that allowed us to get the video to go viral.
