The digital product is“OneBank by Sterling” and the MVP features are the ability to save, borrow, invest, transfer [globally] and earn.

Developed the campaign’s Big Idea — “A New Way to Live / A New Way to Bank” — positioning OneBank as a holistic financial product spanning saving, borrowing, investing, transferring, and earning.

 

 

03. Execution & Optimization

Ran Install Campaigns (Google UAC, Twitter Install Ads, Facebook Lead Gen Ads) and Social Media Awareness Ads concurrently, while deploying a growth hacking strategy using incentives across popular channels and influencers for maximum reach.

 

04. Measure & Audit
