From February to April 2022, Coram Beanstalk ran an awareness campaign on Nextdoor. The brand ran Sponsored Posts in the Nextdoor Newsfeed using local substitution to reach neighbours at the local level. Specific postcodes were targeted in areas where volunteer uptake was low, including: Hackney, Islington, Liverpool, Sefton and Wolverhampton. Additionally, the brand also used localised emails in Nextdoor’s Digest to reach neighbours in key markets. The creative featured relatable lifestyle imagery to drive engagement and real-life testimonials to encourage neighbours to sign up and become a volunteer reader.
Throughout the campaign, Coram Beanstalk found great success using Sponsored Posts in Nextdoor’s Newsfeed, averaging a 0.59% CTR with a max CTR of 0.68%. 65 new volunteers signed up to become readers, and 48% of the volunteers who applied during the campaign duration quoted Nextdoor as their source of enquiry.
