The challenge

Turn Snap attention into actual foot-traffic.

Snap indexes high among KSA Gen Z — the exact audience the brand needed for back-to-school. But previous Snap buys had driven swipes without proving a hard business outcome.

The brief was to use Snap's most premium non-skip format, add an AR try-on that actually reflected the collection, and measure the real-world outcome: store visits.

The strategy

Non-skip Commercials, AR try-on, store-visit measurement.

Snap Commercials

Non-skippable 6-second Commercials running in-between premium Discover content — only placement mix Snap reserves for a managed-service partner.

AR try-on Lens

Custom AR Lens built with Snap creative services — let users try the back-to-school capsule on their own face and share the results.

Store-visit measurement

Snap's location graph matched Lens and swipe-up engagers to physical store visits, with a control group to prove incremental lift.

The results

Snap attention turned into store visits.
