Case study

# Customer Development & Mobile App Campaigns for an AgTech Company

## Customer Profile

Name: OneSoil

Industry: AgTech

Website: [www.onesoil.ai](https://onesoil.ai/en/?utm_source=Orange-Bird&utm_medium=website&utm_campaign=case-studies&utm_content=OneSoil)

Offering: An AI-powered software platform for precision farming that is free of charge for all farmers and agronomists

Target audience: Small- to large-scale farm owners and agronomists from Europe, America, Africa, Australia, South and South-East Asia

#### Background

OneSoil is building a digital farming platform that helps to monitor fields, plan farming operations, increase productivity and save agricultural resources based on machine learning for farm data and computer vision for spatial imagery. OneSoil turned to Orange Bird when carrying out customer development for their SaaS product with a limited budget.

#### Challenge

- Develop a clear and concise agricultural survey that would engage farmers and elicit a sufficient number of responses for OneSoil to understand the farmers’ paint points and identify gaps at the market
- Engage farmers and elicit as many survey responses as possible via free channels
- Expand the reach globally, engaging the target audience via paid channels and social media networks
- Drive mobile app installations

## How Orange Bird Helped

01/

#### Optimising the CustDev survey

To achieve this, we reviewed competitors’ surveys, selected a survey platform, translated the client’s survey into English and Dutch and tested the surveys in various channels, analysing response rates.  
Throughout the process, we optimised the survey in accordance with user feedback and conducted interviews with members of the target audience to gain greater insights. This proved how easy it is to assume that the survey is clear to end users if it is clear to you. The target audience may use other terms or understand survey questions quite differently than you intend. Only communication with representatives of the target audience can help to reveal weak points and improve the survey.

02/

#### Audience discovery

We found over sixty related Facebook and LinkedIn groups, 180+ farming associations and dozens of events, and hundreds of reputable farmer discussion boards and forums. We registered and got in touch with their members and administrators to distribute the survey.  
In addition, we arranged an email marketing campaign for existing subscribers of OneSoil, increased visibility of our client in social media, exploited various messaging options of the social media networks and got involved in communication with farming associations and conference organisers to make sure the survey reaches the target audience.

03/

#### Paid campaigns

We identified Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter as the most suitable social media platforms for OneSoil’s ad campaigns, set up and continuously optimised the campaigns to achieve better results and a lower cost-per-conversion. 

04/

#### Motivate users

When distributing the survey we did our best to create simple and powerful messages customised for each audience segment in every channel we used. In the messages we focused on how respondents will benefit from taking time to fill in the surveys.

05/

#### Drive app installations

To focus on the right metrics and KPI’s we started with a Customer Journey Map where we identified the stages of user involvement and interest in OneSoil’s mobile app, the actions users might take and the channels for completing them. After OneSoil approved the Customer Journey Map, we launched Universal App Campaigns via Google Ads and various campaigns in Facebook as well as implemented event tracking to keep an eye on the target user actions.

06/

#### Maximise ROI

We set up Firebase to collect usage and behaviour data and to optimise those ad campaigns which drove less engaged traffic while boosting the campaigns with high user engagement.  
We also used Google Play and Facebook Analytics to identify and test various funnels and created dashboards in Amplitude to track in-app events and compare the outcome in each of the considered funnels. In Facebook, we optimised the app install campaigns for registration and used Lookalike audiences to extend the reach. As for the formats, video ads have proved their highest engagement potential and had the lowest cost-per-action.

## Results

OneSoil received more than 120 survey responses from farmers all over the world with the average cost of 7 EUR per completed survey (12 extended questions in the survey)

60 related farming groups were found on Facebook and LinkedIn, 180+ farming associations and 45 relevant farming forums were contacted for cooperation

Twitter account has been set up and developed. OneSoil brand awareness has been increased on Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter

Low cost-per-install (CPI) in ad campaigns (with the average CPI $1.50 and starting from $0.05 for some of the placements)

Media plan was developed with suggestions for other channels and with ideas and topics for blog posts

Content for the mobile app, website landing pages and Google Play was translated into English and German
