Our response to the brief started with sound research. Chilango had been live with Wireless Social since August 2018 across its estate of 12-sites. During this period, 8,600 customers had logged into Chilango’s guest Wi-Fi, boosting their existing email database to give them a solid base of contacts to use for marketing campaigns.

We created a Facebook audience for Chilango and then incorporated it into the Chilango Facebook marketing platform – targeting all customers who had opted in to receive further information. Alongside this, we created 'lookalike audiences' which incorporated customer Facebook profiles, together with their likes, interests, ages etc, whilst finding similar profiles to those of their customers to create a huge audience of potential new ‘lookalike’ customers. An ad was then created targeting this profile in the Birmingham area. In just 3 days, we were able to increase sign-ups to the Chilango opening burrito offer – achieving a staggering increase on the initial target of 1,500 by 53.3% – all through the smart use of Facebook integration. Data capture at this site continues to grow and is currently at 71% WiFi opt-in.
