SUMMARY
IT decision makers didn’t see Google Cloud as an enterprise-ready solution. So through a partnership with the NCAA, we used March Madness to showcase the Cloud’s AI-prowess—creating the ultimate product demonstration, on live TV.
The campaign drove a 13% lift in unaided brand awareness, 11% increase in consideration, 91% rise in product interest, 30% new site visits, and 42% more Google Cloud searches, with positive impact on pipeline.
We proved to IT decision makers that Google Cloud could solve complex business challenges by turning real-time data into hyper-relevant insights.
