Web Antler kicked off by partnering with Ticketmaster to lay the groundwork for purchase conversion tracking on the website. Despite compatibility challenges with some platforms, our drive has been able to demonstrate proven revenue results from any promotional activity.

A month-long awareness campaign swept through Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch before narrowing its focus to Wellington in the final stretch to capture search demand generated by promotional activities.
