The Challenge

Where they started.

Tonaly is a leading music app that helps musicians and songwriters master scales and write songs from their phone. When we came on board they were struggling with Meta ads and had little strategy or understanding of creative. As a paid app, it was also one of our tougher accounts to scale.

Our Approach

How we got there.

01

Deep audience research

We researched the audience and found that musicians respond well to educational content.

02

Educational direct-response creative

Working with founder Chris, we built educational creatives that still focused on customer pain points.

03

Scaling into new markets

We kept testing creative to push into new markets while holding CPIs down.

The Results

Numbers, not adjectives.

175%

increase in revenue

Record

Highest revenue months since launch

3x

ROAS sustained at scale

"I'm highly satisfied with the results since partnering with Social Outline. We've experimented with numerous creatives and finally found the winning formula. Campaigns have seen a remarkable uptick in engagement and conversions."
