The campaign story

From campaign activation toprivate-seller supply growth.

In March, Standvirtual launched a multichannel C2C campaign to make selling a car feel easier, more valuable and more immediate for private sellers.

The challenge

Increase private-seller insertions by activating both ready-to-sell users and owners who first needed confidence around their car value.

The idea

Keep the message simple — “Sell your car” — and route users by intent: create an ad now or start with a free valuation.

The outcome

April delivered +34% YoY insertion growth, followed by +25% YoY growth in May and stable MoM volume.

Product + Marketing working together

The initiative connected a new value-led product page with a broad marketing push. Product clarified the seller value proposition before the user was asked to publish, while Marketing amplified the journey through paid, owned, CRM, WhatsApp, radio and video channels.

Previous seller entry point

The previous entry point was more functional and action-led, asking users to publish or evaluate before clearly building the case for selling on Standvirtual.

New “Sell your car” page

The new page created a clearer value-led journey, explaining reach, AI-assisted ad creation and OLX distribution before asking the user to take action.

Performance + owned media

Google, Meta, TikTok, YouTube, OLX and Imovirtual created broad reach, traffic and repeated campaign visibility.

Radio

M80 and Rede Nova added awareness and helped make the “Sell your car” message easier to remember.

WhatsApp activation

WhatsApp activated around 12,000 contacts, adding a direct CRM touchpoint to the C2C seller journey.

Onsite advertising

Owned media deliveredscale and high-intent traffic.

OLX and Imovirtual placements generated 25.9M impressions and 88.2k clicks between March 10 and May 31, with OLX driving almost all click volume and Takeover formats delivering the strongest performance.

Best performing onsite formats

The strongest formats were not all strong for the same reason: Takeover LP delivered the largest click volume, HP Desktop delivered the highest CTR at meaningful volume, and Topboard added broad repeat visibility.

CTR should be read with context: high-impact takeover placements naturally outperform always-on display units, while Mrec and Category Icon contributed more to reach than click efficiency.

OLX onsite delivery

OLX was the core owned-media engine, contributing 25.5M impressions and 87.9k clicks. The best creative territory by click volume was Avaliar - Eixo 1, followed by Avaliar - Eixo 2.

Read 01

Growth was not a one-month spike

April grew strongly versus 2025 and May held the higher insertion base, making the result more credible than a single-month uplift.

Read 02

The story is supply-led

Reach and clicks support the narrative, but the page should continue to lead with insertions because that is the clearest business outcome.

Read 03

June needs context

June is included for transparency, but it is a partial-month view and should not be compared directly with closed months.

YoY comparison

April and May show strong year-over-year growth versus the same months in 2025, after the March launch period.

Month20252026YoY
April9,31012,465+34%
May10,16212,739+25%
June9,5224,753Partial month
June is shown as a partial-month read, so it should not be interpreted as a final monthly decline.

MoM trend

April to May remained stable, with a slight positive movement in private-seller insertions after the initial launch peak.

MonthInsertionsMoM
April 202612,465Baseline
May 202612,739+2.20%
June 20264,753Partial month
The key read is that April and May were both strong, with May slightly above April.

Next phase

From tactical burst toalways-on C2C engine.

The next step is to turn the learning into a repeatable supply-growth model: stronger attribution, more weight on high-intent placements, and continued focus on the Free Valuation hook.

01

Keep the two-path architecture

Maintain Create Ad for ready sellers and Free Valuation for users who need confidence before publishing.

02

Measure the full funnel

Connect channel, landing-page action, valuation start and final insertion to understand which route creates the best supply.

03

Scale what shows intent

Prioritise placements, messages and audiences that produce downstream insertions, not only cheap clicks or leads.
