Fiverr is the world’s largest marketplace for professional and creative services. With simple and intuitive tools, Fiverr connects small business owners, entrepreneurs, and start-ups with thousands of quality graphic designers, copywriters, video editors, and much more. Bamboo and Fiverr teamed up with the goal of supplementing healthy, organic growth with paid campaigns.

Fiverr needed to build upon their organic growth by establishing sustainable paid campaigns.
To ensure you’re driving quality paid traffic, insightful choices on audience targeting are crucial. Luckily, Fiverr had a very good understanding of who their high lifetime value (LTV) customers are.

Bamboo worked with their in-house team to build Facebook audiences, through a combination of Lookalikes and Interest Groups, which were augmentations of Fiverr’s existing pool of valuable customers and proved to be successful.
