The Solution

Hand to hand (H2H)

Strategy

FREE NOW worked with Oppizi to activate targeted flyer distributions in high-traffic zones across France. Brand ambassadors delivered flyers face-to-face in key areas aimed to catch people most likely to use ride-hailing services.

Why it was chosen

Hand-to-hand flyering created trust through personal interaction and ensured FREE NOW’s offers reached potential riders in the moments they were most likely to convert. Flyers were tracked and coded for attribution, making results transparent and measurable.

Campaign Results

Powered by Oppizi, FREE NOW’s offline campaigns delivered measurable customer growth and brand visibility across France.
