Facebook’s Canvas enabled us to tell a compelling home improvement story outside the confines of a typical News Feed advert. This allows customers to get a complete understanding of Lowe's coordinated style without ever leaving the platform. The experience provides a unique opportunity for the customer to explore the path of inspiration to conversion seamlessly.
