January 15 – February 28, 2026 · Prepared by Mosaic Reports
The Luminary FY26 Spring Launch campaign delivered a strong opening period, reaching 70.3 million impressions and $412K in media spend across six channels in its first 45 days — pacing at 20.5% of annual budget with balanced delivery across Meta, TikTok, YouTube, CTV, Display, and Streaming Audio. February's full deployment was the defining moment of the period: spend grew 167% from January ($112K) to February ($300K), driving a 138% lift in impressions and a 127% increase in clicks as all campaigns reached full scale.
Efficiency benchmarks are tracking strongly across the board: Meta CPC came in at $1.58 versus last year's $6.41, CTV CPM dropped 39% from the FY25 benchmark ($22.61 vs. $36.95), and Streaming Audio CPM is nearly half of the prior year rate ($10.05 vs. $19.57). These gains reflect improved audience targeting, stronger inventory relationships, and a well-structured campaign architecture. CTV maintained a 96.9% video completion rate, and Streaming Audio achieved 91.7% audio completion — both indicating premium, high-quality placements with highly engaged audiences.
On the creative side, "The Perfect Morning" is the dominant awareness driver across Meta, TikTok, and YouTube by spend volume, while short-form performance creatives like "Weekend Ready" and "Home is Everything" are delivering CTRs of 1.2–1.9% — nearly 9× the campaign average — at a fraction of the CPC. On YouTube, "The Perfect Morning" also leads on completion (59.2% VCR), making it the go-to asset for video storytelling objectives.
Looking ahead, the priority is scaling the over-performing engagement creatives while introducing fresh assets to combat frequency build on TikTok (currently 9.1× after 45 days). Streaming Audio presents a compelling efficiency opportunity worth increasing, and the Display retargeting pool should be expanded to reduce oversaturation among the current audience.

Prior year benchmarks sourced from Luminary FY25 (Jan–Aug 2025). YouTube benchmarks not yet established for this account.
January ran with limited days (Jan 15–31 = 17 days). February reflects the first full calendar month of deployment. Volume differences are expected; efficiency metrics are the meaningful comparison.
| Metric | January (17 days) | February (28 days) | MoM Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total Spend | $112,400 | $300,440 | ▲ +167% |

| Audio Completes | 238,000 | 2,483,000 | ▲ +943% |
Key Takeaway: The MoM volume jumps are proportional to the campaign day difference (17 days vs. 28 days). More meaningful is the moderate CPM and CPC increase in February — consistent with Q1 market dynamics as competitive spend increases. Despite higher costs, all delivery targets are being met and efficiency ratios remain favorable vs. FY25 benchmarks across every channel.

The campaign runs nationally across the US with no geographic exclusions. Below are top-performing regions by delivered impressions and efficiency during the launch period.
Key Takeaway: Tier 2 markets are delivering consistently lower CPMs across all channels vs. Tier 1 (e.g., Meta $2.88 vs. $3.52) with similar VCR and completion rates, suggesting strong efficiency potential in expanding mid-market coverage. Tier 1 markets drive the majority of volume and are necessary for brand-building scale, while Tier 2 can provide efficiency upside as the campaign matures.
Budget reflects full FY26 annual planned spend. The campaign launched January 15, 2026. After 45 days (12.3% of the year), overall pacing stands at 20.5% — ahead of linear pace, reflecting intentional front-loading during the campaign's spring launch window.

Increase budget allocation to "Weekend Ready" (1.93% CTR, $0.39 CPC) and "Home is Everything" (1.18% CTR, $0.38 CPC). Both are delivering clicks at a fraction of the campaign average. Reallocate 15–20% of "The Perfect Morning" budget to these creatives for 30 days and measure reach vs. efficiency impact.
TikTok frequency has reached 9.1× in 45 days — the highest of any channel — and VCR is showing early softness. Introduce 2 new TikTok-native creatives by mid-March to combat audience fatigue and protect VCR before it deteriorates further into the campaign flight.
Display frequency is 10.6× on only 102K reach — the audience is oversaturated. Extend the retargeting window from 30 to 90 days and/or layer in a 1% lookalike segment to grow the addressable pool. Target frequency of 6–7× for improved click efficiency.
At $10.05 CPM and 91.7% ACR, Streaming Audio is the most efficient channel per impression. February proved CPM compresses with scale. Recommend increasing monthly Audio budget by 25–30% in March to capture this efficiency window before seasonal inventory tightens.
CTV is delivering 39% below benchmark CPM with near-perfect 96.9% VCR. It is the highest-quality brand impression driver in the mix. Do not reallocate CTV budget to fund other channels — this is where national brand equity is being built most efficiently.
"The Perfect Morning" achieves 59.2% VCR on YouTube — Luminary's highest-quality storytelling asset. Adapt the format for TikTok-native specs and A/B test against current top performers in March. Its narrative quality has demonstrated platform-agnostic appeal.
