Overview

Cellbes set out to elevate their already successful digital presence by taking their PPC campaigns to the next level. The ambition was to grow revenue while improving ROAS. To achieve this, we implemented a custom analytics setup and Precis’ proprietary bidding algorithm to optimise for profit. Combined with tailored attribution, product feed enhancements, and precise audience targeting, this approach significantly improved bidding efficiency and campaign performance.

Our Approach
Success factors

Custom based attribution modelling

Through a better understanding of the entire customer journey, highly profitable keywords were identified that were previously undervalued in budgeting and bidding. By increasing bids and better-allocating budgets on these keywords, it was possible to increase revenue while improving efficiency.

Tailored audiences

Leveraging the long history from Cellbes’ days as a catalogue company, highly specific, segmented audiences were created based on previous offline buyers. Alongside similar audiences from these new lists, we were able to bid more for even the most generic keyword segments, which helped drive the improved ROAS and revenue numbers.

Feed refinement & structural improvement

A complete update to the product feeds lead to product titles and attributes optimised for maximum reach and sales on Google Shopping. Traffic from Shopping reached higher levels without the need to bid higher or more aggressively. This, together with Precis’ in-house developed Shopping campaign structure, ensured immediate and future success on the increasingly important channel that is Google Shopping.

Fully automated bidding set up to work with profit margins enabled automatic profit optimisation for every keyword. Bidding based on profit made it possible to advertise Cellbes’ entire product catalogue despite varying margins effectively. More products to advertise with vastly enhanced bidding created the foundation for groundbreaking PPC success.
