About

Groomie Club, an Illinois-based company was facing the challenge of attracting sales to their site for the Male Grooming products that they provide. Their PPC campaign was costing them a lot of money, but the results remained below expectations. The campaign failed to bring in conversions, and their ROI remained negative because of that.

Challenges

RankingBySEO Inc. stepped in and analyzed the entire PPC campaign for the client. By going over every single element of the PPC for the client, we were able to find the primary issues that were causing the ad campaign to perform poorly. Here is what we found:

  • Poor Engagement on Ads: The design of the ad and the copy were not targeted or relevant to the brand’s offerings, resulting in poor engagement.
  • No Retargeting: There was no retargeting plan for the PPC campaign to re-engage the customers who have interacted with the brand before. 
  • Low CTR: The hook and the visual quality of the images were below par. This is why the reach was quite low, and the CTR went down because of it. 
  • Poor PPC Funnel Strategy: The existing PPC campaign for Groomie Club focused more on direct purchases rather than optimizing the entire user journey for conversions. There was not a proper funnel for the users to help them go from awareness of your brand toward the purchase in the current PPC strategy.

Solution

Once we had grasped the PPC issues, we started working on a brand-new ad campaign for the client to help them maximize their sales from the website. Here are the activities that we performed for the client:

  • Enhanced Engagement: Created highly relevant ads with accurate messaging along with precise targeting to maximize engagement. Improved ad design along with its copy to engage the audience as effectively as possible.
  • Precise Retargeting: Ran retargeting campaigns to help the client’s brand get in front of audiences who have interacted with the site before in their online journey. 
  • CTR Improvement: Tested different media types, hooks, and visual elements to enhance the CTR for the campaign. Our focus was on identifying the exact PPC campaign elements that work best for the clients. 
  • Robust PPC Funnel Strategy: We created a complete PPC funnel strategy that helped Groomie Club meet and engage clients on different stages of their buying journey.
