The Challenge
The primary challenge faced by this client was its placement within a highly competitive industry in which the average cost per click is well over £20.
CNS initially approached me looking for assistance in boosting its conversion rates. The specific problem faced by this client was the highly competitive nature of its business sector – with so many companies competing within the IT solutions arena, the cost per click of the average campaign CPC rate was coming in at a shockingly high £20 plus.
It wasn’t too surprising that the client was looking to improve its conversion rates whilst also bringing the cost per click down to a more reasonable and affordable level, and they were seeking my help with this challenging goal.
I was immediately keen to embrace the challenge and tackle the project, and the initial course of action was to put considerable time and effort into research. I was determined to pinpoint the most appropriate and most highly targeted keywords to suit the specific needs of this client in order to maximise the success of their campaign.
Furthermore, I decided to take action when it came to blocking several existing keywords that I was 100% certain would fail to convert for the client.
I was hopeful that my efforts would improve the situation for the client but I was impressed and pleased to discover the extent of the improvements. Thanks to my efforts, the client is now achieving an impressive conversion rate of 9%, despite the extremely competitive nature of their business sector. Furthermore, I have also managed to significantly reduce the client’s average campaign CPC rate to a figure that is well below the industry average of £20. Today, the client averages a spend of around £5 per click – a considerable decrease in marketing expenditure and an excellent increase in ROI.
The Solution
I spent a considerable amount of time researching the most appropriate and most highly targeted keywords for this client while also blocking a number that I was certain would fail to convert.
The Result
I was able to achieve an impressive 9% conversion rate despite the competitive nature of this client’s sector. I was also able to reduce the client’s average campaign CPC rate to a figure well below the industry average. Thanks to my efforts, the client is now averaging a spend of approximately £5 per click.
