Google Ads (Paid Search)

E-commerce Fashion Store (UK-based)

Duration: 90 days Goal: Increase online sales from paid search
Primary Metric Achieved+247% sales growth

The Situation

The client had a Shopify store with high-quality products but was struggling to get consistent online sales. They had attempted running Google Ads campaigns in-house but ran into issues with keyword bidding, tracking, and ad delivery, leading to negative returns on ad spend. They were close to shutting down paid ads entirely, thinking the search channel didn't work for their niche.

Our Action Plan

1

Conducted a thorough keyword and account audit, identifying that 60% of budget was being wasted on irrelevant informational searches rather than commercial-intent keywords.

2

Restructured their Shopping campaigns into tightly themed Smart Shopping and Performance Max campaigns, focusing bidding exclusively on high-margin product lines.

3

Optimized product landing pages to improve mobile load speeds, simplify the checkout process, and introduce trust elements.

4

A/B tested 15+ ad creatives and copy variations, optimizing bidding algorithms for maximum Return on Ad Spend (ROAS).

The Results

Customer Acquisition CostReduced from $45 to $18
Sales Conversion RateIncreased from 1.2% to 3.8%
Month 1 Revenue$2,100 (1.2x ROAS)
Month 2 Revenue$4,850 (3.1x ROAS)
Month 3 Revenue$7,200 (4.9x ROAS)

We went from 2-3 orders/week to 8-10. Wish we'd done this sooner.
