You’re right — there’s no shortage of people who can run your search campaigns for you.

We’re not the best fit for everyone. But our clients sought us out and chose to work with us for a range of reasons.

Some just weren’t seeing the results from AdWords they were expecting. Others had no idea what their agency was actually doing for them, or who was running things. And when they got to meet them, the person running their campaigns was always someone different.

So, yes - there are a lot of agencies and individuals who can run your paid search campaigns.

Our clients can tell you what, for them, makes us different. One thing they’re sure to tell you is that we live and breathe this stuff. So, if you’re ready to take things up a notch, let’s have a chat.

Like most people, you probably use Google and Facebook, and if that’s also true of your customers then ideally you want to advertise on both.

But regardless of whether you’re advertising on Google or Facebook, the results you’re getting from your online advertising often come down to how effectively you are targeting your ads.

Improve your targeting and you’ll increase your conversion rates. That means sharpening your keywords, polishing your ad copy and creative, and adding pizzazz to your landing page.

It also means being selective; using audience targeting options to make sure your ads are shown to people more likely to become customers.

In the end, your business may get better results from Facebook than Google, or vice versa: we’ve seen it go either way. You should, at least, give them both a fighting chance.

You may even find that, in improving your campaigns, you can actually afford to advertise on both.

You’re not alone. We work with other clients and businesses that need to keep promoting bookings and availability year-round, although they have a distinct high season and low season.

When business is booming there’s danger that searchers want to book for dates when there’s no longer capacity. When it’s slow, you might be paying more than you want for a visitor unlikely to book there and then.

We’ve developed some good ways to improve results in times of low demand. We’ve been able to lower CPA and control spend, while keeping conversion rates up during peak season.

It’s worked a treat for our clients. If that’s something you’re struggling with, then it’s likely we have a solution that will work for you.

Maybe.

If your other marketing channels are struggling, it’s likely that simply changing who is running your paid search campaigns won’t produce the turnaround in sales you want.

If visits are down across the board, and conversion rates have fallen, we need to understand why before we can give you an honest answer to your question.

All that said, we often see opportunities to improve on the results companies are getting from paid search. It’s often true, too, that in fixing the issues impacting paid search performance you’ll see improvements in results from other channels.

If we honestly don’t think we can get better results from your paid search campaigns, we’ll tell you as much. But to turn “maybe” into “yes”, we’ll first need to review your current paid search activity and website analytics.

We hear this a lot. If it makes sense and you have the budget, you should do both. If you don’t have the budget, you should still try to get it so you can do both.

Why? Because if you increase your paid search spend you’ll get more people to your site today and tomorrow, but you’re always paying for each person who clicks on your ad. You’ll get quick answers and quick results. And there's a bonus: you get to see what messaging works, what landing pages convert, and what doesn’t.

Now, if you’re also doing SEO, you can learn from what your paid search audience has told you.

SEO takes longer, but the results are longer lasting (unless you do it all wrong, but that’s another story). And you’ll usually find that the people who click on your organic listings aren’t in as much of a hurry as the ones who click on your ads. More often than not, they’re still researching and will come back later if they’re ready to buy, sign up or give you their contact details.

So, yes, it’s best to do both. But if you have budget enough for one but not the other, tell us about it. We can look at your site and what’s working and what’s not, so that the decision’s an easier one for you.

You may not be paying much per click, but it’s too much if you’re not getting the right people to your website.

Whether you’re running a Google AdWords or Bing search marketing campaign, or a PPC campaign on YouTube or Facebook, it’s important your ads are in front of the people most likely to be interested in your products and services.

Your Goals
Once we understand what you’re trying to achieve with PPC advertising we can advise the best approach and recommend appropriate platforms. However, only with measurable KPIs will you know if your campaign is successful, and what needs to be done to improve performance.

Right from the start, we’ll help set goals and goal values that make sense for your business, and ensure the reliability of analytics data in tracking performance to your goals.

Your Target Audience
The more we know about your likely customers, the more likely your PPC campaign will attract them to your website.

Different ad platforms offer diverse audience targeting options, but the landing pages, keywords, and what we say (or show) in your ads can also be varied for greater appeal to your prospective customers.

PPC Keyword Research
For PPC search campaigns, we identify the search terms most likely to be used by your target audience when looking for what your company offers.

For contextually-targeted display campaigns, these are the words most likely to appear on relevant web pages where we want your ads to be shown. At the same time, we develop a list of negative keywords that will prevent your ads being shown for irrelevant but related terms.

Once your campaigns are up and running and we can see what results we’re getting, we can set about improving performance.

It’s likely that visitors for some search terms or from some websites are converting more readily than others, and we can adjust bids and targeting accordingly. However, we can also test other changes to your campaign.

Our goal is to ensure the constant evolution of your PPC program, adapting and changing your campaigns as necessary to produce better results.

Analysis
Without careful review of your campaign results, it’s difficult to know what changes need to be made and how best to apply them.

We know that, in improving your campaigns, it’s important to consider performance metrics in context, with due consideration for attribution models, typical time to purchase, and relative traffic volumes.

Refinement
Using both referral and performance data, we’ll identify what’s working and what’s not. We’ll make the changes designed to get you more visitors who convert or show strong interest in what you offer and fewer visitors that don’t.

Testing
Messaging, images, keywords, landing pages, bid strategy and targeting options – all should be tested and optimised over time, along with your offer.
