The Challenge

Context +

The account was suffering from diluted focus. Budget was spread across too many small, specific campaigns — preventing the algorithm from gathering enough data to optimize effectively.


Previous Year Spend: $132k  |  Previous CPA: $45.28


Problem: Efficiency drops usually happen when you scale. We needed to scale without losing efficiency.

02

The Strategy

Execution +

A. Strategic Consolidation — We paused 40% of low-performing campaigns to pool data. The algorithm needs volume to learn; by consolidating budget into fewer, stronger campaigns, we fed the machine faster.

↯ The Insight

Complexity was killing performance. By simplifying the account structure, we allowed the algorithm to make better bidding decisions.

B. High-Intent Scaling — We identified "Double Storey" and "Home Builder" keywords as our highest value segments. We didn't just nudge the budget; we uncapped it. +300% spend → 5.6x conversions.


C. Brand Dominance — We secured the bottom of the funnel, ensuring that awareness generated by broader campaigns was captured efficiently at the end.
