Celebrante is an Australian celebrant directory which makes money from celebrants when users make an enquiry with them through the Celebrante website.

The business model is simple, generate enquiries through the website at less than it costs in marketing to generate the enquiry.

The previous owner was forced to sell the website after rising Google AdWords costs had made the website no longer profitable.

Lance Tapsell, a long-time celebrant and customer of the site decided to purchase it and try to get it profitable again.

By engaging Pathfinder, the business was able to dramatically reduce its cost per lead and ensure profitability for the business and its future.

This client came to me because the weren't seeing conversion coming from the ads, and the structure of the campaigns was "very confusing". There were keywords buried within campaigns with hundreds of ad groups, that didn't get a chance to perform or see the light of day. In short, the structure was all messed up.
