The Challenge

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.

The Process

AdWords cost simply had to get cheaper or the business could not survive.

An advanced account structure was built from the ground up to isolate the most profitable keywords for the business. This enabled a laser-focus on profitability and an ability to reliably ensure positive ROI.

Advanced Google Ads features such as audience overlays and smart bidding were also implemented to enable machine learning to generate increased efficiency.

The Solution


  • Cost per lead from Google Ads reduced by 25.1%.
  • Profitable return on ad spend achieved.

pk24

pk24 faces unique challenges as the product is a vagina tightening cream and has been around since 2005. Due to the product type, you are not allowed to advertise on Facebook and no remarketing to site visitors on Google due to prohibited product types.


The website was old and did not convert well so we put an entire strategy in place starting with improving the conversion rate with a new Shopify template with well-written content that speaks to the target audience.

CPL

New Choice Homes

Like most industries, the building industry is VERY competitive. Builders often have very high marketing budgets and utilize this spend on SEO + ads via established agencies.


The reason why they came to us over other agencies is that we're an agency owned and run by digital marketers, not salespeople.


In a competitive market, it is very hard to find a solution that makes you stand out - we know that you don't win at marketing by following the crowd.


New Choice Homes wanted innovation and clever ideas rather than simply rolling out a standard search campaign and SEO plan.

ROAS

Inkkas

In 2012 I founded the Inkkas company (www.inkkas.com) and successfully scaled the company from zero into a multi-million dollar brand and then sold the company in 2016 to celebrity investor Marcus Lemonis. The process of launching and scaling a new Ecommerce brand from scratch was riddled with many challenges along the way. Some of the major challenges included branding, go-to-market strategy, fulfillment, sourcing, web design & development, customer acquisition, paid advertising, conversion rate optimization and more. Along with my founding team, we were able to overcome every obstacle and devise a customer acquisition strategy the led to success.
