@hoffman8
In this particular case: At page depth of 7+,
conversion rate triples & average revenue
per user nearly quadruples.
Bonus: There’s still quite a bit of volume!

Set Up Custom Channel Groupings
As you begin to
intentionally influence &
sculpt these exchanges,
it is valuable to dig in on
a more granular level
than the default channel
groupings.

@hoffman8
Measuring Each Campaign
Triangulate where issues lie.
• Low micro-conversion
goal? Could be the goal, or
the campaign.
• High micro-conversion, low
funnel progression? Could
be a flaw with the next
stage or lead quality issue.

Common Remarketing Pitfalls to Avoid

@hoffman8
Common Remarketing Mistakes
Don’t Do
Target only “All Visitors”
Create multiple lists based upon different engagement metrics and audiences
to see what performs best
Just target the audiences that some blog somewhere claimed were most
valuable.
Analyze your performance data to determine which audiences have the
greatest potential.
Blanket exclude audiences based upon time-on-site
Remember that bounces are counted as 0s on site, so single-page landers
may have a lot of visitors with 0s session duration. Considering using scroll
data or other indicators in these cases.
Forget to connect the dots between campaigns
Use micro-conversions and audiences to ensure you aren’t accidentally
sending people backward in the path to purchase.
Fragmenting audiences too far if there isn’t a big enough cookie pool. Determine the right amount of audiences based upon your traffic volume.
Treat all audiences the same
Remember where they are in the funnel and help them find the content that
they need. Also consider the difference in net new vs. repeat purchasers.
Unintentionally cannibalize other campaigns Monitor the impact of remarketing campaigns on other campaigns.
