Tearing up the Playbook: How Leadfeeder Marketing Has Adapted to the New NormalAndy Culligan
We’ve all been thrown into a situation of extreme change. One which was unimaginable only a couple of weeks ago.
While we deal with differing degrees of disruption and stress, we likely have something in common: the things we were doing at work a couple of weeks ago aren’t working in the same way anymore.
If we don’t adapt, we won’t survive.
We need to throw the norm out of the window and revise our marketing and sales strategies.
In this webinar, the Leadfeeder marketing team will:
Discuss how companies adapted during the global recession in 2008/2009, and what strategies they used to stay above water.
Take a deep look at what the Leadfeeder marketing team are doing to ensure we adapt to the new norm.
Share what KPI's we are following, how we are benchmarking them, what an abnormality or trend looks like with such limited data, and making quick decisions to lead to greater lead generation results.

In the last 5 years, retail media has reached $30b USD in advertising revenue and is predicted to continue growing.

Totally the Year of Mobile
Over half of online traffic is on mobile devices
now…how are far behind are conversions
from following?
5. 5
Totally the Year of Mobile
» Mobile Bid Modifiers
Time of day, day of week traffic is different than desktop
Re-evaluate and change bids often
» Remarketing to Mobile Visitors
But on desktop, via programs like Facebook Dynamic Product Ads
» Some of You Will Still Just Have to Turn it Off
Or really close to it
@ebkendo #stateofsearch

Facebook DPA: Remarketing on Speed
» Need a product catalog feed to Facebook API
specification
As well as the Facebook Pixel
» Need a 3rd party OR a developer with skills
In order to create and manage campaigns to the Facebook Ad
Management API
» Need some people to remarket to
Traffic sources of direct, referral, organic or paid search
@ebkendo #stateofsearch
8. 8
Facebook DPA
» Create and Modify Ad Units
Depending on catalog size, you may need a lot of templates and copy
» View Through Conversions Count
» Seed Demographic Data from the Brand
Create audiences within “all site visitors”
@ebkendo #stateofsearch
9. 9
Facebook DPA
» What we’re seeing: home decor
3x conversion rate of Google PLA
ROAS of 1200%
Right rail has a higher return than Newsfeed and Mobile
Return is fairly equal between 24hours and <10 days, so recency is not a
major factor
Timeframe: one month
@ebkendo #stateofsearch
10. 10
Facebook DPA
» Does Facebook DPA Cannibalize PPC Sales?
A little…
For one client (major retailer, multiple verticals) we saw over the course of
3 months, 23% of Google AdWords PLA clicks go to Facebook instead
8% of Facebook conversions came from an Google AdWords assist
Facebook “organic” accounted for 40% of the original referral
@ebkendo #stateofsearch

Accelerated & Standard Budget Serving
» Campaign A never reaches it’s daily budget, but
converts well
Change ad serving to accelerated
» Set that daily budget at a reasonable number, not one
that will cause panic attacks
» Pair with Conversion Optimizer feature
Standard: ad serving is spread out the day based on daily budget
Accelerated: ad serving is for every eligible impressions until budget is
depleted.
@ebkendo #stateofsearch
14. 14
Dynamic Remarketing
» Add dynamic parameters to your website and show
visitors the products they added to cart, but did not
buy on the GDN
» Set up feeds in the Business Data area for non-retail
» Use predefined audiences or build your own
segments
» Use Conversion Optimizer for easier management
Highly targeted banner ads on the Google Display Network showing to
previous site visitors.

Dynamic Remarketing: Resources
» Google case studies: ModCloth & Sierra
» Set Up Guide in AdWords
» Set Up Dynamic Feeds in AdWords
» My SMX East presentation
If the client has Universal Analytics, you may not need additional
code

Conversion Rate by Category
For example:
» Conversion rate average is 2%
» Jackets & Blazers, gets only 5,000 clicks a month, but
converts at 4%
» Turn up the bids/daily budget on Jackets & Blazers,
get all of the conversions possible. Volume might not
be as impressive, but revenue is revenue.
Review conversion rates by category or product type. Sure, it may be
lower volume, but at 4%, let it ride!
@ebkendo #stateofsearch
20. 20
RLSA for Shopping
» Build remarketing lists based on cart behavior, site
behavior and show up in search results pages
» Second highest converting ad type after text/PLA ads
» Requires a tiny bit of code
Pair with Google Analytics and build audiences based on a myriad of
metrics.
@ebkendo #stateofsearch

» Site Converters
» Time on Site > than one minute (give or take)
» Page Viewers
Viewed 5 pages in under a minute and left
» Out of Stock Items
Not everyone needs to be remarketed to. In fact, some of them may be
really tired of you by now.
@ebkendo #stateofsearch
29. 29
Turn It Off
» Set a Floor for Holiday
If you’re strapped on budget, pause that ad group or campaign and move
that budget over to where you need it.
Even if it’s only $5
You could bid down, way down, alternatively
But, I’d rather have the money and spend elsewhere than hope for the
miracle
Sometimes you need to retreat and regroup.

Who Buys This Stuff?
30% of 2014 Black Friday and Cyber Monday

Gmail Ads
» Return was 1:1
Over the course of a month, once analytics worked
CPC was really low, like 0.06 for Interests
» Best for branding/exposure
Focus was new to file customers
Creative took the user to a video of products with a coupon at the end
» Have to be able to reformat email creative or
provide ready to go for the “landing page”
What we’re seeing based on a home décor client:

Yahoo Product Ads
» Official launch: November 12th
“Gemini” removed from the over product name
All Gemini accounts will be enabled
» Still a lot of “wait and see” going on
We saw a 6x return with an early beta test
Showing on Yahoo.com, desktop and mobile, sprinkling in Polyvore ads
for women’s fashion.
@ebkendo #stateofsearch
40. 40
Yahoo Product Ads
» Some set up notes
Dropbox (or Fetch) used to submit feed file
Still need a Yahoo AM to create the FTP Yahoo Dropbox
Not all 3rd party providers ready to support fully yet
Feed configuration follows Google’s specs very closely
There is a Merchant Center within Yahoo Gemini
@ebkendo #stateofsearch
43. 43
Throw Some Money at Bing Ads
» Easy to import existing AdWords structure in
» Don’t structure too granularly
About 1,000 clicks per product group over 30 days
» Run Product Ads and Shopping concurrently until
transfer of traffic is complete
» 5% or less is on mobile, primarily desktop
January is now the official sunset date of Product Ads campaigns.
@ebkendo #stateofsearch

Bing Shopping Campaigns
CommerceHub saw 30% 2013 vs. 2014 year
over year growth on average after switching
from PLA campaigns to Shopping campaigns
on Google AdWords.

Ad Customizer: Countdown Text Ads
» Text ads only
» Set up and let these customized ad unit ignite fear and
urgency
» Tons of other ad customization options, but for
holiday, start here
Find this easy-to-use template in the Business Data area of AdWords
@ebkendo #stateofsearch
47. 47
Ad Customizer: Countdown Text Ads
» 30% CTR increase, 2x Conversions for countdowns
» 50% reduction in CPA for geo customizers
49. 49
Conversion Optimizer
» Must have AdWords Conversion Tracking set up
» At least 30 conversions in the last 30 days
In order to get the feature enabled
» If not, recommend at least 1,000 clicks in 30 days
before trying anything else
Like Enhanced CPC
» Works especially well on the GDN and with Dynamic
Remarketing
Gain statistical significance and let Google do the heavy lifting, especially
on the Display Network.
@ebkendo #stateofsearch
50. 50
Conversion Optimizer
» Can try accelerated ad serving to “speed up” getting
enough conversions to enable
» After Holiday
Make sure to change CPA goals to align with pre-holiday times
Otherwise, you’ll choke off pretty much all the traffic, unfortunately there’s
no “forget this giant spike in traffic” timeframe exclusion setting
Continue to enjoy the machine learning after holiday, just at a much
slower and probably a higher CPA rate
