Google Ads Case Study: How We Generated 3x More Sales, Improved profit & generated 80% more sales from their Google Ads budget

Imagine tripling your sales while cutting your advertising costs by over half. That’s exactly what happened when Client E decided to entrust us with their Google Ads management. Here’s how we turned their underperforming campaigns into a powerful profit engine.

The Challenge: A Struggle for Growth

Before working with us, Client E was frustrated with their Google Ads performance. They were working with an agency that overwhelmed them with reports filled with vanity metrics. While the numbers looked good on paper, the real results, sales and profits, remained stagnant.

Here’s what they were dealing with:

No Clear Strategy: Client E was eager to scale their business, but their agency lacked the strategic direction to make that happen.

Confusing Metrics: The agency bombarded them with numbers that didn’t translate into actual business growth.

Lack of Transparency: Client E was left in the dark, unsure about what the agency was doing or how to improve their results.

Plateaued Growth: Despite spending a significant amount on ads, their sales were barely breaking even.

The Goals: Scaling Up and Taking Control

Goals:

Optimize Profitability: They aimed to transform their Google Ads from a break-even operation into a cash machine that generated sales on demand.

The Approach: A Strategic Overhaul

Client E first participated in our 8-week Growth Marketing Coaching & Consulting course, where we uncovered the root causes of their underperformance and identified the steps needed to turn things around. In February 2022, we took over their Google Ads management, implementing a completely new campaign structure and eliminating the ineffective strategies left by their previous agency.

The Results: Transformative Growth

Before we got involved.

They were spending $49,500 to get 147,000 in sales at a roas of 2.96 at a cost of $65.85 per sale. They were barely breaking even, not to mention the $24,000 a year cost of the agency each month.

The results speak for themselves. In the first year of working together:

In the second year, we continued to build on this success:

Disclaimer: These results were achieved by overhauling a poorly managed campaign, optimising the website, and taking the right steps, in the right order to maximise growth and profit While we strive to deliver exceptional outcomes, results can vary depending on the starting point and condition of your existing campaigns.

Conclusion:

By partnering with us, Client E was able to turn their Google Ads from a costly struggle into a highly profitable channel for growth. Through strategic management and a focus on profitability, we not only tripled their sales but also slashed their advertising costs, turning what once seemed impossible into a new standard for success.
