My friends—this is why you work with CYS.
Because fundamentally we believe in analytical approach to marketing and that there are things to know, and they can be learned through experimentation and measurement.
Our biggest wins have been in this arena. Including our recent win for “Best Use of Analytics” at the IMPACT18 digital marketing conference in Las Vegas this fall.
Team CYS got an invite to speak at this year's "Digital Marketing Recoded" conference in Las Vegas this month. Looking forward to showing off some of our recent Google Ads wins!
Big budget projects are great. They give us tons of room to try a wide breadth of tactics. And they produce the requisite data to gather statistically relevant conclusions. But small businesses can benefit from high-quality, targeted search traffic from Google Ads too. CYS is having success working with small advertisers and small budgets. It's all about setting up a solid foundation, being patient, and limiting management expenses.
Digital marketing optimization is hard. Set up is easy(ier). Results usually come quick with Adwords. But what do you do next? How much is possible? What's the best keyword? Bidding strategy? Time of day? Set up is easy. Set it up, make sure you have conversion tracking dialed in, let it run. Making it better (or fixing it when something goes sideways) is much, much harder.
Cost-per-lead measurement leaves something to be desired, doesn’t it? Getting beyond CPL is hard work that requires commitment from agency and client alike. Here’s how we did it. This project represents (as of now) six months worth of work, through numerous iterations of ‘most current, best truth’. The value is clear: Know and optimize for the cost to generate an appointment.
As usual, we're experimenting! This time with different remarketing tactics on Facebook to see if we can identify any patterns. This test ran over 20 days, spent about $1k in ad budget and was set up make comparisons between two primary variables, 1.) remarketing list size length, comparing 7 days vs 90 day and 2.) campaign objectives, comparing Link Clicks vs Brand Awareness vs Engagement. Here's the total results from all campaigns:
