n11.com created remarketing campaigns for two target audiences: users who had added a product to the basket without completing a purchase, and users who had viewed a product detail page. The team overlaid n11.com’s own CRM audiences over these remarketing lists. They then applied Smart Bidding strategies, which used machine learning to optimise for conversions or conversion value in each and every auction.
The first target audience – in which users had added a product to the basket without purchasing – responded positively. ROI improved by 125% and the number of transactions went up by 183%. The conversion rate demonstrated a 39% increase and last-click revenue went up by 274%.
The campaign that remarketed to the other target audience – made up of users who had viewed a product detail page – generated similarly impressive results. ROI improved by 458%, while the number of transactions went up by 37%. The conversion rate increased by 600% and the last-click revenue saw a 69% lift.
“We have seen that if we insert our internal CRM audiences in AdWords campaigns with the right bid strategy, performance is positively affected", affirms Digital Channels Supervisor - Aykut Alçelik.
“All of these results prove that when we build a digital marketing strategy, we need to consider our Ads advertising strategy and CRM audiences together. Having obtained the results from these Google features, we’re planning on using Smart Bidding in search and other display campaigns”
