Our targets & goals
Generate Higher-Quality Google Ads Enquiries
Nellie Supports needed to cut through irrelevant traffic and start receiving leads that truly matched their specialist adult social care services.
Reduce Wasted Ad Spend
Broad match keywords were draining their budget. Our goal was to tighten targeting, minimise irrelevant clicks, and make every pound count.
Scale Campaigns to Fuel Sustainable Growth
With effective tracking and consistent results, we aimed to scale campaigns responsibly, driving growth that would ultimately support business expansion and new hires.
When clients come to us having already used Google Ads before, we offer a free account audit in order to quickly assess the current profitability and potential success of their PPC marketing.
From Nellie’s audit, we quickly identified the key areas that needed improvement in order to make Google Ads a success. These were:
- Using appropriate keywords and match types.
- Identify rogue search terms through regular communication between our account manager and Nellie’s team.
- Spotting potential keywords to expand out campaigns, or create entirely new ones.
- Testing automated bidding strategies that have worked well with similar businesses we have worked with previously. Automated bidding strategies allow Google to take more control, based on the data gathered in your Ads account. It allows them to target users that their algorithm deems best fit to your goals, whether that be for leads, sales or brand awareness.
- Focusing on conversions from phone calls as these leads were generally of higher quality.
What we achieved
When Repeat took on the account in May 2019, Nellie Supports started with an initial budget of £300 a month, having already spent £1,500 on Google Ads with little to no return.
Having worked through our tailored strategy, we started seeing encouraging results. As the Google Ads account increased in performance, so did the client’s trust in us and the service we were providing. 12 conversions in the first month from £300 ad spend gave Nellie the confidence to up their ad budget to £800 in month 2. This ensured we were targeting as many potential customers as possible.
Their ad budget has since further expanded their budget and added Microsoft Advertising4, both of which are going from strength to strength.
Often when increasing ad spend, the cost per conversion also increases, however with Nellie Supports, theirs remained steady at an average cost of £33 per conversion each month. This has allowed Nellie to grow not just their revenue, but their team as well.
Thanks to the success of Nellie Supports digital marketing, the business has grown, with 2 new hires within the first 12 months of trading. They had to expand in order to manage the ever-increasing workload.
