Case Summary

In January 2022, our chief strategist worked with an anonymous non-profit to manage their Google Ads accounts (both paid and Grant accounts). Through both accounts, the organization generated top line revenue gains of over $1,007,428 in assisted and last click conversion value with only $208K in ad spend. This resulted in 484% return on ad spend (ROAS) for both assisted and last click conversions as reported by Google Analytics.

Challenge

The organization embarked on a new year in 2022 not having spent over $200K before in one year on Google Ads. But upper management was convinced there was enough opportunity in the Google Ads channel to spend more than in previous years.

In January 2022, they ramped up ad spend for a seasonal product. After testing various campaign types, the team found a winning campaign (Dynamic Search) and increased ad spend for that seasonal product on the paid account. In addition, ad spend continued on the proven Grant account which also generated healthy returns. Finally, the team launched another new campaign for a different seasonal product which generated even better results than the initial seasonal product.
