The challenge

What was wrong

Spend was spreading across loosely structured campaigns; conversion tracking was incomplete; CPA targets were missed without a clear diagnostic loop.

Objectives

What success looked like

  • Stabilize conversion tracking (GA4 + Ads)
  • Rebuild campaigns around intent and geography
  • Improve CPA / CPL toward target band
  • Document weekly optimization evidence

My role

What I personally owned

Performance marketing lead — account strategy, bidding, creative testing cadence, analytics QA.

Approach

Strategy

Separate brand, high-intent search and remarketing; fix measurement before scaling; optimize toward CPA with ROAS as a secondary check where revenue was available.

The approach

How the work moved

01

Tracking QA

Verified primary conversion actions, enhanced conversions where appropriate, and aligned Ads ↔ GA4.

02

Account rebuild

Intent-based campaign structure, negatives, ad assets and landing-page match.

03

Optimization loop

Weekly search-term mining, bid and budget shifts, creative experiments with held-out comparisons.

Takeaways

Lessons learned

  • Scaling before tracking integrity wastes budget.
  • Landing-page message match often moves CVR more than bid tweaks alone.
  • Sample: document both CPA and lead quality — cheap leads can still fail the business.
