To align all marketing activities with each stage of the customer journey, Traffic Builders utilized their REAN model - Reach, Engage, Activate, and Nurture.
This framework allowed them to identify the most effective strategies and channels to be utilized for CarNext.com. To execute their digital marketing campaigns, Traffic Builders relied on Channable, a powerful tool for automation and optimization.
For PPC campaigns, Traffic Builders created a master project in Channable, optimizing it with master rules. By incorporating dynamic text ads and applying dynamic fields in the ad templates, they generated campaigns and ads quickly.
Leveraging this approach, Traffic Builders was able to replicate the process for all countries, ensuring efficient and consistent PPC campaigns across the board.
The set-up for social advertising was slightly different. Traffic Builders imported each product feed from every country into the Social Advertising project.
They then built master rules and linked them to each export feed. This enabled them to implement dynamic prospecting and retargeting strategies through Facebook, maximizing the effectiveness of their social media campaigns.
Display advertising presented a unique challenge, especially in the automotive industry. Traffic Builders tackled this by converting CarNext.com's master feed into country-specific personalized ads that remained consistent and easily optimized.
Using Channable, they imported the feeds and applied master rules, generating feeds for Google Ads dynamic display and DoubleClick. By linking Channable feeds to different creatives and profiles in DoubleClick, Traffic Builders achieved hyper-personalized display ads in all 22 countries.
The implementation of Channable by Traffic Builders led to remarkable results for CarNext.com:
Reduced costs and saved resources: Automation allowed Traffic Builders to accomplish the same work with fewer people, resulting in cost and resource savings.
Increased leads by 500%: Within just one year, Traffic Builders managed to boost CarNext.com's leads by a staggering 500%.
This significant improvement was a testament to the effectiveness of their dynamic and personalized ad campaigns across PPC, social, and display channels.
