47% Drop In Cost Per Conversion

The Client: Vertere Acoustics

Vertere Acoustics is a prestigious British high-end audio manufacturer, founded and led by visionary Touraj Moghaddam, who is also renowned for his co-founding of Roksan.

The Background

SMEketing began collaboration with Vertere Acoustics at the end of 2020 through Chelsea Hinton of Hinton Collective, with active campaigns officially starting in January 2021.

“SMEketing has been managing my clients’ Google Ads for several years. They are highly knowledgeable and always seeking ways to improve campaign performance. I wholeheartedly recommend SMEketing’s services.”

Chelsea Hinton

Initial Challenges

Vertere Acoustics targets a niche audience with an interest in high-end audio solutions. Reaching this discerning demographic effectively required a data-driven and highly targeted Google Ads strategy.

Strategies Implemented

Campaign Creation

SMEketing initiated two separate search campaigns: one focused around Vertere’s unique products and another aimed at generic industry terms to capture those higher up in the sales funnel.

Data-Driven Targeting

SMEketing adopted a targeted approach, employing demographic and device-based bid adjustments in line with Vertere’s ideal customer profile. Geographically, we zeroed in on areas near Vertere’s distributors, thus eliminating wasted ad spend.

Remarketing and Smart Bidding

After gathering sufficient data, SMEketing launched a remarketing campaign. This ensured that Vertere Acoustics remained top-of-mind for potential customers. As data continued to accumulate, a switch to a max conversions smart bidding strategy was made for further refinement.

Account Efficiency

From the outset, SMEketing set up the account following best practices, which led to a quickly optimised and efficient account. Once performance metrics were satisfactory, the focus shifted towards reducing the average CPC, which allowed for an increase in clicks and conversions without affecting the budget.

Don’t Just Take Our Word For It

Hear from our happy clients

SMEketing has been excellent in helping Smart Associates with its Google Ads campaigns for about three years to date. Victoria’s advice and guidance has always been spot on. Very importantly, she has the ability to listen and understand what the client’s business needs to achieve, and set her advice within that context.

Bill Porter, Smart Associates

Victoria has supported our business for the past year. She is extremely knowledgeable in Google Ads and comes up with suggestions to help us improve conversion rates with the use of keywords and landing pages. Victoria is always at the end of an email if we have any questions.

Emma Dobson, Grosvenor Technology & GT Clocks

We have been using SMEketing for over a year and Victoria has really improved our results. Working with her is great as she is up to date on all the latest revisions to Google. We have experienced a significant increase in our clicks and our cost per click has been managed well. It is a collaborative effort to make the most of our budget with SMEketing keeping a watchful eye on how our account is working and recommending suggestions and improvements.
I find it easier to discuss things face to face on occasion and Victoria is always happy to meet up and makes things easy for me to understand. Would highly recommend giving them a try, you won't look back.

Alison Adamson, Create-This

Always available for a catch up and to work through the regular reports she provides so that I am up to date with the ongoing performance of our campaigns, tweaking keyword and spend as required. Victoria is also able to provide advice and direction with best practices and alternative ideas to ensure that our campaigns are as positive as possible.

Paul Lawrence, Pitman Training

Victoria and her network provide expert and friendly support that works. Over the last few years we've seen improved quantity and quality of inbound opportunities. Consistent and pragmatic approach mixed in with the right test and learn of new ideas. Highly recommended.

Niall Cluley, dragonfish

I am so impressed with how you work and how thorough you are, and I’m delighted that I found you

James Holmes, Hampshire Hypnotherapy & Counselling Centre Ltd

Victoria has just completed the first (of many) projects for my company and not only did an awesome job, worked to our crazily tight deadlines. Thank you!

Alison Davis PhD, Eurofins

We've loved working with SMEketing. The level of service has been excellent.
Victoria is unpretentious and full of genuinely useful expertise. We look forward to working together for many years to come.
