Project overview

After Jan 2023, the CPC within ICP countries kept rising by 25% which made the campaigns overall ineffective when it came to ROI, after trying multiple channels to generate B2B sales it was observed that the old ways of creating campaigns were not working. Thus I started experimenting with PMAX with first party leads and conversion data, this data helped trained AI to understand the personas as the data kept feeding the campaigns via Audience Signal that what kind of users should it target to show ads and spend on placements accordingly.

Whiteboarding

Here we can see the whole process being simplified where the PMAX campaign is learning from Salesforce Data, keyword targeting, geography targeting all combined into one.

Conclusion

After two versions of programmatic pages published and seeing amazing ROI there were few learnings on what the next version of the page could be. The wayforward focuses on duplicating the similar effort however targeting different intent of keywords which ICP is looking for.
