Search Transformation: Turning One Campaign into a Growth Engine

Media

A consumer electronics retailer had an ambitious target of 13:1 ROAS in one of Australia's most competitive retail categories. Their existing setup — a single catch-all campaign grouping all products together — couldn't deliver the visibility or control needed to hit it.

The Challenge
  • One broad campaign with no visibility into which categories or regions drove returns
  • No ability to scale winners or cut underperformers
  • Highly competitive market with global brands and discount retailers
What We Implemented
  • Made Performance Max the cornerstone of the strategy, paired with value-based bidding
  • Segmented campaigns by four geographic regions to reflect demand patterns and store footprint
  • Segmented by 13 product categories, each with tailored search themes and audience signals
  • Created a 52-campaign structure (13 categories × 4 regions) for granular budget control
  • Used Maximise Conversion Value bidding to direct automation toward high-value transactions
  • Built tailored creative asset groups per category to lift ad relevance and PMax ad strength scores

The Takeaway

Replacing a broad, undifferentiated campaign with a structured, segmented framework gave Google's AI better inputs — and delivered sharper, more scalable results.
