Hitting its personal best

When Dark Horse took over the Maximuscle account it wasn’t in the strongest state. On average, Maximuscle was seeing a ROAS of 3x with a cost of purchase of £15.43. It was clear that this campaign was not reaching it’s true potential and needed a personal, social trainer.

Once we got access to the account it was time to put this campaign through its paces.

We started by introducing a full funnel 99% approach to the campaign builds with clear and defined layers for TOF, MOF and BOF activity. This then complemented the current structure with best practice strategies such as adopting a Campaign Budget Optimisation approach to prospecting to allow for real-time optimisations, including all placements to improve efficiency within the auction, as well as including thorough exclusions to ensure we don’t see overlaps in spend.

Alongside this, we influenced the creative output to enable us to run mobile-first content that is best suited for results via social – content formatted for mobile, short and fast video snippets to engage the user, increasing social proof via customer reviews and UGC, etc.

WildBounds

WildBounds has a passion for the outdoors and all things adventure - big and small. Live life to the fullest, challenge yourself and push yourself beyond the bounds of your comfort zone. A philosophy we, here at Dark Horse, mirror. So, when we engaged with WildBounds for Paid Search (PPC) management, we knew this was going to be a great journey. WildBounds had struggled in recent years to find the right partner to manage its PPC Search Campaigns. It needed someone with extreme competence and total diligence to take over and help climb to new heights. It was time to get our fingers dirty.
