The numbers

From one Australian warehouse to the world.

Pool parts are a search-driven, seasonal, price-compared category, which makes it one of the hardest places to hold a return on ad spend. All Star holds an average of 1,246%.

What we did

Shopping feeds, search and SEO built around margin, not clicks.

The program is a full ecommerce engine: Google Shopping and search campaigns for thousands of parts, SEO that ranks the store for the model numbers and problems pool owners search, and follow-up that brings customers back every season.

Track 1

Google Shopping and Ads

Every part findable, every bid tied to margin.

  • Product feed built and maintained for thousands of SKUs
  • Campaigns structured by category, brand and margin
  • Bidding and testing run with AI, decisions made by a senior marketer
  • Seasonal budgets that rise and fall with the pool calendar
  • Expansion campaigns for New Zealand, the USA, Europe and Asia
Average return on ad spend 1,246%

Why it worked

A search-driven category, run on data every day.

Three things made the difference, and they are the same three we build into every ecommerce program.

01

Margin in the bidding

Every product has a different margin, so every product has a different bid. The campaigns are structured so the spend follows profit, not revenue.

02

The season in the budget

Pool parts sell with the weather. Budgets and creative move ahead of the season, so the store is already winning when demand arrives.

03

Scale without starting over

The same feed, structure and reporting carried the store into New Zealand, the USA, Europe and Asia without a rebuild.

"It has been an absolute pleasure to work with Rhys. I can feel confident that his team is monitoring everything and they alert us as soon as we need to pay attention to something. After six months of working together we were up over 300% compared to the previous year. Can't complain about that!"
