Optimize
We look at all your campaigns, bids and budgets. What's worked, and what hasn't. Where can we increase bids and budgets to get you more traffic? Which campaigns work best, that we should help you build out. Where can we find new keywords that map to more customer demand?
Case Studies
RepairPal
RepairPal is a Marketing Automation SaaS for auto repair shops.
At the time, RepairPal had a basic SEM strategy utilizing one generic ad and a handful of keywords that would be applied generically to all 600 of its campaigns (one for each shop).
Zavient saw this as an opportunity
to build out a long-tail keyword approach, creating a list of every repair and every make, and then combining them, to have RepairPal show up for many more searches.
Zavient also got to work on messaging, doing research on what attributes people valued in auto repair, and creating a variety of ads that spoke to different attributes, that could then be tested at scale across Google.
The result was a massive increase in the impression volume that RepairPal showed up for, with a 10x increase in paid traffic at the same CPA. Over Zavient’s term with the company, they grew from 3 to 6m+ monthly visitors

Gamma Controllers
High-End Videogames Controllers
Gamma is a maker of high-end videogames controllers that uses SEM and Google Shopping Ads. When Zavient started, the account structure we inherited had many different campaigns and keywords, without much optimization. Some keywords had a ROAS (return on ad spend) significantly below 1. Meaning for every dollar spent on ads, less than one dollar in revenue was created. At the same time, only a handful of ads and keywords were being used.
Zavient conducted a complete review. We paused poorly performing keywords, optimizing bids on all keywords, tested new creative that spoke to different buyer motivations, and added in new long tail keywords to capture consumers who were ready to buy.
At the same time, the previous agency had also not implemented new features Google created to boost sales. Zavient implemented sitelinks to promote accessory sales, and coupons on shopping ads to incent shoppers. Zavient also implemented bidding on a variety of retargeting and CRM audiences.
The result was Controller’s revenue increased over 130% versus the previous year, while their ROI improved by nearly 50%.
