PFWC Goals
Target specific income levels to secure larger projects.
Acquire additional significant contracts, including municipalities.
Gain traction in non-branded campaigns.
Expand the installation side of the business.
New Build
Before partnering with LP in 2020, PFWC ran a small-budget Google Ads campaign that only targeted branded terms, missing out on a large portion of potential buyers looking for its services. They wanted to reshape their approach to capitalize on low-hanging fruit.
Finding Solid Ground
PFWC was running two separate websites that LP merged into one unified online presence, streamlining their orders and directing all their business through a single channel. We tailored search and display ads by product type to differentiate intended audience demographics and measure the impact on commodities vs. high-ticket items. This is where call tracking played a crucial role in road mapping inbound lead source.
CallRail Partnership
With inbound phone calls as the primary campaign objective, leveraging CallRail supplied close-rate details to attribute revenue per campaign—understanding which ads worked on which audiences allowed Pacific Fence to make data-driven decisions in real-time.
Results
Since working with PFWC in February 2020, we’ve helped them simplify their marketing efforts and achieve greater success with fewer resources and no wasted budget. By capturing more non-branded traffic, the results have continued to scale year over year alongside our continued strategy adjustments.
This has helped our team continue to achieve incremental gains on the account without increased budget.
