A fully ramped-up campaign generating substantial clicks, conversions, and a solid return (3x) on ad spend.
Key Observations
-
1. From Zero to Significant Activity
The campaign went from complete inactivity to driving 841K clicks and 832K purchases/sales, indicating a major launch or reactivation.
-
2. Substantial Ad Spend & High Volume
€268.7K in total spend reflects a large-scale effort, targeting a broad audience or multiple segments.

Case Study: From Zero Data to a 3:1 ROAS
Initial Challenges and Goals
- Challenge: The advertiser had no active Google Ads presence, resulting in zero conversions and zero spend before February 2024.
-
Goals:
- – Launch a High-Volume Campaign: Rapidly reach a wide audience to generate robust conversions.
- – Achieve Profitable Return on Ad Spend: Target at least a 3:1 return to justify a large ad budget.
