Background and Problem
When they came to us, New York Fun Tours had been running digital advertising campaigns but were dealing with challenges in ad targeting, conversion efficiency, and customer acquisition costs. Their campaigns were missing focus and structure, which caused a lot of wasted spend on irrelevant or non-optimized keywords. Their marketing struggles left them with a bad return on ad spend (ROAS) as they didn’t have proper user segments in their ad groups and the tour offerings of New York Fun Tours. They needed a solution that would position their travel agency ads to match high-intent searches for services like private car tours and food tours in New York City. Our main goal was to increase the amount of leads while maintaining an efficient budget allocation and ROI across campaigns.
Case Study
Our solution to this tourism marketing problem required us to restructure New York Fun Tours’ existing Performance Max campaign. The team began by segmenting the service offerings into multiple different persona groups, where we made sure that each was aligned with highly relevant and high-intent keywords. Each persona group was created for a specific tour segment, such as ‘private car tour New York City,’ ‘NYC food tours,’ and other niche tours they offer. This allowed the ads to target the right customer segments and focus on buying intent keywords that shows the customer is more likely to convert into paying customers.
The keyword research process was a very important part of this strategy’s effectiveness. Our AI tools analyzed the most transactional search queries that were relevant to New York Fun Tours’ business, such as ‘private car tour New York City’ and ‘NYC food tours.’ This ensured that ads would appear for high-converting, highly specific searches regarding tours.
