Case Study - HighSEER

“We hired Logical Position to overhaul our digital marketing efforts and implement an omnichannel strategy–which they did. LP developed a comprehensive roadmap of our various channels to account for budget efficiency across all our campaigns. We wanted to spend more on advertising, but needed to see results too. Logical Position helped us to grow our business while clearly explaining how they planned to do it.”

— Erim Gokce, National Sales Marketing Manager, Parker Davis HVAC

Why Logical Position?

Before partnering with Logical Position, HighSEER deployed a multi-product digital marketing approach, but it lacked a true omni-channel strategy. Both HighSEER & Parker Davis knew their marketing channels needed to support each other, rather than operate independently, but they didn’t know where to start. When they first onboarded with LP in 2018, conversion tracking wasn’t properly set up, which made ROAS goals impossible to target. They turned to our team to establish proper data capture and reliable reporting to better inform their strategy. This helped us understand profit margins by product, so we could help them make sound business decisions as it related to advertising spend.

Our Strategy

Paid Search

Case Study - HighSEER

Once we had proper attribution set up for the account, we benchmarked all historical data to understand profit margins by product and the keywords converting for those items. Starting at the bottom of the sales funnel, we targeted the biggest opportunities and moved up from there. With more than 514 active products, we segmented their paid search campaigns by brand name, product type, and specific functions (ex., heating or cooling units), to look for additional opportunities to scale the account while still meeting or exceeding KPIs.

By June 1, 2021, our manual campaigns maxed out their capabilities, but also established very reliable returns for the account, which included invaluable data. From there, we input that information into account automations tools to further drive growth. Initially starting with Smart Shopping, we leveraged the full Google Network through Performance Max to garner additional opportunities that manual campaigns simply can’t achieve. This is where our attribution model was vital, since without it, we could have never harnessed the extreme potential of the Google algorithm for the client.

The tandem of man and machine continues to drive sustained growth for the client and allows our team to take success on one platform to improve results elsewhere. Next up…

Amazon

Since the Amazon Marketplace is similar to Google PPC—but with its own set of unique rules and features—we took the lessons learned on Google to get started. We segment their campaigns by single keyword ad groups by product type. This allowed our team to target top-performing keywords in the Amazon marketplace and eliminate wasted spend to drive more conversions for the client.

Email

Klaviyo logo

Prior to hiring Logical Position, HighSEER didn’t leverage email marketing, which has the highest ROI of any marketing channel. LP started with a combination of manual and automated emails on the Klaviyo platform to extend lifetime value from their vast list of past purchasers and interested contacts. This strategic approach effectively brought conversions, revenue, and increased traffic to their site. Email marketing also allows them to create an action to fall into email flows (abandoned cart, browse abandonment) while the user is on their site.

Paid Social

For Pioneer HVAC Mini Split systems, LP ran Advantage+ as well as six other active campaigns for paid social:

  • Prospecting–Catalog sales
  • Prospecting Conversions
  • Mid-Funnel–Conversions
  • Dynamic remarketing
  • Static remarketing–Conversions
  • Advantage+
  • Sandbox–Paused

LP split prospecting efforts into two separate campaigns with different goals: conversion and catalog sales. For catalog sales we appealed to a broader audience and employed dynamic product carousels (also known as dynamic product ads or DPAs) to expand their reach and lower costs. We used carousels for the conversion prospecting campaign too, in combination with videos, GIFs, and images.

For ad set-up, LP is currently testing a multi-advertiser feature to increase reach. We’re also at work on testing a DPA slideshow versus using standard DPA format. The slideshow resembles a GIF or video, but can take the user to multiple product pages versus a single URL.

Results

Logical Position and HSPD’s collaboration has been fruitful. LP kept its promise of increasing ROAS without diminishing profitability. With LP the company has engaged a better advertising and marketing strategy and optimized its website, increasing sales and allowing them to hire more workers and expand their product line.
