TEKTRONIX

Dynamic conversion value integration increases paid search sales by +82%.

Tektronix was previously optimizing to Target CPA, which did not prioritize the importance between different conversion actions and product value.

THE CHALLENGE

Tek was looking to better qualify their conversions across their global Google Search Ads program.

They needed to optimize toward closed SQL dollars over the course of a long sales journey. Historically, assigning conversion revenue has been challenging due to multiple variables of product pricing for Tektronix’s test and measurement products. Variables include the quantity of analog channels, bandwidth levels, and sample levels. For example, to purchase an oscilloscope, there is no one-size-fits-all approach and revenue varies depending on the needs of specific consumers.

THE SOLUTION

Working across multiple stakeholders and departments to define a dynamic conversion value.

Values would be based on conversion goal, product, and product conversion rate through the entire sales process. Through interviews with the client’s sales, analytics, and product teams, we ascribed a dynamic conversion value across 4 different conversion actions by region, product value, and product sales close rate. Our proven approach included:

Walk

Conduct Interviews with Tektronix’s sales team to acquire essential purchase data
Conduct profit and loss interviews with Tektronix’s finance team to account for product value and their associated operating costs
Quantify past projects by channel and/or campaign to account for historical data
Develop custom UTM source codes that flow into CRM database

Jog

Quantify marketing investment based on data inputs and desired ROI goals
Identify conversion rate based on SQL-to-sales data
Map average value of final sale and LTV
Determine conversion value to set distinct values of each touch point, such as SQL and closed deals

Sprint

Assign KPIs in paid search platforms for daily campaign management based on conversion ROI funnel activity
Identify dynamic values with offline CRM data and apply static conversion values to paid search campaign conversion actions
Analyze significant data trends and forecast for seasonality
Consistently re-evaluate expected conversion values and attribution modeling based on customer data points

THE RESULTS

Tektronics saw the following year-over-year (YoY) improvements with no increase in media spend.

The use of dynamic conversion values established benchmark profitability performance by product and region spanning across 20+ countries. Once sufficient data was collected, we optimized for efficiency with Target ROAS.

+82% increase in closed sales delivered by paid search. $48,287,152 vs. $26,530,460 YoY for the same period.
+48% increase in the number of conversions coming from the paid search channel.
-34% decrease in the cost per application. Conversions were driven at a more efficient rate, dropping from $153 to $101.
