Better performance thanks to pull marketing From the user's point of view

In general, performance marketing is understood to mean the increased use of pull measures in marketing. Which brings us to the next buzzword. What is pull marketing? It is a demand-oriented marketing method that is preceded by the user’s search intention. Potential customers actively approach the communicating company. A concrete demand is met with relevant content.

Classic pull marketing channels are:

  • search networks: Google Ads, Microsoft Ads
  • search marketing: Google Search, Microsoft Search
  • Google Shopping

Campaign success with valantic Marketing campaigns that work

Not everyone knows how to implement successful campaigns. We do! Our goal is to get our clients’ products and services to rank in the top search positions in the most important search engines. To achieve this, we focus on data-driven, feed-based campaigns – always keeping an eye on the ROAS (return on advertising spend). Regardless of whether you prioritize margins or leads: We know which search terms to place your ads on.

What about Google Ads? Through specific geographic targeting, Google Ads offers the opportunity to focus on exactly those search queries that are relevant to your business. Through prior in-depth research, we find out and define these search terms together. Measuring the results ensures that every advertising euro invested is put to the best possible use.

Social commerce

Selling products via social media

Active participation of customers, personal relationships, and a lively exchange: All this characterizes social commerce – and makes this form of e-commerce interesting for performance marketing. In addition to standard pull measures, we also focus on proactive product sales or lead generation via social networks. Similar to Google Shopping, products are automatically displayed on Facebook or Instagram to pre-defined sets of users. To people who, on the one hand, match your target group and, on the other hand, are currently in the process of buying something according to platform data.

Performance = more than marketing

A holistic view of success on the web

In line with valantic’s 360-degree customer experience approach, we understand performance marketing to be more than just the skillful use of the measures already mentioned. Marketing alone is not the be-all and end-all. We are aware of the importance of a holistic view of the framework conditions:

  • What do the landing pages look like? Do the intended content pages meet the requirements of the campaign?
  • Do users find all the information they need on the page, or do we need to revise, optimize, expand or shorten the content?
  • Does the design of the landing page need to be optimized to make it easier for users to convert?
  • How do users behave on the website in general?
  • What does the data in the background reveal?
  • Can we use CRO to improve the performance of the page in order to increase the conversion rate?
  • Is the advertised product competitive?
  • What targeting makes sense? How can we get more revenue out of every marketing euro spent? (ROAS)

As you can see: All measures are analysed and reviewed on an ongoing basis – and the objectives defined together with you are subject to constant success monitoring. We don’t guess or follow our gut feeling to determine whether the measures we have implemented make sense. We know based on reliable figures from various tools. No more shooting in the dark. This approach allows us to identify exactly which levers to pull to further improve performance.
