KEYWORD
Profits (€100 per conversion)
“I used to obsess over the results of each tactic we used with Google. Now, I look at the
overall results and trust my team to hit our overall goal. It’s helped the team test new
things”
RICHARD COHENE
Director of Marketing| Beyond the Rack
Principle #3 | Think quarterly
Advertiser optimizing to €50 CPA daily
Advertiser optimizing to €50 CPA quarterly
Testing
Optimizing
Result: lower growth
Result: higher growth
Split your marketing into a performance budget that has to
hit specific metrics + a test budget to look for new growth
