google ads campaign success

Google Ads has become an indispensable tool for businesses aiming to expand their online presence and boost sales. These real success stories from various clients in various industries highlight the power of Google Ads in driving tangible results. From startups and local businesses to national powerhouses, the right Google Ads strategies can make all the difference when it comes to a return on advertising investment.

G-Code Holsters

Who they are:

G-Code Holsters is one of the nation’s premier custom gun holster manufacturers with an impressive following on social media and consistent online sales for customized gun holsters and tactical gear.

The Problem:

Due to policy shifts, Meta platforms were making it nearly impossible to promote www.tacticalholsters.com on the Facebook and Instagram platforms despite an aggregate following of over 800,000 users. With a need to diversify marketing channels and build equity in other areas, the company sought help from WiT Group to determine a short-term and long-term strategy for promotion and inbound lead generation to bolster online sales.

The Solution:

WiT Group determined that search advertising and organic search engine visibility were the quickest and most effective ways to immediately drive online sales for the client. With SEO typically being a long-term effort, the short-term strategies relied heavily on Google Ads, specifically Google shopping ads.

Key Strategies

  • Analytics conversion event tracking
  • Integration with Google Merchant Center
  • Integration with Google Ads 
  • Building and Optimizing Product Feeds
  • Accounting for variable attributes for custom products

A deeper understanding of the policies surrounding advertisement for products in the firearms industry was paramount to the success of the campaign—if the campaigns were suspended, all of the effort to set them up would be wasted. Once our team had a firm grasp on the policies we were able to set up the ad account and campaigns to promote the products which fell in line with the advertising guidelines provided by Google. By updating the website code, specifically the product schema markup, we improved communication with Google for better paid & organic search visibility. We also carefully optimized product categories, descriptions, and titles to match webpage content and include important keywords.

Reacting to feedback from the advertising platform including product flags, categorization, and other technical issues, our team was able to navigate the cumbersome advertising requirements which led to  a stable and positive scoring from the ad platform—rewarded by high quality scores, improved conversion rates, and increased ROAS. Through our collaboration, we learned that success in shopping ads campaigns for G-Code Holsters relied on a solid product portfolio, a reputable brand, high-quality offerings, and superior customer experience.
