The Challenge

Before partnering with Tech Ad, TalentFlow AI faced several performance issues with their paid advertising campaigns:

  • High cost-per-demo from Google Ads
  • Low-quality leads from broad keyword targeting
  • Weak conversion tracking setup
  • Poor landing page conversion rates
  • Generic ad messaging with low CTR
  • Limited visibility for high-intent enterprise HR keywords
  • No clear attribution between campaigns and closed pipeline revenue

Despite spending over $38,000/month on paid search, pipeline growth had stalled.

Our Process

Tech Ad Strategy

Tech Ad rebuilt the entire paid acquisition framework with a focus on high-intent B2B HR software buyers.

1. Search Campaign Restructuring

We reorganized campaigns based on:

  • HR software categories
  • Hiring intent
  • Funnel stage
  • Company size targeting
  • Enterprise vs SMB segmentation

Campaign Segments Included

  • Applicant Tracking Software
  • AI Recruiting Software
  • HR Automation Platform
  • Employee Onboarding Software
  • Workforce Management Software
  • Enterprise Recruitment CRM

This allowed for:

  • Better budget allocation
  • Cleaner search term management
  • Improved Quality Scores

Stronger bidding efficiency

2. High-Intent Keyword Targeting

Tech Ad eliminated wasteful broad-match traffic and focused on commercial-intent searches such as:

  • “enterprise ATS software”
  • “AI recruiting platform”
  • “HR workflow automation software”
  • “employee onboarding platform”
  • “recruitment CRM for enterprises”
  • “best applicant tracking system”

We also implemented:

  • Extensive negative keyword lists
  • Competitor keyword segmentation
  • Brand exclusions
  • Intent-based audience layering

3. Conversion Tracking & Attribution

The previous account had inflated conversion data caused by duplicate tracking events.

Tech Ad rebuilt tracking using:

  • GA4
  • Google Tag Manager
  • Enhanced Conversions
  • CRM integration
  • Offline conversion imports

Tracked Conversion Events

  • Demo requests
  • Sales-qualified leads
  • Booked consultations
  • Pipeline opportunities
  • Closed-won deals

This allowed bidding strategies to optimize toward actual revenue-driving actions instead of low-quality form fills.

4. Landing Page Optimization

We redesigned the campaign landing pages around:

  • Enterprise HR pain points
  • Social proof
  • ROI messaging
  • Clear CTAs
  • Faster page speed
  • Mobile optimization

Key Improvements

  • Simplified forms
  • Added product screenshots
  • Added customer testimonials
  • Introduced ROI-focused headlines
  • Improved CTA placement

5. B2B Remarketing Campaigns

Tech Ad launched remarketing campaigns targeting:

  • Demo page visitors
  • Pricing page visitors
  • HR content readers
  • Webinar attendees
  • Trial users who didn’t convert

Remarketing ads highlighted:

  • Case studies
  • Product demos
  • Customer success stories
  • Free consultations
