A digital marketing strategy is the path to profitability. Optimum7 can help you set the right goals, offer and implement creative and technical strategies, and use data and analytics to review and improve your business’s performance.
PPC and paid search can be a great way to generate leads fast and build your business through online channels.
Consider this:
The average B2C eCommerce sale is around $75-$120. Even when you factor the possibility of repeat customers, you still typically total under $250.
The average Customer Lifetime Value (CLV) in a B2B setting is $20,000-$200,000! You do the math!
A successful PPC strategy for B2B eCommerce companies can mean hundreds of thousands of dollars a year in added revenue and be a catalyst for growth.
At their core, B2B and B2C are the same. They both have campaigns, keywords, audiences, and so on. However, if you’re a B2B company operating in a niche industry, Pay-Per-Click (PPC) advertising presents unique hurdles companies in the B2C landscape aren’t faced with. Longer sales cycles, lower search volume keywords, and high competition makes performing PPC for B2B eCommerce companies particularly challenging

Pay Per Click ads can appear on several different platforms including:
• Search Engine Results Pages (SERPs)
• Social media sites
• Web pages
…and more.
The name PPC comes from the payment structure of the advertisement, in which advertisers pay a portion of a budget to an advertising platform each time an ad is clicked by a website visitor. It’s one of the most popular forms of Internet advertising because businesses can have their ads shown at the top of search engine results and social media platforms right away. Other common strategies, such as SEO, can take months or even years to start taking full effect.
Search ads pop up after a consumer searches for a keyword related to your business. You have almost certainly encountered the most common variety of search ad, which is Google Ads. These pop up at the top of results pages when you search for topics related to their content.
Display ads are seen on websites that pertain to the keyword for which someone has searched. For example, if your B2B eCommerce store sells electrical outlets, your ads may run on sites related to electronics. This can apply to text, images, or video ads. If you create video PPC ads, they may run on YouTube.
Social media PPC ads pop up on sites like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Linkedin. These are high-engagement sites with sophisticated options for targeting people based on interest. Many of these ads, Facebook in particular allow users and admins the option to manually engage with the ads they create via actions such as likes and shares, thus mining them for more value.

Marketing and advertising are part art, part science. You need to make data-driven decisions, but ultimately the only proof is in the results you get. The wonderful thing about PPC marketing is how many variables you can A/B test.
A/B testing is particularly important for B2B eCommerce brands because your potential clients are more selective. They don’t make decisions the same way B2C customers do, so finding a message that works takes tinkering.
…and so much more. On the creative side, you can see what results you get from A/B testing:
…and more. When you are trying to figure out what works best, only change one aspect of your ad at a time. This will let you trace the impact of your decision-making. When multiple variable change, you lose track of cause and effect.
PPC bidding strategies let you choose different goals for your advertisements. B2B brands can benefit from this because they can make sure they are using their ad budget to meet their exact needs.
Here are a few bidding strategy options for your PPC campaign:
Overall, you want to make sure you know what the goal of your campaign is. Track this because, believe it or not, some campaigns run for so long that people forget which metric marks its success. For example, if you run an exposure oriented campaign, don’t look at the final results and say “hey! It didn’t get any leads.” Remember the goal you had in mind at the start.
Half of all web traffic, according to data studies, comes from mobile devices. Make sure that if someone clicks on your advertisement on a mobile device, they land on a page that looks great on a handheld screen.
Advertising extensions are pieces of information that can be used to improve your ad’s performance. Often, examples include;
…and more. Anything that will make your advertisement more engaging falls under this category. Imagine what information you would need to see to take action immediately, and remove all obstacles to that for your browsers.
B2B clients take their time to make decisions about which brands should become their partners. That means remarketing, or showing new materials to people who have already visited your website once, can be such an effective strategy. Studies show that remarketing tends to be way more effective than trying to turn a brand new prospect into a client.
