The Challenge

Limited Budget

CDC Offices are a small enterprise that didn’t have the luxury of large budgets to invest into the marketing program. Budgets were dependent on month-by-month performance and it was imperative that each pound spent maximised it’s value.

Locally Limited

Logistics and physical manpower is a key component of the CDC operating model. To reduce overheads and maximise the efficiency of the work space, CDC needed to prioritise locations that were accessible for their removals team.

Supply & Demand

The two brands in the CDC family operated symbiotically. If Zero Furniture needed more stock to sell, than we had to increase volume through the Clear Workspace removals service to allow us to capitalise on demand and generate as much revenue as possible.

The Approach

Our solution needed to be considerate off the context of the sales cycle and hinged on unlocking automation to help them drive more value from the performance channels.

Localised Radius

All of the paid search campaigns we designed for CDC were targeted within a local radius that was in commutable distance for the collection and distribution team. This meant that every job we generated would be within a fixed difference from their warehousing space.

Priority Products Feed

Zero Furniture’s most successful sales were typically driven by products that carried the most inventory which could service stable demand. We built a categorisation of products in the shopping feed that allowed us to prioritise products with a relatively high inventory count.

Push-Pull Bidding

We implemented a budgeting system that took into account the needs of both sides of the CDC business. When stock for Zero Furniture was low we would push budget into the Clear Workspace account to bring in more stock, when it was high we would pull back on our investment.
