Transcripts

John Moran:

And then I get to go back in time and benchmark that landing page

2

:

and see regardless of the campaign,

did I start to push more what the

3

:

search terms look like different and

what we're working better and what was

4

:

working worse and all the other stuff.

5

:

So yeah, we're going to get real

deep into this and then overlay AI

6

:

so we can do predictive indicators.

7

:

Oh, it's gonna be so powerful.

8

:

but FA, what we're going to be doing

is removing these three products,

9

:

not the first one, just removing

these three products and making our

10

:

own standard chopping campaigns.

11

:

For these three with the daily budgets

that are whatever we spent on the monthly

12

:

budget of those products divided by 30.

13

:

4.

14

:

So this would be, 98 73 costs in the

last 30 days, 98 73, what was called

15

:

10 G's of 10, 000 divided by 30.

16

:

4.

17

:

This campaign is going to have

a 330 daily budget on Rosemary.

18

:

If these metrics hold inside of

edge mesh, then we get to push.

19

:

We just scale as long as my conversion

rate holds my initiated checkout,

20

:

my active car, my engages, as long

as it's holding to these benchmarks.

21

:

I'm going to be continually pushing

because this is a snapshot in the future.

22

:

Seven to 10 days of revenue, both

inside in app and also on Amazon.

23

:

I don't have to push, wait seven

days, get the, loss of attribution.

24

:

Maybe they click brand,

maybe they bought on Amazon.

25

:

Maybe they, maybe we ran an email.

26

:

Maybe they came back organically.

27

:

Maybe we didn't spend too much

of all that stuff goes away.

28

:

But I can say if they're getting

to the site and they're staying,

29

:

within these benchmarks metrics

that they have for the last 30 days,

30

:

I'll continue to push cool, right?

31

:

We get to use our actual benchmarked

previous historical performance.

32

:

When this is good to say, will this

hold, or when we push, do we see a

33

:

diminishing return and engage users,

active carts, initiate checkout,

34

:

begin checkouts, or actually checkouts

conversion rate does the ARPU.

35

:

Average, revenue per user on

initiate gross checkout and net

36

:

checkout and actual checkout.

37

:

Does this stay the same?

38

:

Cause again, I don't care.

39

:

That's 0.

40

:

don't want that to go down.

41

:

So this is where I can get a snapshot

of future growth and scalability rather

42

:

than, what could we attribute that week?

43

:

Now,

44

:

this tool is 8k a month, but

it is, it's super powerful.

45

:

And we got to see, are they still new?

46

:

Are they still unique?

47

:

Do they still have product

view rates that are high?

48

:

Yes.

49

:

It's standard shopping.

50

:

Of course they will.

51

:

it's literally the only possible

scenario in here because it is,

52

:

Just look at this top line here.

53

:

As long as these metrics stay about the

same product view, Do they view a product?

54

:

Yeah.

55

:

We sent them to the page.

56

:

you can even see that

there's 10 percent bouncers.

57

:

Because they didn't even view a

product before it even fully loaded.

58

:

They just left, cool stuff,

engage product view rate.

59

:

Percentage of product

views by engaged users.

60

:

Whether engaged, it's very good.

61

:

this is so much fun.

62

:

Gauge users was zero value carts.

63

:

There's people that are really looking

at this bill and going to multiple pages.

64

:

This is so much fun.

65

:

So Glenn, does that satiate

your want for edge mesh?

66

:

Does anything here that you want to see?

67

:

want to see the patterns that

you recognize more and then

68

:

yeah, I want to play with it.

69

:

I know.

70

:

Look at this active cart, total value.

71

:

This is 2600 versus 22

versus 14 versus a thousand.

72

:

This one right here has got the highest.

73

:

And that is from the audience

that is mostly engaged.

74

:

So because we use leading indicators,

not attribution, unless these

75

:

people just start falling off at

scale, then I know I hit a point of

76

:

diminishing return on that channel.

77

:

I've exceeded the available audience

that Google can target, or at

78

:

least I've exceeded the amount of

demand from an inbound perspective.

79

:

I can go right up to the point where I

would start to lose a dime and then stop.

80

:

Are you doing anything with the

standard shopping campaigns with

81

:

respect to, making sure that the

search terms are relevant, doing any

82

:

negatives, all that sort of stuff?

83

:

No, it's already there now, which is good.

84

:

the interesting thing though,

is this here, watch this.

85

:

this product, the, Disney collectors

bundle, you see how this Disney collectors

86

:

bundle has a, conversion rate of 0.

87

:

53, And it shows that I have,

713 and conversion value.

88

:

it shows like eight sales.

89

:

We see how they're starting

to decline this page here.

90

:

Actually, it's been confirmed.

91

:

We investigated.

92

:

It doesn't have anybody converting.

93

:

So we saw this two weeks ago and

I was like, that can't be right.

94

:

Google's showing, showing a metric.

95

:

And I was like, this is, this

doesn't make any sort of sense.

96

:

So I noticed this two weeks ago, had a

conversation with them this last week.

97

:

And I was like, Hey, before it makes

some expensive decisions, why this

98

:

showing zero and compared to Google.

99

:

And it's this one's

like purple toning here.

100

:

This is all the same thing.

101

:

And then purple toning was like, no, we

got a thousand bucks in conversion value.

102

:

that's what he's like.

103

:

Same date range from all

cold traffic, And he goes, so

104

:

Google shopping check manually.

105

:

Indeed.

106

:

None of those clicks on the

lander had a conversion.

107

:

he's man, there's

definitely no conversions.

108

:

How?

109

:

And I was like, actually we

track every click for 90 days.

110

:

And he's that's convenient for them.

111

:

And so we were like comparing

and contrasting results.

112

:

and when this one here, along with

the, sat in heat list, this one,

113

:

this last 30 days is showing none.

114

:

So yes, these people are getting to

the site and they are buying something.

115

:

But you can even see now this last 30

days, this one's starting to fail that

116

:

landing page isn't converting anybody.

117

:

So what does this show us?

118

:

we see a leading indicator that's

saying, Hey, the last 30 days of traffic.

119

:

Now imagine this in the last four days

of traffic where it's like last four

120

:

days, Noah's converting this page.

121

:

Google has returned users, warm

traffic that it tries to attribute

122

:

to those campaigns that are outside

of what I'm filtering and says, yeah,

123

:

no one's actually hitting this page.

124

:

it's not doing anything.

125

:

Now this last 30 days,

that campaign's tanked 50%.

126

:

I could have known that a month ago by

saying, actually, no one going to this

127

:

Disney bundles, buying the Disney bundle,

they're buying other things, but not that.

128

:

So shut that off.

129

:

I can get these leading indicators

before it starts to tank.

130

:

So it's cool stuff.

131

:

FAA, what's cracking you?

132

:

more question.

133

:

Those are individual products.

134

:

We also have the categories.

135

:

So when you descend by clicks, the

number one product was heatless curler.

136

:

But that's the number three

ad group in terms of clicks.

137

:

So when you descend clicks

in the ad groups, pillowcases

138

:

has the most amount of clicks.

139

:

It's distributed around

like 10 or 12 products.

140

:

So to make sure like for Rosemary,

do you want that product or do

141

:

you want the whole Rosemary group?

142

:

Nope.

143

:

That product.

144

:

That's what I love about Edgemesh is

it's landing page specific and I want

145

:

ad spend to landing page specific.

146

:

and I want to see if I can push

it and correlating search terms.

147

:

So we'll take just those three products,

put them in their own campaigns.

148

:

we're not going to care about if

there's people that used to click

149

:

on that one and go to another one.

150

:

I want to see if I can isolate and scale.

151

:

that's the point of it.

152

:

And then I get to go back in

time and benchmark that landing

153

:

page and see, regardless of the

campaign, did I start to push more?

154

:

What does search terms look like different

and what we're working better and what

155

:

was working worse and all the other stuff.

156

:

we're going to get real deep into

this and then overlay AI so we

157

:

can do predictive indicators.

158

:

Oh, it's gonna be so powerful.
