Search engines are constantly evolving in sophistication and complexity. It takes expertise to build multilayered PPC programs backed by data across various campaign types to maximize profit. To engage new customers actively looking to buy, top brands must leverage the power of search and intent for online advertising.

Forthea PPC Agency of the Year

Scalable PPC Advertising with High ROI

Our paid search approach combines expertise in search engines with an understanding of ideal audience and search intent. We then pair cross channel-performance with keyword data to build PPC campaigns focused on bottom-line impact, ultimately delivering a high impact, scalable business driver that provides predictable revenue and high ROI.

I think of digital marketing programs like climbing a mountain. It takes a lot of hard work, effort, and trial and error to summit the top, and no two mountains are the same.

Republic Manufacturing Blows Away Competition in Paid Search

Paid search is an essential business driver for Republic, an industrial manufacturer of centrifugal blowers and air knife drying systems. With stretched internal resources, their PPC campaigns needed a strategic focus and dedicated expertise to drive quote requests and purchases for industrial products in multiple markets.

We developed a revenue-focused paid search roadmap to achieve Republic's sales goals. We tightened-up keyword strategies to increase high-quality leads, and with keyword refinement, we were able to provide growth opportunities based on campaign data analysis, A/B testing, and lead analysis. This included adding in an RLSA campaign and being one of the first in the industry to incorporate expanded text ads.
