Client Overview

A formal wear brand selling shirts and pants. Target audience: working professionals and business owners. The goal was scaling without killing ROAS.

The Problem

  • • ROAS dropped as budget increased
  • • Low prepaid orders (40%) & COD dependency (60%)
  • • Stockouts were affecting performance
  • • Low conversion rate (1.91)
  • • No funnel & persona-based creatives

Full Account Audit Findings

Creative Issues

Same persona targeted repeatedly. Poor hook and hold rates led to high CPOC and CAC. No funnel-based creatives.

Landing Page

Poor PDP images, no A+ content, and weak descriptions. High bounce rate was causing a lot of revenue loss.

Operational Gaps

High RTO locations weren't excluded. No prepaid incentives or abandoned cart follow-ups. Product stockouts were directly hitting ROAS.

Strategy & Execution

1. Creative & Funnel Diversification

Built creatives for 3–4 different personas. Tested multiple angles per persona and structured funnel-wise: awareness → consideration → purchase. This reduced fatigue and maintained stability while scaling.

2. RTO & Payment Optimization

Excluded high-RTO locations and incentivised prepaid orders while charging extra on COD orders. This improved order quality and protected margins.

3. Inventory Coordination

Established real-time communication for stock-outs. Shifted focus to variants and promoted alternative colors strategically to avoid performance dips due to inventory gaps.

4. Landing Page & AOV

Upgraded PDP with A+ content and high-quality images. Introduced bundle offers where higher order value earned higher discounts, directly increasing AOV.

5. Structure & Recovery

Launched WhatsApp follow-up campaigns for cart abandoners. Used CBO campaigns for each product to let Meta allocate budget to the best-performing creatives.

What Didn't Work

Testing and scaling in too many separate campaigns created overlap since we were promoting 4–5 products simultaneously. Consolidation worked better for this account.

What we could have done better:

Better alignment and communication with the client for proactive inventory planning. Also, shipping new creatives faster to stay ahead of ROAS drops.
