Challenge
R1 Industries needed to increase online purchases by optimizing their granular, product-level campaigns and significantly improving search visibility for their highly specific performance parts. Their primary objective was to aggressively drive higher overall sales volume and capture a larger share of the enthusiast market. They faced stiff competition from numerous other established aftermarket retailers. As a complex e-commerce business with a large catalog, balancing Return on Ad Spend with the need for substantial volume growth demanded highly sophisticated, SKU-level campaign management to ensure profitability across all product categories.
