Rebuilding a skincare brand's ads from a 248% ACoS

A new skincare brand was spending two and a half times its ad sales. We audited the account, rebuilt the campaigns and reworked the listings around real search data.

Starting point

Where things stood.

The brand had launched two face serums and was running ads at an ACoS of 248%. Listings were live but had been written without keyword research, and there was no clear position against the category leader.

Findings

What we found.

Ad spend was far ahead of ad sales

The first audit showed an account-level ACoS of 248%, so the first job was to stop the waste before trying to grow.

The listings were missing how shoppers search

Keyword research with Helium 10 and Search Query Performance showed clear gaps between the listing copy and the terms buyers were using.

There was an open position the leader was not covering

Competitor analysis found a skin-concern angle that the leading competitor did not address well.
