Case Study: \"By Appointment Only\" Custom Jeweler

When an "appointment only" jeweler came knocking, seeking to connect with every multi-millionaire in LA, we stepped into the world of luxury goods for the very first time. It was our inaugural venture into tailoring ads exclusively for the wealthiest individuals in a specific area, demanding a creative touch unlike the broader campaigns we usually handle, where tens of thousands could be potential customers.

Finding buyers in the elite league of luxury watches and jewelry required a unique approach. Presenting our client's offer was a delicate dance, distinct from the larger-scale campaigns we're accustomed to. It was all about precision, exclusivity, and crafting an experience tailored for those with the most discerning tastes and standards.

Our starting point was critical – choosing a singular offer that would allow us to target a custom audience and ensure a fantastic return on investment (ROI). We opted for a strategy that not only proved straightforward but also promised substantial rewards: focusing on buyers of engagement rings and wedding rings, a niche that's not only easy to target but also incredibly lucrative.

Leveraging our access to 70+ data partners, creating an initial audience comprised of the wealthiest individuals in LA was a breeze. To refine this audience further, we combined income data with marital status data, ensuring a powerful foundation.

However, we didn't stop there. To truly identify individuals actively in the market, we turned to their browsing habits. Anyone in our broad audience (wealthy and engaged) who Googled relevant keywords or frequented bridal and wedding sites became our prime targets. We wanted to capture not just interest but active intent.

But here's the masterstroke – we extended our reach to the spouses of everyone in this custom audience. Recognizing the significant role they play in the buying process, we made sure to cover all bases and ensure a comprehensive approach to our marketing strategy.

The primary objective of this campaign was to secure appointments, and to achieve this, we leveraged the premium ad inventory available to us. Our approach was simple yet effective – we ran clear, classy ads on websites within both the luxury and wedding spaces.

We meticulously curated a list of approximately 500 sites, focusing on the most-read and highly relevant articles in these domains. Our priority was to ensure that our ads graced the pages with the most impact.

Consistency was key. We wanted our client's brand and message to be ever-present in the minds of every individual in our custom audience. To achieve this, we strategically displayed our client's ads on every device – whether our prospects were researching from their smartphone, tablet, or desktop, our client was there, making a lasting impression at every turn.

Their investment strategy is straightforward but impactful. Spending $6,000 for 400,000 impressions each month, they've found the sweet spot that works for them. Interestingly, this is their sole venture into paid marketing.

The results speak volumes. With an average of 1,000-1,500 clicks to their landing/appointment page, running three distinct campaigns (engagement/wedding rings, watches, jewelry), they secure an impressive 60-80 appointments monthly. What's more, many of these appointments convert into immediate sales.

What sets their approach apart is the strategic construction of custom audiences. By capturing everyone newly entering the market, their campaign remains dynamic and consistently productive, ensuring it never hits a plateau.

Their triumph with BIG data and premium ad inventory illuminated the path forward in the luxury realm. Inspired by their success, we've replicated similar triumphs with campaigns for supercar dealerships and luxury travel agents.

After exploring various avenues to reach the super-wealthy, it's crystal clear – nothing else comes close. Our approach stands as the singular method to reach these individuals at scale, in real-time, precisely when they're ready to make a purchase. That, my friend, is a formidable competitive advantage.
