Each held valuable individual pieces of customer data, but lacked the complete picture. This fragmented landscape created silos, hindering effective collaboration and decision-making. The brand needed a unified solution, a single source of truth to unlock its full potential.

Product-Led Growth Demands User Insights: As a platform built on a strong Product-Led Growth (PLG) strategy, the brand navigated a vast pool of free users. The challenge was identifying high-value individuals with a high propensity to convert to paid plans. To achieve this, the brand required granular product behavior data readily available to business teams.

The Solution with EasyInsights

Using EasyInsights, the brand combined customer data into Amazon Redshift to create a single source of truth. Through EasyInsights, the brand's marketing tools were able to access this unified data, which allowed them to create a comprehensive Customer 360 view that connected users across all platforms.

By feeding Google and Facebook Ads with first-party data using EasyInsights, the brand provided these platforms with better information to maximize Return on Ad Spend (ROAS) on their behalf.

Implementation

When ad platforms receive more reliable data, the outcomes are remarkable. The brand slashed its customer acquisition costs by 50% within six months by utilizing EasyInsights to supply first-party data from Amazon Redshift to Google and Facebook Ads.

However, The brand faced a significant timing challenge. They had only about 14 days after an ad click to optimize a Google campaign and fully utilize the platform's machine learning capabilities.

Instead of waiting months for a paid conversion, the brand's data and marketing teams work together to improve ad targeting through predictive modelling.

Initially, they forecasted the expected Lifetime Value (LTV) of each workspace "owner" by analyzing data from the user's first 12 days of activity and demographic information. These forecasts are saved directly in Amazon RedShift as part of the customer's comprehensive profile.

They then use EasyInsights to transmit these predicted LTV values to Google and Facebook Ads as conversion values. This optimisation improves the effectiveness of the campaigns that generated leads.
