Elevating Lead Quality Through Data-Driven Innovation

The Challenge

Magnitude, a premium market leading finance brand, that provides bespoke car finance for prestige and performance vehicle owners, needed a strategy that could adapt to shifting market conditions while improving lead quality. Amid shifting market conditions, their goal was to enhance lead quality and optimise campaign efficiency amid shifting market conditions.

Black Lab Digital’s unwavering reliability and innovative methods have been pivotal. Their ability to adapt to market shifts which they’re always keeping abreast of, while maintaining a strategic focus has transformed how we operate.

The Results

The proportion of qualified prime leads rose from 37% in 2023 to 65% in 2024, reflecting a significant improvement in lead quality. Despite a 6% reduction in spend, the customer base grew by 20% YoY. These achievements highlighted the power of data-driven decision-making and flexible strategies.

 

The Solution

The previous account optimisation focused solely on form submissions, overlooking the potential of offline data. Additionally, tough market conditions called for innovative mid-funnel strategies.

Black Lab Digital introduced Demand Generation as a mid-funnel lead generator, bridging the gap during market downturns. The team also moved to exclusively bid on offline conversions, shifting the focus from forms to deeper funnel metrics. Testing value-based bidding against CPA bidding further refined the approach, aligning strategies with Magnitude’s business goals.

These results demonstrate the power of combining innovative digital strategies with deep data analysis. By focusing on quality over quantity and adapting to market conditions, we've helped Magnitude achieve substantial growth while optimising their marketing investment."
