How search increased revenue for one SMB

Recently Sheet Music Plus adopted the Marin Professional suite of tools to its search program. Through the implementation they saw increased conversions of 150%, a near doubling of their revenue and CPCs lessened by 30%

"With over 720,000 unique pieces of music, we recognized we had an opportunity to scale our search marketing program and deliver more revenue by targeting product-specific keywords," said Charles Moehnke, Search Marketing Manager at Sheet Music Plus. "Unfortunately, we were hampered by slow manual processes and poor campaign visibility. Deploying Marin Professional was a breath of fresh air. The predictive bidding, creative testing and advanced reporting features of Marin allowed us to significantly expand our online marketing program."

The Marin Software platform includes recommendations, testing options and optimization features for paid search, display and social options. Since the March 2011 roll-out of Marin Professional more than 300 brands around the world have signed on to the program.

"Regardless of budget size, online advertising is a competitive, hotly contested market. Mid-market advertisers, however, typically have limited resources at their disposal to succeed in this environment," said Matt Lawson, vice president of marketing and partnerships at Marin Software. "Marin Professional offers mid-market advertisers an intuitive, easy-to-deploy application that includes all of the powerful enterprise capabilities that they need to be successful."

On average Marin Software reports a 20% lift in revenue for its clients.
