Success Story

With a top-funnel strategy covering Interest, Consideration and Conversion phases, we grew shop revenue by 66% in 2025.

Key to this was steering the purchase decision in favour of ARCTA using trust factors and content creators.

On Meta, we grew revenue after 7DC from 2024 to 2025 by 228% at 152.8% more ad spend. Compared to 2026, with only 38.3% more ad spend, revenue after 7DC is already up 176.5% year-on-year.

Execution

By deliberately deploying all content formats to their respective funnel stages, we continuously grew revenue.

Over 50% of budget is shifted into the content format critical for products requiring explanation: "UGC Ads". Prospects who have already engaged are targeted with ads that reveal more information about the products. Once a specific funnel stage is reached, people are directed to the showrooms or a dedicated consultation to close the sale.

Funnel Deployment
Interest · UGC Ads as the primary format

Over 50% of the budget flows into UGC Ads — the format that works best for products needing explanation: real voices, real setup, real application in everyday outdoor life.

Consideration · Retargeting with more information

Prospects who have previously engaged are targeted with ads that dive deeper into materials, setup, and use cases — matching their current phase in the decision-making process.

Conversion · Showroom & consultation to close

Once a specific funnel phase is reached, people are directed to the showrooms or a special consultation — to purposefully close the sale given the high shopping cart values.

Campaign Setup
Separate campaigns per product category and funnel stage

The setup is divided into individual campaigns per product category and funnel — a clean separation instead of all-in-one campaigns whose learning phases become blurred.

Separate targeting per segment

Every campaign uses its own targeting within its segment — audiences, creatives, and messages are tailored to the respective category and phase.

Separate learning phases per campaign objective

Depending on the campaign objective, the algorithm can develop clean, independent learning phases — thereby delivering better performance in its segment instead of cannibalizing each other.

Trust Engine The funnel mechanism is supported by trust factors such as the 4.9 rating with over 330 TrustPilot reviews — the argument that carries the most weight in the consideration phase when the cart value runs to four or five figures.
