Cash4Gold Online Marketing Case Study
MONITORED DATES: SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 2008
SUNDAY, MARCH 16, 2008
In February, Tandem Interactive initiated a new relationship
with Cash4Gold.com, a company that services those wishing to trade
in their precious metals for cash. Tandem Interactive and Cash4Gold
agreed to perform a three-week case study and to track and report
the results of that study.
Tandem Interactive made a variety of recommendations to Cash4Gold,
and monitored Search Engine activity among the major Engines –
Google, Yahoo, and MSN. Because of Tandem Interactive’s
personal services specific to Cash4Gold, the company was able
to afford to increase their spending significantly, which also
pushed the average cost per click (CPC) down.
By utilizing Tandem Interactive’s personal consulting services
over the three-week period, leads more than tripled.
As a result of the increase in leads, Cash4Gold saw the significance
of Search Engine Optimization and Marketing and made the decision
to increase their spending even further. By using Tandem Interactive
as an outsourced service, Cash4Gold was able to both save money
and apply those savings directly to further optimization. By using
Tandem Interactive’s guidance, Cash4Gold received an increased
Search Engine presence – often receiving the #1 Search Engine
slot as a result of using Tandem Interactive’s recommended
keywords and phrases.
Due to the increased spend, and working directly with experts
at Tandem Interactive, Cash4Gold was able to increase leads and
lower the cost per lead (CPL). Cash4Gold admitted that because
it outsourced its Search Engine Optimization needs to Tandem Interactive,
it was able to spend more effectively to improve its overall business.
Jeff Aronson, Cash4Gold's President, said "the personal service
provided by Joe Laratro has helped us capitialize on every market
fluctutation in Gold. Working directly with the expert has decreased
our cost per lead and increased the amount of leads for our spend.
Joe Laratro and Tandem Interactive have our Gold Stamp
of approval for our online marketing services."
