Scaling Performance on Facebook

Tempcover provides temporary insurance policies available up to 28 days across a wide range of products, from automobiles to homes. Although the company’s paid search campaigns were driving leads and showing returns on investment, its paid social channels—particularly Facebook—needed development to reach the same levels of success.

Better leveraging the intent of their search program was another big reason Tempcover wanted to explore social channels and grow the top of the funnel.  

As Tempcover’s ideal customer is only in-market for a short period of time, and with Facebook’s Ads Manager tool not providing an effective way to reach these in-market audiences with interest, behavior, or demographic targeting, executing ROI driven Facebook ad campaigns proved challenging. Beyond standard custom audience remarketing, Tempcover was hesitant to shift significant budget towards paid social unless they were confident about hitting their revenue and performance goals.

Marin’s expert guidance was invaluable in improving our performance across the board. By allowing us to connect the power of search intent with the depth and precision of Facebook advertising, we were able to put our audience targeting into high gear and exceed all our goals.
