Holy Trinity of Ecommerce Scaling
If we would have to name one biggest trend of ecommerce for the last few years it's
- decreasing returns, increasing competitions and survival of the fittest...
I know it sounds bad, but it also can be a good thing... This only means that if you really
want to hit that 7 or 8-figures mark you have to step up your game and adapt...
We have created a 3 area approach that you need to focus on if you want to be
successful in ecommerce game in 2019th which we call Holy Trinity of Ecommerce Scaling.
A LOT! A lot of people these days are under impression that Facebook Ads and other
marketing channels are dead... And yes, they are dead if that's the only thing that you are
focusing on.
EXAMPLE #1:
Let me show you a quick example what is possible then you get even 2 of these 3
holy trinity things right. This client of ours is a one example of many where we took him
from ~30 000$ revenue per month at breaking even to ~187 000$ per month just two
months later and making over 70 000$ in profit per month!
This success was a combination of website post-purchase experience optimization
and getting Facebook Ads right by utilizing advanced programmatic advertising methods
where automated robot tool we use scans the ad sets every 15 minutes and according to
the CPA and our pre-programmed rules makes adjustments to them, either scales them,
downscales them in different increments according to performance or pauses/unpauses
them.
EXAMPLE #2:
That's another of our clients examples where by combining just 2 things of Holy
Trinity right results exploded. It was a combination of website optimization (Reaching
7,7% Conversion Rate!), amazing offer and winning facebook video ad from us testing over
300 variants of it.
Part 1: Well Converting Sales Tool
At what conversion rate your current ecommerce store is converting? Are you
reaching the average 2% conversion rate?...
Even if you are, you might be leaving a lot on the table by being satisfied by just average
numbers. Reality is the leaders are currently averaging 3,5-4% conversion rate.
This would mean that any 1$ they spend on marketing would provide 2 times higher
return than average store does...
This gives them unfair advantage and enables them to scale their ad spends higher
completely dwarfing their competitors and aggressively stealing their market share.
This is exact reason why when we are working with our clients we work not only with
Advertising, but also Conversion Rate Optimization at the same time. We want our clients
to have unfair advantage in the field!
Now to give you some real value we have prepared you a quick analysis of 2 landing
pages we have found to be one of the best examples in the market. By taking a look at our
notes you will quickly start to see the similarities between them and will be able to copy
and implement them!
Landing Page Example #1
Colorful, attention
grabbing
main photo
(helps with bounce rate)
Images of product in
use
Bundling upsells
Bundling
upsells
- Do you stack social proof via "As seen in" and customer reviews?
- Do you made your product USP's very clear and in landing page experience format?
- Are you ATC button vibrant and easy to notice? (Sticky ATC for mobile is also a great
thing)

Part 2: Efficient Way to Drive Traffic
Now when we have a sales tool that outperforms the market averages we need the
most effective way to drive traffic to it. Currently there are a few main choices in the
market like Facebook/Instagram Ads, Adwords, Youtube Ads, Snapchat Ads etc.
While for the last few years there is a noticeable downtrend of ROAS (returns on ad
spend) and increase of competition Facebook still remains number one channel if you
want to scale your business exponentially and a good starting point. But to be successful
with it you need to note a few must trends in content and use of market leading
advertising methods.
You will need to be aware of two things about Facebook/Instagram Ads - Creative
Trends and Technical Trends.
Creative Trends
One of the most important things we have noticed that immediately increases your
ROAS is having high quality engaging video (we put this as a high importance as anybody
can do it and drastically improve their advertising performance).
We usually aim for 30-40s video lenght so it would be eligible for instagram placements
and due to a fact that we find the best results at this length. With longer videos CPM's
increases and with shorter ones it's sometimes hard to make a sale.
Smiling Face ++
Emotions of Customers ++
Multiple People +
Social Proof for 2-3s +++
Unique Selling Propositions +++
Showing Product in Use +++
Product Being Applied ++
Text Message's +++
Voice Message ++
Subtitles ++
Call to Action at the End for 3-5s +++
TREND #2 - USER GENERATED CONTENT
The second big trend is organic looking content created by customers. Short reviews
videos shot with iphone selfie camera, customers unboxing your product or simply them
showcasing your product in the natural light with iphone camera.
This does create and add validity to your remarketing campaigns as customers feels more
at ease when hearing a opinion or seeing the product showcased by other non-affiliated
customers. You should have 10-20 videos like that running in your remarketing funnel to
mix up the content that the warm audience is going to see.
Another big part of successful advertising campaigns are none other than the
technical aspect of advertising. There is a VITAL big trend that is happening right now! If
you miss it, this will not only stop you from scaling up your business but most likely will
even cause you huge problems with the results you are already getting.
Trend name is - Artificial Intelligence and Big Data Utilization for Your Campaigns
Reality is in the last year AI technology did evolve at the lighting speed and Facebook as
one of the biggest businesses in the world is at the frontier of this technology. One of
these technologies use is few features that Facebook have released like Campaign Budget
Optimization and Dynamic Creative.
It's goals are to optimize your ads using Artificial Intelligence to make decision about
your best Ads and whom to show what ad (Dynamic Creative) and choices about how to
best allocate the budget (Campaign Budget Optimization).
We are noticing Automatic Placements to start working considerably better. This way
leaving more ad inventory and space for AI to do it's job, thus Facebook rewarding you
with cheaper CPM's. Due to this sometimes even if specific placement does underperform
when you take it out, overall ROAS drops.
Targeting we use are also changing we are noticing bigger and not so focused audiences
of at least 10M+ work better. With some accounts who are getting 2k+ sales per month
sometimes even absolutely no targeting with just age and gender restrictions
outperforming other targeting's by a huge margin (this way you get cheap CPM's and AI
optimizes whom to show your ads)
We are also noticing a need for more quality creatives. This is exactly why we are
putting such a huge emphasis on creative part of the ads that is often overlooked.
Dynamic Creative helps tremendously when testing different video thumbnails or ad
copies, but you still need a good video on itself. This is why for our clients we have a full
dedicated video designers and editors team that helps us to push content that we need to
get results.

Part 3: A Way to Maximize Value of the Traffic
Do you think a 20M+ a year Ecom Business operates same way as the one making
just 200-300k per year? Do you think they think the same thoughts, make decisions same
way or chose same marketing strategies?...
I guarantee you – they DON’T! They are masters at utilizing omni-channel funnels to get
much better ROAS than smaller shops and utilizing this unfair advantage to bully their
smaller competitors out of the market.
It's a customers experience after he visits your store that consists of multiple advertising
channels and ways to reach the customer pre-purchase and post-purchase to maximize
the value of each and every click you drive to your store.
And this is the biggest difference between the biggest stores in the market and the
ones barely making 200-300k per year. Small stores focuses on being profitable right
here, right now and on front-end acquisition channels as Facebook Ads and Instagram Ads,
when big boys focus on being profitable in longer-term and caching in via back-end
business operations in omni-channel funnel
How Do They Work?
So how does Omni-channels and ecommerce back-end work and translate into increase in
ROAS?
This translates into 200 000$ in sales with 100 000$ spent on front-end ads and 66
666$ in product costs, resulting in just 34 000$ of profit.
This translates into 75 000$ of additional income with 30 000$ expenses on Ads and
25 000$ in product costs, resulting in additional profit of 20 000$.
STEP #3 - ADD POWERHOUSES: EMAILS AND SMS
This is where the real magic happens, with a good flows and regular email campaigns you
can add 15-30% of monthly revenue in additional sales without almost ANY marketing
expenses.
(Let's take a very conservative number of +20%) This adds + 55 000$ to your sales
without pretty much any marketing expenses!
RESULTS
This transforms 275 000$ from Facebook Ads and Adwords into 330 000$ with
marketing expenses of 130 000$, total ROAS of 2.54 and total FINAL profit of 124 000$!
This is how your profit can easily grow 4-5 times! And the best part is this - way you
can take lower ROAS on the front-end, scaling more and outbidding your
competitors, eating into their marketshare because you are still profitable when
your competitors are not!
Roots of Marketing - Emails
Roots of all digital marketing - emails are the most vital part of omni-channel funnel
(except initial awareness generation channel).
Ideally for each sale you make from your Ads in 40-50% of the cases you want to
make a second sale via emails to the same person within a year period!
As you have seen from the calculations Emails are the biggest game-changer then it comes
to ROAS and all the biggest stores are heavily utilizing it to make majority of their profit.
Weekly Newsletter
First and the simplest tool is the weekly news letter. Once or few times a week send
your customers a newsletter, special offer, valuable content and occasionally remind
them about your brand.
Usually in out experience what works the best is the formula of 2-1. 2 Pieces of
valuable content, 1 Sales Email.
You are selling glasses? Tell them about all the coatings technologies, different type of
glasses, different styles, fashion trends etc.
You are selling a health product? Tell them how to reach their desired results in other
complimentary things and as you build trust they will be buying!
Automated Email Sequences
The formula is simple: Brand Story + Value -> Discounts Stacking until they buy.
Automated Email Sequences
In our testing we have found out that delaying discounts for 1-2 days (first of all just
reminding the customers about the cart) and then regularly following up with the
customer at 8th day, 15th day and 30th day intervals can results in as much as 30-40%
effectiveness increase in abandoned carts campaigns!
RE-ENGAGEMENT SEQUENCE
Triggers when a customer haven't opened an email of visited the store in 60 days. The
goal is to either give them irresistible offer to re-engage them with the brand or to
unsubscribe them from your email list (to clean it up).
