Relais & Châteaux increased ROI on bookings by 18% with digital advertising

THE CHALLENGE

To improve the performance of their advertising campaigns, Relais & Châteaux decided to entrust Cendyn with the management of its Google Ads campaigns. The objective of the collection was to:

  • Improve the return on investment of their campaigns
  • Rationalize the investments of their “Brand + Gift” campaigns
  • Understand and track their campaigns’ strategy and performance

Ads improvements 

  • Creating text ads
  • Increasing the quality level
  • Adding multiple extensions

Targeting optimization

  • Target market
  • Campaign type

Keyword optimization

  • Optimizing DSA campaigns
