Implementation

For Praktiker several different measures of Online-Marketing are used to reach wide range and sale. Initially, single Google AdWords campaigns for all articles of the Online-Shop were designed, written, constantly controlled and broadened.

At the same time, display advertising started, which means broadcasting advertisement on webpages, in order to get into the client´s Relevant Set. Therefore different campaigns were realized, for example with Boris Becker as Testimonial or even for single articles and promotion such as in gardening season.

With the wide reach of the display campaign, another Online channel converts, which is the Re-Targeting campaign: users who interrupt shopping can be  tagged and found afterwards. With advertising banners their attention can be drawn back to the Praktiker Online-Shop.
