The challenge

Perk needed to launch and scale its new expense management product across paid search in a way that drove not just lead volume, but stronger pipeline quality, more qualified opportunities, and better long-term revenue potential.

That meant building the right foundations from the ground up: launching completely new campaigns with clear campaign structures, sharper ICP focused targeting, data signals, new landing pages, and a roadmap of optimisations designed to improve deeper-funnel performance across markets.

Executive Summary

As Perk brought its new expense management product to market, Google and Microsoft Ads were launched and scaled from scratch to support growth across multiple markets, with a strong focus on pipeline quality, structure, and scalability.

Building the foundations for expense management growth

Perk needed a paid search setup that could support the growth of its expense management product within a broader travel and spend ecosystem. The account was reworked around a clearer campaign structure, stronger intent mapping, and a more scalable market-by-market approach. A key priority was making sure expense management growth could happen without cannibalising travel activity, while creating a cleaner foundation for long-term expansion.

Improving lead quality and pipeline fit

Beyond scaling visibility, the focus was on improving the quality of demand entering the funnel. I refined keyword targeting to better match Perk’s ideal customer profile and align more closely with sales expectations, helping improve lead-to-SQL efficiency and strengthen downstream pipeline quality.

At the same time, I developed campaign structures and data signals that gave Google better inputs to optimise towards stronger company fit and more valuable pipeline outcomes rather than lead volume alone.

Launching a stronger multi-market growth engine

To support growth across markets, new benefit-led expense management landing pages were created, alongside revised campaign messaging designed to pre-qualify clicks and better communicate the product's value. This helped strengthen the go-to-market approach across existing regions while also supporting the expansion of the expense product into France and Spain. The result was a more scalable paid search engine built to support international growth across Google and Microsoft Ads.
