Overall SEM Costs Down 38% for Specialty Coffee Retailer Since
Switch From Previous SEM Vendor SAN MATEO, Calif., June 20
/PRNewswire/ -- Coremetrics, the leading provider of hosted web
analytics and precision marketing solutions, today announced that
Peet's Coffee & Tea, Inc. (NASDAQ:PEET), a specialty coffee
roaster and marketer, has engaged Coremetrics Search Services as
part of an initiative to improve the performance of its search
engine marketing (SEM) efforts. Major goals in partnering include
increasing revenue, acquiring new customers, and managing
profitability. "We had very limited resources for SEM and needed to
optimize spending," said Brian Platter, general manager of home
delivery, Peet's Coffee & Tea, Inc. "Coremetrics Search
Services provides the tools and expertise we need to obtain maximum
value for every dollar we spend on Search. The results speak for
themselves. After a two-month optimization period with Coremetrics,
we saw a 310 percent increase in revenue and 665 percent ROI for
SEM campaigns, compared with the performance of our previous SEM
vendor. Our overall SEM costs are down 38 percent and we've reduced
cost per click to about a third of previous levels." Coremetrics
Search Marketing Services provides clients with fully outsourced
management of pay per click search marketing campaigns leveraging
proven best practices and deep expertise in behavioral analysis.
Coremetrics analysts worked closely with Peet's to identify
keywords that would resonate with potential customers based on site
behavior patterns. The team also used Search to target customers
for the company's Peetniks loyalty program, having certain terms
trigger sponsored links with copy to encourage existing and new
customers to sign up for recurring deliveries. The strong
partnership that developed between the two companies during the
optimization period enabled timely response to an opportunity for
the Peet's to be featured on a highly popular, national talk show.
In less than a week the team developed and launched a coordinated
search campaign for this opportunity, resulting in impressive new
customer acquisition. "Search marketing continues to be an
important tool for generating traffic to an ecommerce site," said
Joe Davis, president and CEO of Coremetrics. "The purpose of
Coremetrics Search Marketing Services is to help companies like
Peet's optimize search engine marketing to attract highly qualified
traffic while reducing costs per click through improved targeting.
As we've worked through the optimization process, the relationship
between the two companies has matured, deepening our insight into
what keywords and campaigns work best for attracting visitors to
the site and converting them to loyal customers." About Coremetrics
