- 01The challenge
CPL had a semi-successful digital marketing plan but wanted someone to wholly own their Google Ads channel and work with them through their busiest period of the year; winter.
Off the back of a long, heavy winter the previous year, CPL wanted to make sure they saw continued growth and to consolidate their position as the UK's largest retailer.
- 02The solution

- 03The results
