Chasing Attention Instead of Intent

---

01 — The Brand

Luxe Jewellery is a fine and demi-fine jewellery brand creating timeless, handcrafted pieces designed to tell personal stories.

Unlike fast-fashion impulse buys, jewellery is a deeply considered purchase:

• Customers browse multiple collections
• They compare metal grades (14k gold vermeil, solid sterling silver)
• They check authenticity and return guarantees
• When ready, they actively search for the exact piece they fell in love with

Luxe was spending thousands on Meta (Facebook and Instagram) prospecting ads, successfully generating curiosity and brand discovery.

The brand was winning attention on social media, but completely missing the moment when curiosity turned into buying intent.

02 — The Challenge

High demand creation with almost zero demand capture.

Before Technostripe stepped in, the brand relied exclusively on cold social prospecting:

• CPC — $1.60
  Click costs were steep for cold, non-intent social traffic.
• CTR — 0.8%
  Acceptable for top-of-funnel browsing, but weak downstream conversion.
• CAC — $95
  Against a $140 average order value, acquisition ate over 67% of front-end revenue.
• ROAS — 2.0x
  Barely viable after high manufacturing and precious metal costs.
• Frequency — 3.1
  Audiences were repeatedly prompted on social media without an intent capture channel to close the sale.

When a customer saw an ad, remembered the brand a week later, and typed "gold huggie earrings" or "Luxe Jewellery" into Google, Luxe was nowhere to be found. Competitors were bidding on their keywords and poaching ready-to-buy customers.

03 — The Diagnosis

The missing piece was intent capture and on-page trust signals.

Technostripe analyzed the cross-channel journey and discovered two major leaks:

1. Zero Search & Shopping Presence: Luxe had zero Google Search or Google Shopping campaigns running. Shoppers who wanted to buy immediately were intercepted by competitors on search engines.
2. Trust Deficit on Product Pages: Fine jewellery requires confidence. When visitors reached Shopify PDPs, critical reassurance — hallmark certifications, anti-tarnish warranties, real customer reviews, and clear 30-day return policies — were buried in footers or missing entirely.

Social media created the desire. But without search capture and on-site trust, customers hesitated and bought elsewhere.

04 — The Strategy

Create demand. Capture intent. Earn the conversion with trust.

Technostripe engineered a connected multi-channel acquisition flywheel:

Meta Social Ads (Create Demand)
       ↓
Google Search & Shopping (Capture High Intent)
       ↓
Cross-Channel Retargeting (Re-engage Evaluators)
       ↓
Trust-Rich Shopify PDP (Close the Sale with Confidence)

Each channel was assigned a clear purpose:

• Social: Spark desire and introduce signature collections.
• Search & Shopping: Intercept high-intent searchers typing specific jewellery styles.
• Shopify Storefront: Strip away trust barriers next to the buy button.

05 — What We Changed

01. High-Intent Google Search & Shopping

We launched high-converting Google Shopping and Search campaigns targeting bottom-of-funnel keywords (e.g., "14k gold hoops," "waterproof tarnish-free necklace").

02. Story-Driven Social Prospecting

We refined Meta ad creatives to focus on emotional gifting moments, styling tutorials, and craftsmanship close-ups.

03. Trust-First Shopify PDP Rebuild

We placed hallmark certifications, 2-year anti-tarnish warranties, ethically sourced gemstone badges, and 30-day risk-free return guarantees immediately below the Add to Cart button.

04. Unified Cross-Channel Retargeting

Shoppers who browsed via Google or Meta received synchronized retargeting with customer review videos and unboxing testimonials.

06 — The Transformation

From single-channel dependency to an omnipresent acquisition system.

Before: Leaky & Uncaptured

1. Cold user sees Instagram ad
2. Likes product, but isn't ready to buy on impulse
3. Later searches Google for the piece
4. Competitor ad appears first; customer buys from competitor
5. Luxe pays for the click, competitor gets the sale ($95 CAC)

After: Omnipresent & High-Converting

1. User discovers brand on Meta
2. Later searches Google for style name or brand
3. Luxe Google Shopping ad appears at #1 position
4. Customer lands on trust-rich PDP with verified warranties
5. Confident purchase completed ($27 CAC at 5.8x ROAS)

07 — What Changed in the Numbers

Capturing existing search demand slashed CAC by 71% and nearly tripled ROAS.

Metric	Before	After	Impact
CPC	$1.60	$0.90	44% reduction across blended channels
CTR	0.8%	1.7%	+112% increase in creative engagement
CAC	$95	$27	71% reduction in customer acquisition cost
ROAS	2.0x	5.8x	+190% surge in blended return on ad spend

• CAC dropped from $95 to $27, allowing the brand to scale marketing spend fourfold while increasing net profit.
• Blended ROAS reached 5.8x, backed by high-intent Google Search converting at over 7.2x ROAS.
• On-site PDP Conversion Rate climbed by 41% after integrating verified certification badges and transparent warranty guarantees.

08 — The Outcome

An acquisition ecosystem that captures demand at every stage.

Luxe Jewellery broke free of one-dimensional advertising:

• Dominant search visibility capturing customers when intent is at its highest
• A Shopify storefront that builds instant credibility and trust
• A sustainable acquisition model that compounds month over month
