The problem

Turning interest in online baking into paid enrolments

AnybodyCanBake needed to reach potential learners and turn their interest into direct course purchases. There were no earlier recorded Google Ads campaigns to provide a performance baseline.

  • Reach relevant learners: The advertising needed to connect with people interested in the school’s online baking offering.

  • Give people a reason to enrol: The ads and landing pages needed to help prospective learners understand the offer and take the next step.

  • Measure purchases: The objective was paid enrolments, rather than clicks or enquiry volume alone.

What we did

Work on the ads and the page together

We managed Google Search and Display campaigns with direct course purchases as the objective. The work covered both how people reached the website and the pages they saw after clicking.

  • Keyword changes: We revised the keywords used in the campaigns to support the course-purchase objective.

  • Ad and targeting changes: We changed the ads and targeting to improve how the learning offer was presented to potential students.

  • Landing page changes: We changed the landing pages as part of the same campaign effort, rather than treating the ad click as the end of the journey.
