The challenge

Overspending and unstructured advertising strategy

BYIC faced a challenge that many fashion brands know about: They spent too much money on ineffective advertising and hit a plateau at a certain amount of spend, so that when they scaled spend, the CAC increased, and then they were the status quo again.

After a challenging year that had been overspent especially at Google, they wanted a set-up that was geared towards profit and profitable growth. They invested massively in Google and Meta without having a solid plan for how their budget was spent most efficiently. Their creative strategy was not optimized and they tested too few creatives, resulting in limited insight into what actually worked best.

In addition, BYIC had a narrow approach to their marketing mix and were present exclusively on Instagram, where they ran ads on Meta without leveraging other valuable channels like TikTok. This limited their ability to reach a wider audience and thus grew their brand more effectively.

They employed a “7-day click + 1-day view” model, often crediting their ads for sales that in reality came organically. This created a skewed picture of performance and made it difficult to assess whether increased adspend was actually profitable — and which channels contributed real, incremental growth. In addition, they lacked an accurate 3-party tool to measure which media created new customers.

The solution

Step #1 Streamlining Paid Social and Creative Development

We addressed these challenges by implementing a more strategic approach to BYIC's marketing. First of all, their marketing mix was expanded by introducing TikTok as an essential part of their funnel. This made it possible to reach new potential customers on a platform where inspirational content performs extremely well and where consumers are more receptive to new brands and products.

To improve their creative strategy, a data-based testing framework was created. This meant that BYIC was now testing 15 new creatives a week with clear objectives and hypotheses that could document what worked best. This meant that their creative strategy became much more proactive and data-driven, helping to ensure their ad crowns were spent on the most effective creatives. One of their biggest bottlenecks was making creatives which resonated with a wider target audience. Therefore, based on similar cases, we set up tests on the best performing formats — until we had a machine that both organically and through paid ads attracted far more than those who already knew the brand.


Another crucial step was to optimize attribution — both in-platform and through Triple Whale implementation. By switching from “7-day click + 1-day view” to a pure “7-day click” model, we were able to filter out a large portion of organic traffic and get a fairer view of the real ad effect. That allowed sharper, data-driven decisions about budget and returns to be made. At the same time, Triple Whale provided a clear view of which channels are actually creating new customers.

Step #2 Consolidate the entire marketing setup at FABO

Paid Search

From the start of 2025, we have consolidated the entire BYIC marketing set-up at FABO. Previously, BYIC had an outdated Skag setup, high CPCs on branded searches (up to $25), fragmented PMAX structure with no clear brand/non-brand separation, low data quality in low-budget campaigns, and a feed with generic descriptions and many Zombie SKUs.

To solve the fragmented PMAX setup and many zombies, we implemented ProfitMetrics and Shopping Booster with dynamic labels (Highly Profitable, Profitable, Low Traffic, Unprofitable), which made it possible to prioritize and allocate the budget more efficiently, avoiding ZOMIE SKUs. We also switched from ROAS optimization to POAS optimization with ProfitMetrics and adjusted target POAS based on realized POAS to ensure realistic goals and better performance. For brand searches, we changed the optimization from manual CPC to Target Impression Share by max. CPC of 1 DKK, which gave greater impression share and cheaper clicks on top positions without exceeding the budget.

Client Strategy

To optimize their marketing setup, the Client Strategy department has played a key role by implementing Triple Whale and adjusting budgeting. Triple Whale gave BYIC a clear picture of which channels are creating new customers and enabled data-driven decisions to effectively manage budget and optimize their performance.

Results

Significant growth and efficient use of budget

Despite an increase in adspend, we have managed to create a significantly more profitable set-up by allocating budget to it, which creates incremental value. This was achieved through more effective media buying, better creative strategies and an optimized funnel that ensured customers were caught in an earlier stage of awareness and were inspired to act.

In addition, the improved testing framework meant that BYIC now has a much more scalable approach to their paid social strategy. They no longer rely on a narrow audience, but can now effectively speak to new potential customers across multiple platforms. At the same time, they have better control over their attribution, allowing them to see precisely which channels are driving value.

By optimizing their paid social strategy and expanding their marketing mix, BYIC has not only grown their business, but also achieved a much more profitable and scalable model for future growth.
