Case challenge —

Finding Ways How To Advertise a Bookstore with AI Optimization

Campusbokhandeln is a bookshop based in Sweden focused on selling a wide range of scholarly books to students and academics. The store sells both new and second-hand books and is focused on being an environmentally friendly bookseller.

They faced a challenge with their website, campusbokhandeln.se: standing out from the tough competition in the category with its extensive product range. Campusbokhandeln did not seek a solution on how to write ad copy that sells books. They were looking for a broader strategic approach to stand out on Google Shopping.

They needed to:

  • Optimize their product listings effectively
  • Increase their return on ad spend (ROAS),
  • And improve the overall performance of their digital marketing campaigns.

To achieve all that, they came to BrightBid for help.

Bidbrain analyzes huge amounts of data and drove actionable insights into new Google Shopping approaches for Campusbokhandeln.
