9. CustomerActivation Strategy
According to Etsy sellers, an estimated 75% of buyers are female. Since we need to target men, we need to
branch out into other channels in order to get them in the top of the funnel.
• Run a Facebook ad campaign
• Target male, 28-40 homeowners who like craft beer, home brewing, home bars, craft beer brands (Dogfish Head,
Stone, Jack’s Abby, etc) and kegerators.
• Facebook ads will feature a photo of the tap handle and go straight to the listing.
• Set up landing pages
• Etsy doesn’t have a way to set up landing pages, so we’d need to create a standalone website.
• Landing page will collect name, email address and role.
• Core resource will be downloadable after form submit.
10. Core Resource
Whitepaper:The Definitive Guide to
BuildingYour First Home Bar
• PDF format
• Striking examples of home bar setups,
accompanied by tutorials.
• Downloadable, behind a landing page
with email signup form.
11. Customer Retention Plan
• Monthly newsletter
• Featured custom product
• Events at liquor stores, beer festivals
• Craft beer news/reviews
• Promotional codes for discounts
• Social media engagement
• Share tap handle and beer photos on Instagram
• Engage in conversations with fans on Facebook
• Retargeting
• Paid display ads featuring product(s) the prospect
viewed previously
• MoFu Core Resource
• Seasonal beer guides
• Interesting barware and decor.
12. AdWords Experiment
• Campaign:Tapp3d Kick-off
• April 19-20, 2015
• Goal: Experiment with keywords and see how much traffic
a PPC campaign could bring in.
• Targeted locations: US & Canada
• Budget: $100/day (free AdWords credit)
• 1Ad group: “CustomTap Handles”
• Keywords:
• kegerator tap handles, custom tap handles for
kegerator, beer tap handles for sale, home bar
decorations, custom tap handles, home bar décor
• Theory: “Kegerator” might be a great keyword to try out in
our listings, since we don’t use that keyword at all yet.
14. Overall Results
• Impressions: 1849
• Clicks: 24
• CTR: 1.30%
• Avg CPC: $4.70
• Avg Position: 1
• Overall Cost: $112.82
• Revenue: $0 (due to lack of products in shop)
VERDICT: CPC isn’t great for us in this early
stage. It’s too expensive now, but we may revisit
it later.
