Measures
Together with Webrepublic, Credit Suisse revised its search advertising strategy from the ground up. The remarketing and tracking strategies developed are geared to the specific circumstances and challenges of the financial services industry and form the basis for the cross-channel integration of marketing and advertising measures.
In addition to a new account setup, a micro-conversion setup was implemented. To optimally complement the activities in the search network after the first visible successes, Credit Suisse, with Webrepublic’s assistance, became the first financial institution in Switzerland to implement and test Google's new machine learning–based smart display campaigns. This has made it possible to significantly optimize and streamline the creative setup and control process.
