Background

HiBye’s e-commerce store

HiBye.sg is a Singapore-based florist e-commerce store known for its elegant condolence wreaths and fast same-day delivery. As a niche florist business, their primary customer base comes from urgent, time-sensitive searches — making Google Search and Performance Max (PMAX) campaigns their bread and butter.

Despite investing in digital ads, HiBye’s leadership team was still unhappy with the results of their digital marketing efforts. ROAS performance and sales consistency in particular were a major pain point.

The Challenge

When they approached the Brew team, HiBye was struggling with overly complex campaign structures which led to them feeling anxious and lost. To assist them, it was determined that serious action had to be taken.

Our experts also identified several key points that needed to be addressed urgently:

Inconsistent ROAS

While the campaigns generated sales, ROAS fluctuated around the low 3s, which wasn’t sustainable for the business’s goals. The client wanted stronger returns with minimal ad spend increases.

Client Confidence & Understanding

The client had limited knowledge about digital advertising and was highly anxious about results. Communication was a challenge — not just in reporting performance, but in bridging the knowledge gap to build trust.

Overly Complicated Campaign Setup

HiBye.sg’s Google Ads account had become bloated and inefficient. The campaign structure was fragmented, making optimisation difficult and slowing down performance improvements.

Our Approach

To drive results and rebuild confidence, the Brew Interactive team implemented a multi-layered strategy:

1. Aligning Interests and Client Education

We recognised early that performance alone wouldn’t be enough — the client’s confidence was shaken, and they needed clarity as much as they needed results. As a business owner unfamiliar with digital advertising, every dip in ROAS felt like a red flag, and the lack of transparency from past efforts only added to the anxiety.

By opening lines of communication and helping the client understand what key metrics meant in real business terms, we reduced client stress and smoothened collaboration. 

To ensure efficiency and effectiveness, the Brew team simplified HiBye’s Google ads setup

2. Campaign Consolidation for Efficiency

HiBye.sg’s Google Ads account had grown messy over time, with overlapping ad groups, unnecessary segmentation, and duplicated keywords across campaigns. This led to budget dilution, inefficient learning cycles in PMAX, and an inability to pinpoint what was actually working.

By consolidating campaigns and tightening the account structure, we gave the algorithm room to learn faster and deliver better results. Budget allocation became more focused, performance reporting more reliable, and our ability to run meaningful A/B tests drastically improved. This allowed for quicker wins and easier scaling — all while reducing unnecessary complexity

3. Reworking Ad Copy & Merchant Centre Adjustments

The original ad copy lacked emotional depth and urgency — two key components in the condolence flower niche, where purchases are often made in emotionally charged, time-sensitive situations.

Additionally, their product feed in Google Merchant Centre wasn’t fully optimised, with inconsistent titles and missing attributes that reduced product visibility.

This meant their products were either not showing up at all or appearing in irrelevant searches, leading to wasted impressions and lower click-through rates. A poorly optimised feed also limited Google’s ability to match their products with high-intent shoppers.

Results That Matters:

Stronger ROAS, Steadier Sales, and a More Confident Client

Our streamlined strategy and clear communication delivered measurable improvements that restored the client’s trust and drove meaningful business growth:

E

Consistent ROAS of 4.0+

Campaign performance stabilised, with ROAS rising above 4.0 and holding steady — a marked improvement from previous fluctuations in the low 3s.

E

Improved Sales Volume

Despite no major increase in ad spend, sales saw a noticeable uptick due to stronger targeting, sharper creatives, and a cleaner campaign structure.

E

Stronger Cross-Platform Presence

The introduction of Facebook Ads created a complementary channel that reached new customers and supported the conversion journey.

E

Enhanced Product Visibility

Merchant Centre optimisation led to higher-quality impressions on Shopping Ads, improving click-through rates and bringing in more qualified traffic.
