Leading Global Beauty E-commerce
Click-through Rate Increased by 47.6%

Client Background

BeautyGlow is a leading global beauty e-commerce platform with over 5 million active users, selling products from more than 200 brands worldwide. As a growth-oriented company, BeautyGlow invests over $8 million annually in digital advertising, but the team has been facing challenges such as low creative production efficiency, declining click-through rates, and rising customer acquisition costs.

In the highly competitive e-commerce environment, BeautyGlow needs to continuously produce a large number of personalized advertisements to attract potential customers in different market segments. However, the traditional advertising production process cannot meet such demands. The team typically requires 2-3 weeks to complete a full advertising series, severely limiting market response speed and A/B testing capabilities.

Challenges Faced

Despite its strong market position, BeautyGlow faced several critical challenges in its advertising operations:

• Lengthy Creative Production Cycles : Creating personalized ad creatives for thousands of products was time-consuming, with each campaign requiring 1-2 weeks of preparation time.
• Complex Cross-Platform Management : Managing campaigns across multiple advertising platforms (Google Ads, Facebook, Instagram, and local platforms) required significant manual effort and specialized knowledge.
• Declining Click-Through Rates (CTR) : Ad performance had plateaued, with CTR declining by approximately 15% year-over-year due to increased competition and ad fatigue.
• Resource Constraints : A marketing team of 25 people was struggling to handle the increasing complexity and volume of digital advertising operations.
• Advertising ROI Pressure : Rising customer acquisition costs and increasing competition were putting pressure on advertising ROI, requiring more efficient and effective ad spend.

BeautyGlow approached PerfectClick with these challenges, seeking a solution that could automate their advertising processes, improve creative efficiency, and enhance overall campaign performance.

3. Multi-Platform Management System

   Development of a centralized dashboard allowing BeautyGlow to manage campaigns across Google Ads, Facebook, Instagram, and local platforms from a single interface, with automated publishing capabilities.

4. Smart A/B Testing Framework
