The Strategy
Primo Sport’s explosive growth came from a blend of signal precision, creative diversity, and structured automation.
Attribution & Signal Clarity
We began by switching to a 7-Day Click (7DC) attribution model. This gave Meta a more accurate picture of true buying behaviour, capturing delayed conversions from colder audiences and providing richer data for campaign learning. This shift was critical for stabilising performance as we scaled spend.
Creative Diversity
To fuel Meta’s Andromeda algorithm, we focused heavily on creative breadth. We introduced a wide rotation of UGC, product-led, and lifestyle creative, delivering across multiple hooks and placements. This variety reduced ad fatigue and improved relevance, allowing us to maintain efficiency even as we tripled traffic volume.
Structure & Automation
Operationally, we restructured the account around Advantage+ Shopping Campaigns (ASC) and catalogue campaigns, broken out by product and collection. This provided visibility on SKU-level performance and allowed for agile budget movement—scaling best-sellers aggressively while controlling spend where performance softened.
Cross-Platform Unity
Beyond Meta, Google Ads were rebuilt to align with the same efficiency framework. Campaigns were consolidated for stronger signal flow, and keyword segmentation was refined to prioritize profitable categories. This created a unified system where paid search captured the increased demand generated by paid social.

The Success
The results have been transformative. Between January 1 and Dec 31, Primo Sport achieved a 631% uplift in total sales and a 515% increase in orders year-on-year.
Sessions grew by 262%, but crucially, order volume grew twice as fast as traffic, reflecting a massive improvement in traffic quality and on-site efficiency.
Cross-platform consistency was the key driver. Meta and Google worked in tandem to maintain stable ROAS while scaling volume, proving that with the right structure, you don’t have to choose between growth and efficiency—you can have both.
