Your paid budget isn't broken. Your strategy is.
Barcelona ecommerce brands waste €3,200/month on campaigns that don't convert. We make every pound and dollar work harder.
📍 Barcelona Market Insight: Barcelona's 98,000 SMBs compete fiercely for attention across Meta, Google Shopping, and search. The city's tech, fashion, and tourism sectors drive high customer acquisition costs (€85–€220 per lead), but most brands lack coherent retargeting strategies or product-feed optimization. Digital maturity varies wildly: established players in El Poblenou and Gràcia outpace newer competitors. The real gap isn't traffic—it's conversion efficiency.

Recognise Any of These?
These are the most common digital marketing challenges we see in Barcelona's ecommerce sector — and the hidden costs most businesses don't realise they're paying.
“Your Google Shopping and Meta campaigns deliver clicks but few sales.”
Poor product-feed quality and lack of audience segmentation. You're bidding on everyone, converting almost no one.
€800–€1,600/month wasted on irrelevant clicks. A 2.1:1 ROAS when top performers hit 4.8:1.
“Organic traffic to product pages is flatline. You see no growth month-on-month.”
Competitors are investing in SEO and paid search aggressively. You're visible only to repeat visitors.
Lost market share in growing categories (fashion, tech). New customer acquisition stalls. CAC rises 20%+ YoY.
“You recover almost no revenue from abandoned carts. No email sequences, no retargeting pixels.”
No systematic retargeting strategy. Cart abandonment is treated as lost, not as a conversion lever.
30–40% of revenue left on the table. A single retargeting campaign could recover €2,000–€5,000/month.
How We Get You Results
No mystery. No black box. Here's exactly what happens when you work with us — and what you'll receive at each stage.
Audit & Competitive Map
Week 1–2We analyse your Google Ads, Meta campaigns, product feed, and tracking setup. Then we benchmark you against Barcelona ecommerce leaders in your vertical (tech, fashion, tourism, biotech, real estate). We identify leaks, missed opportunities, and quick wins.
20-page Performance Audit + Competitive Positioning Report
Feed & Audience Strategy
Week 2–3We optimise your Google Shopping feed for relevance and feed-level segmentation. In parallel, we build audience tiers: cold, warm (site visitors), cart abandoners, and high-value repeat buyers. Each tier gets distinct messaging and bid strategies.
Optimised Product Feed + Audience Segmentation Framework + Google Ads Structure Doc
Campaign Build & Launch
Week 3–4We build performance-focused campaigns: Shopping, Search, and Brand Defence on Google; Conversion and Retargeting on Meta. We deploy dynamic creative, automated bidding, and pixel-based retargeting. First campaigns go live with conservative budgets; we monitor and iterate daily.
Live Campaign Suite + Daily Performance Dashboard + Real-Time Bid Adjustment Docs
Retargeting & Cart Recovery
Week 4–5We set up email sequences for cart abandoners (triggered at 4h, 24h, 72h). We layer display retargeting across Google and Meta. We test dynamic product ads and urgency messaging (stock, discount expiry). Conversion uplift typically starts in week 2–3.
Cart Recovery Email Sequence + Retargeting Pixel Setup + Dynamic Ad Creative Library
Optimisation & Reporting
OngoingWeekly performance reviews. We refine bids, pause underperformers, expand winners, and A/B test creative and messaging. Monthly strategy calls: we review ROAS, CAC, LTV, and feed health. Quarterly deep-dives on seasonal opportunities and Barcelona-specific market shifts (tourism peaks, fashion cycles, tech events).
Weekly Performance Snapshots + Monthly Strategy Reports + Quarterly Roadmap
After 90 days, your paid campaigns are efficient, coordinated, and measurable. You recover 20–30% of abandoned cart revenue, see 40–60% ROAS improvement on Meta, and reduce customer acquisition cost by 25–35%. You have a scalable, data-driven machine—not a collection of ad accounts.
Barcelona Ecommerce Success Stories
A Barcelona-based fashion ecommerce brand selling contemporary womenswear. Founded 2019, €800k annual revenue, competing against fast-fashion giants in social and search.
Meta campaigns returning 1.8:1 ROAS. Google Shopping underperforming due to poor feed quality and thin-margin SKUs. Cart abandonment rate 72% with zero recovery strategy. No differentiation between first-time and repeat audiences.
- →Segmented product feed by margin tier and seasonality; prioritised high-margin basics and statement pieces in Shopping campaigns.
- →Built audience tiers: cold (Lookalike + Interests), warm (site visitors + email list), hot (cart abandoners + repeat buyers). Deployed separate Meta campaigns with distinct creative and messaging for each tier.
- →Implemented 72-hour cart recovery email sequence + Meta dynamic retargeting with urgency messaging ('Only 2 left in your size'). Tested discount vs. free-shipping offers.
“We were throwing money at ads without a plan. Omakaase showed us that our problem wasn't traffic—it was conversion efficiency. The cart recovery alone paid for the entire engagement in month two. Now we scale confidently.”
A Barcelona tech-retail business selling consumer electronics and smart home devices. 4-year-old brand, €1.2m revenue, heavy Google Shopping reliance but losing market share to larger competitors.
Google Shopping CTR declining (1.2% vs. 1.8% industry avg). Product feed bloated with low-intent SKUs. No strategic bid allocation between high-margin (smart home) and low-margin (cables, accessories) products. Search campaigns cannibalizing Shopping performance.
- →Rebuilt product feed with smart categorisation and custom labels. Separated high-margin smart home devices into dedicated Shopping campaign with 3x budget allocation. Paused or bid-suppressed commodity items (cables, chargers).
- →Restructured Search campaigns to capture high-intent queries ('smart home Barcelona', 'WiFi router price') with brand + category bidding. Added negative keywords to prevent Self-Shopping cannibalization.
- →Launched cold-audience Meta campaign targeting tech-buyers and early adopters (lookalike from email list). Tested educational content (product setup, smart-home guides) vs. direct-sale creative.
“We were trying to sell everything to everyone. Separating smart home from commodity items was obvious in hindsight—but we needed Omakaase to show us the data. The ROI improvement is real and sustained. We're reinvesting profits into scaling.”
