PROMOTIONAL CAMPAIGN

November, year over year.

Comparing the November 2024 promotion with November 2023: ROAS increased by 36%, CTR increased by 25% and cost per result decreased by 20%. CPC remained unchanged.

GOOGLE ADS

Brand & broader searches.

The branded campaign achieved 16.76 ROAS, 14.91% CTR and a 10.75% conversion rate. The broad collagen campaign generated 86 conversions, with 3.66 ROAS and 6.48% CTR.

CAMPAIGN TESTING

Testing assumptions.

For a new product under an established brand, I compared Advantage+ with broad targeting against a ROAS objective of 4.0 or higher. Broad targeting performed better across most measured metrics.

META ADS · CREATIVE & CAMPAIGN MANAGEMENT

SELECTED CASE STUDY

From the creative
to the campaign.

Themed product bundles for the Croatian market. A regular campaign without promotional discounts, managed from ad copy and visuals through campaign setup, audience selection and ongoing optimisation.

MY ROLE · Creative production · Copywriting · Campaign setup · Audience selection · Budget management · Optimisation

Selected individual ad results reported by Meta Ads Manager. Each figure belongs to the ad shown, rather than the campaign as a whole. Ads may have different delivery durations. Purchase ROAS reflects attributed order value, including VAT and shipping; it is not a measure of profit.

A SELECTION OF WHAT I DO

From the idea
to the screen.

EXPLORING ANOTHER SIDE OF CREATIVITY

A story beyond
the campaign.

A practical mind.

I enjoy combining creative work with the practical side of digital marketing.

View my CV ↗

I’m a digital marketer based in Ljubljana, originally from Krk, Croatia. I’m open to relocation for the right opportunity, including Zagreb, and interested in flexible or hybrid collaborations. For the past seven years, I’ve worked across paid advertising, email marketing, content and ecommerce.

At Gaia Adria, I work on campaigns for Gaia Naturelle across regional markets: planning and optimising Meta and Google Ads, creating visuals and videos, managing email campaigns and updating Shopify and WordPress content.

Alongside campaigns and creative work, I spend a substantial part of my time on Shopify and technical tasks: connecting tools, checking integrations, testing plugins and payment setup, and troubleshooting issues. I also supported the move to Shopify, including redirects and checks before launch.
