Nova Clothing, established in 2006, focuses on luxury fashion, offering items from top global brands. Starting on eBay and Amazon, they’ve grown to sell on 35+ marketplaces worldwide under "designermen" and recently opened their first store in Dundee city center.
Known for significant discounts below RRP, Nova sources products directly from Europe, ensuring authenticity and quality. They deliver exceptional service and luxury for less.
We started by aligning on the key business metrics:
Our Nova strategy involved a dual-platform approach, focusing on Meta’s ADV+ campaigns (CBO) for scale, while keeping Google Ads at super efficient margin. Through continuous creative testing, we identified high-performing ones and iterated on winning strategies.
For Nova, planned "marketing moments" such as further seasonal promotions were key to driving consistent revenue outside of traditional Q4 peaks. By leveraging unified campaigns across channels, Nova stabilised cash flow, increased customer retention, and improved advertising efficiency, resulting in year-round growth.
With robust funnel analysis, we ensured every touchpoint contributed to the remarkable 612% growth in orders and 413% sales increase.
We focused on acquiring new customers while lifecycle marketing captured repeat purchases, driving long-term growth. Testing a high volume of creative ensured sustainable scaling and consistent results.
When coming on board, there were several areas that needed to be addressed and rectified in order to take Nova Clothing to the next level in terms of growth and profitability.
In terms of their ad results, they had reached a point where they were seeing good results but were unable to take these to the next level and scale. By identifying the key areas that we needed to focus our attention on, we have been able to successfully scale over the last year.
With popular brands at the forefront of their success, Nova Clothing needed to ensure that their growth strategy included diversification and was able to drive sales of brands out with their bestsellers. In order to sustain and expand on the success of the best performers, we knew that we needed to incorporate this into our strategy.
Nova Clothing was only seeing results through a very limited number of creatives, making it difficult to create a growth strategy based on this. The lack of diverse creatives limits the ability to understand what works amongst different audiences and why.
This is something our creative strategy seeks to combat, and since testing and finding winners, we have been able to do just that.
Running too many campaigns can lead to overlap, and overlap often results in over-reporting. Over-reporting skews your data and leads to poor decision-making, particularly if you're still relying on a 7-day click and 1-day view attribution model. To maintain clarity, it's essential to streamline your campaigns and avoid unnecessary complexity.
By applying cost controls to your ad account, you can direct the algorithm to deliver the CPA you need. When testing new creatives, Meta uses its forecasting tools to predict expected CTR (eCTR) and conversion rate (eCVR) before entering the auction. If the system predicts that the creative won't hit the required CPA, it simply won't spend any budget. No spend means no wasted resources, which ultimately preserves margin—a crucial factor for any emerging brand. More margin = more growth potential.
Ensure your account is optimising for click-based outcomes only. Avoid relying on view-based conversions, as these sales aren't truly incremental and don't provide genuine value. Their only impact is inflating your ROAS, making it seem more impressive than it really is. This is precisely why your advertising platforms like Google and Meta might report higher sales figures than your backend system does. The key to an accurate understanding of your campaign's performance lies in focusing on outcomes driven by genuine engagement, not passive views.
Creative is the cornerstone of success. You must be continuously testing multiple ads weekly in your ad account. Think of it in simple terms: approximately 96% of your ads will either underperform or receive little to no spend. The quicker you can test 100 ads, the quicker you'll discover the 4 that deliver strong returns. Constant testing isn't a luxury—it's a necessity in today’s competitive landscape.
Stop trying to outsmart Meta’s algorithm, which processes more data daily than any other platform in the world. Meta has insights beyond what any human can access, and in most cases, it knows best. Sometimes this means putting your ego aside—forcing spend on underperforming ads, pushing for fake engagement, or overly retargeting can hurt your results more than help. Let the machine do what it’s designed to do, and you'll avoid creating unnecessary challenges for yourself.
