About the client

Bruc Bond
Financial Services · Business Banking & Payments

Bruc Bond provides global banking and international payment solutions for businesses: corporate accounts, cross-border payments and worldwide corporate banking.

It also offers a software-as-a-service platform built on the same capabilities, so its marketing has to reach two kinds of buyer.

The challenge

What had to change

  • 01Two priority markets, Singapore and the United Kingdom, each with its own search behaviour.
  • 02A financial-services offer, where the people searching must be businesses, not consumers.
  • 03Two products, banking services and a SaaS platform, competing for the same budget.
What we delivered

The solution

Campaigns by market

Solution

Separate campaigns for Singapore and the United Kingdom, so budgets, bids and messages follow each market rather than averaging across them.

Business intent, not consumer traffic

Solution

Keywords and negatives built around what businesses search when they need corporate banking or international payments, keeping consumer queries out.

Banking and SaaS kept apart

Solution

The banking services and the SaaS platform run as distinct campaigns with their own messages, so each product's performance can be read on its own.

How the account was organised: each market and each product with its own campaign, so spend follows demand and every result can be read on its own.

Lessons

What other teams can take from this

One market, one campaign

Averaging two markets in one campaign hides what each needs. Splitting them is the cheapest clarity in paid search.

In financial services, the negatives matter most

The difference between a business and a consumer search is often one word. Negative keywords protect the budget.

Separate products, separate truths

When a company sells a service and a platform, mixing them in one campaign makes both harder to judge.
