Rebuilding the Foundation for Scalable Growth
Kradle is a fast-growing pet wellness brand helping dogs live calmer, more comfortable lives through CBD-based products.
As the brand ramped up digital investment, paid media became a critical growth lever. Early campaigns generated spend, but performance was difficult to trust. Attribution was incomplete, cost-per-acquisition was too high, and strict CBD advertising policies limited optimization. The team needed clearer insight into what was driving results – and what wasn’t.
The challenge was to reset the foundation: establish reliable attribution, enable compliant targeting, and transform paid media into a dependable growth channel.


Goals & Objectives
- Establish clear attribution across paid channels
- Reduce CPA without sacrificing sales momentum
- Identify scalable, CBD-compliant audience and creative strategies
- Improve on-site conversion and repeat purchase
Campaign Plan
We started by fixing the foundation first – ensuring every dollar spent could be measured, analyzed, and optimized.
Attribution & Measurement Reset
- Implemented a consistent UTM tracking framework across all campaigns
- Validated pixels and tags to support remarketing and conversion tracking
- Configured Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager around core KPIs
- Created a real-time performance dashboard and weekly insights reporting
Paid Media & Audience Strategy
- Launched and scaled campaigns on The Trade Desk, Google, and Meta within CBD advertising guidelines
- Built high-intent audiences using site visitors, lookalikes, and CBD-friendly segments
- Tested creative and messaging to identify top-performing combinations
Conversion & Retention Optimization
- Introduced programmatic display to expand reach and support remarketing
- Built a robust remarketing audience that drove the majority of display conversions
- Refined product pages to reduce friction and improve conversion rate
- Launched email journeys to support repeat purchase and retention


Results
With a clear measurement foundation and disciplined media execution in place, Kradle saw meaningful gains in efficiency and performance.
- 90% reduction in CPA within the first three months
- 14% month-over-month sales growth driven by more efficient media spend
- 4x increase in on-site conversion rate, from 0.49% to over 2.0% at peak performance
- Millions of programmatic impressions delivered, exceeding CTR and CPC benchmarks
- Remarketing became a primary driver of display conversions
Key Takeaway
Efficient growth doesn’t come from spending more – it comes from knowing what works. By rebuilding attribution and pairing it with compliant targeting and conversion optimization, Kradle turned paid media into a reliable, scalable growth channel.
