Overview

Upstart, a pioneering online lending platform, has long been a beacon of innovation in the fintech sector. Recognizing the potential of optimizing their digital strategies even further, they partnered with our team to refine their paid search initiatives and enhance their website user experience.

Goal

Upstart aimed to achieve two primary goals: a reduction in Cost Per Acquisition (CPA) for their paid search campaigns and a substantial boost in lead generation conversions on their website.

Challenge

With an already established online presence, any improvements required a meticulous analysis of the finer details. The challenges included optimizing paid search campaigns to reduce CPA without compromising reach and enhancing website design to improve conversions without disrupting the existing user journey.

Action & Strategy

Our team dived deep into Upstart’s existing paid search strategies. We refined keyword targeting, improved ad creatives, and adjusted bidding strategies to ensure better quality leads at a lower cost.

Using advanced analytics and user behavior tracking, we identified opportunities above the fold to enhance clarity and trustworthiness. We incorporated strategically placed trust badges, clear CTAs, and used psychological tactics, such as social proof and urgency, to encourage users to take action.
