Case study

First Google Ads campaign for a pan-African ERP integrator

Cathena's first experience with advertising. The pan-African digital transformation firm ran Google Search campaigns built around high purchase-intent keywords (ERP, Odoo, Power BI, CRM), supported by new landing pages and full tracking through Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics. With $320 invested, the campaign produced 975 clicks and 20 qualified leads.

Cathena’s Google Ads campaign and its search adverts.

The challenge

Before Soro Nua stepped in, Cathena faced several limits:

  • No prior experience with Google Ads.
  • Unstructured client acquisition, resting on word of mouth.
  • Little visibility on the tools it implements (Odoo, Power BI, ERP).

With nothing running on the digital side, lead generation stalled and a gap opened between the quality of the services offered and how well known the company actually was in its markets.

Our approach

  1. Targeted advertising strategy
  • Google Search Ads campaigns only, built around high purchase-intent keywords: ERP, Odoo, Power BI, CRM.
  • Goal: attach the Cathena name to its flagship solutions and generate qualified leads.

What we delivered

  1. A structured method
  1. Audit of the objectives and identification of the strategic keywords.
  2. New landing pages built for conversion.
  3. Ad copy written with a clear value proposition.
  4. Tracking set up through Google Tag Manager, with monitoring in Google Analytics.
  5. Continuous optimisation to raise the CTR and bring down the CPC.
  1. Tools used
  • Google Ads
  • Google Analytics
  • Google Tag Manager

The results

The results went beyond what was expected:

  • High client satisfaction with the performance and with the clarity of the reporting.
  • A new awareness of digital as a strategic lever.
  • More confidence in paid media investment.

This first advertising campaign took Cathena from no digital acquisition at all to a structured, measurable and profitable system. Within a few months digital had become a key lever for growth and expansion, confirming the effectiveness of the advertising strategy Soro Nua designed: data-driven, agile and focused on impact.
