Client Overview
BriteBiz is a vertical SaaS platform built specifically for venues and event professionals. The software centralizes inquiries, bookings, proposals, contracts, accounting, and payments into one streamlined system.
Because BriteBiz serves a niche segment of the events industry, precision in demand generation is critical. Not every “event software” searcher is a qualified buyer, and attracting the wrong traffic creates friction for sales.
To improve demo quality and align paid acquisition with their ideal customer profile (ICP), BriteBiz partnered with Velocity to restructure and relaunch their Google Ads strategy.

The Challenge: Volume Without Qualification
Before partnering with Velocity, BriteBiz’s Google Ads campaigns were generating demo bookings, but many were misaligned with their target customer profile.
Common issues included:
- Users searching for unrelated event tools
- Businesses outside their venue-focused niche
- Low-intent or exploratory searches
- Spam demo submissions
- Build a paid search engine optimized for ICP-fit demo bookings, not just volume.
Strategy: Engineering for ICP Fit, Not Just Conversions
Rebuilt the account around intent tiers
We restructured campaigns to separate high-intent exact match keywords from broader exploratory traffic.
This allowed for budget control by search intent, clear performance visibility by keyword cluster, and better optimization toward qualified demo requests.
Aggressive search term filtering
Using systematic negative keyword expansion, we eliminated irrelevant queries that were previously triggering ads.
Feedback loop with sales
Performance wasn’t measured purely on demo counts.
Campaign adjustments were informed by: Sales feedback on demo quality, fit against BriteBiz’s target venue persona, and actual sales conversation outcomes.
Competitor & high-intent traffic capture
We implemented competitor-focused campaigns and tightly controlled venue-specific keyword targeting to intercept buyers actively evaluating solutions. This shifted demo composition from “curious” users to solution-aware prospects.
Results: From Noisy Volume to Qualified Pipeline
Within three months of relaunching the account:
- Monthly demo bookings increased 3x
- BriteBiz achieved its highest number of inbound demos per month
- Spam demo submissions were eliminated
- Sales reported significantly stronger alignment with their target venue persona
Instead of optimizing for “cost per conversion,” the account was rebuilt to optimize for ICP alignment and sustainable pipeline quality.
Google Ads transitioned from a noisy acquisition experiment into a controlled, high-intent demo channel. With a scalable paid acquisition structure designed for long-term SaaS growth.
