Boom Golf: Scaling Your Golf eCommerce Brand with Google Ads

At Boom Golf, we specialize in helping golf eCommerce brands scale effectively through cutting-edge marketing strategies. One of the most valuable lessons we’ve learned from running hundreds of Google Ads campaigns for golf businesses is the importance of understanding branded vs. non-branded traffic segmentation.

If you’re running a golf eCommerce store, this distinction can make or break your campaign results.

Branded vs. Non-Branded Traffic for Golf eCommerce

Let’s break it down:

• Branded Campaigns target customers who already know your golf brand and are searching for it specifically. For example, someone Googling "Gutta Percha Golf Supplements" or "XYZ Golf Clubs." These are warm leads—they’ve likely heard about your brand or products before.

• Non-Branded Campaigns target golfers searching for the products you sell, but not necessarily your brand. Think queries like "best golf training aids," "high-performance golf balls," or "indoor golf simulators." These are potential new customers.

If you want to scale your golf eCommerce business, you need both types of campaigns.

• Branded Campaigns: These campaigns are essential for converting your warm traffic and ensuring competitors don’t steal clicks from people looking for your brand.

• Non-Branded Campaigns: These campaigns are where you grow. They’re tougher to optimize, but they bring in new golfers who haven’t discovered your brand yet.

The Mistake Many Golf Brands Make

Here’s a common pitfall we see all the time in the golf eCommerce space: Agencies that rely too heavily on branded traffic.

Why does this happen?
Because branded campaigns are low-hanging fruit. They’re easy to set up, deliver high ROAS, and look great in reports. But here’s the truth:

If you only focus on branded traffic, you’re leaving a massive audience of golfers untapped.

Think about it—how many people are actively searching for "your brand name" compared to people searching for "best golf clubs," "golf accessories for beginners," or "top-rated launch monitors"? The latter group represents your growth potential, and without a solid non-branded strategy, you’re missing out.

How Boom Golf Does Things Differently for Golf eCommerce Brands

At Boom Golf, we’ve built our approach around one core principle: integrity in growth. We know the unique challenges of running a golf eCommerce business, from managing seasonal sales spikes to competing against industry giants. That’s why we design campaigns tailored specifically to the needs of golf brands.

Here’s what sets us apart:

1. Balanced Campaign Strategies:
   We don’t just rely on branded traffic to boost short-term metrics. We put in the hard work to create high-performing non-branded campaigns that bring in new golfers. This means targeting keywords like:

   • "Best golf training aids under $50"

   • "High-performance golf balls for beginners"

   • "Indoor golf simulators for winter practice"

2. Transparency You Can Trust:

   • We’re upfront about the challenges and opportunities in the golf market.

   • No hiding behind big ROAS numbers from branded campaigns while ignoring the real growth potential.

3. Golf-Specific Expertise:

   • We know what golfers are searching for and how to position your products in front of them.

   • Whether you sell premium putters, golf tees, or hydration supplements, we create campaigns that speak to your target audience.

4. Complete Accountability:

   • If a strategy doesn’t work, we own it. We refine, test, and optimize until it does.

Why Non-Branded Traffic is Critical for Golf eCommerce

Think of it this way: Branded campaigns are like your loyal golfing buddies—they’re great, but they’re not expanding your circle. Non-branded campaigns are like playing at a new golf course—you’re opening yourself up to meet new players (customers).

Yes, non-branded traffic is harder to acquire. But when you crack the code, it’s a game-changer for your golf eCommerce store. It’s how you dominate search results for terms like:

• "Top-rated golf club sets for beginners"

• "Golf ball deals online"

• "Best launch monitors for under $500"
