Pierce AB joined DataFeedWatch to take control of the most valuable asset of their product advertising campaigns: Their DATA FEEDS.
Today, Antoine Coopoosamy, Head of Performance Marketing at Pierce AB, shares their feed management challenges and goals.
With a local presence in 16 European markets and 40+ websites, Pierce AB has very quickly become one of the most successful Swedish e-commerce companies of all time selling motocross, snow scooter and motorcycle parts, and gear and equipment to petrol heads.
Pierce AB is constantly looking for new and innovative ways to drive online sales and deliver a greater return on advertising spend.
Product feed management was handled by our IT department on a “home-made” ERP and back-end solution.
The problem with how we previously managed our feeds was that the IT resources were scarce. Their backlog had grown exponentially with launching new sites and new features to better serve our customers.
The main goals we had from implementing a feed tool were:
Increase product offering. Thanks to the basic optimization of product title, missing color, missing attribute we could launch 40% more products on Google Shopping in markets like France, Germany and United Kingdom.
Get higher rankings. Following this, we could exclude entire categories or product groups from eBay and other marketplaces where the product differs a lot from the picture. This helped to manage client expectations and get higher ratings.
Better Performance. Finally, DataFeedWatch allowed us to manage our products based on stock information, clicks, and cost, which dramatically improved the performance on some channels.

We have 3 different shipping methods:
Before DataFeedWatch, optimizing our shipping was a bit of a hassle. Now, we have created the perfect stock rule to only keep the products we’re sure to send to the relevant channels.
Take FULL control over the feeds.
By doing so, we were able to launch many more products, across dozens of channels, and with no restrictions from IT.
A great tip is to get the IT department to create a “Master Feed”, which contains all the elements you need and any kind of product level information, such as Google or eBay Categories, Manufacturer, Supplier, margin etc.
Once these details are in your master feed, you can create rules to be more efficient in pushing the most profitable items.
