8GB Dropbox Space Free PPC Campaign
The Problem: As a freelancer, I am constantly involved with multiple projects that require a shared Dropbox folder. Dropbox only offers 2GB of free space but each user can earn up to 8GB of free space allowing for a total of 10GB free. As my original 2GB allotment filled up, I wanted to find a free solution to maximize my free Dropbox space.
The Solution: A close friend and fellow freelancer, Jeremy Belcher, founder of The Anywhere Company, put our heads together to find a solution. We created an Adwords text ad to display on Google when the term “Dropbox” was searched using $75 free Adwords credit. We ran the campaign 3 times at different maximum Cost per Click bids, successfully maxing 3 Dropbox accounts with 10GB of free Dropbox space. In the end, we were able to maximize a free Dropbox account in about 6 hours, with a max CPC of $.10 and a total cost of approximately $36.
