The idea of BrightBid came about when close friends, Gustav Westman and Marcus Möller saw the need to help businesses deliver optimised campaigns with Google Search Ads and compete in an increasingly crowded environment.With the appointment of CTO Edmund Aldrich de Leon in 2021, they developed an AI engine that works alongside Google’s automation and first-party data to find the best performing keywords, enhance bidding adjustments and generate more revenue, leads and customers. Combined with the marketing and sales expertise, BrightBid’s AI- and human-led offering helps companies deliver an average 20% increase in conversions.

“The AI engine works for all types of Paid Search advertisers but B2B marketers are seeing very high performance lifts as the Google CPC’s for this advertiser group have been especially challenged with the pandemic as competition has intensified,” said Marcus Möller, Co-Founder and Head of Customer Success. “The migration to o*************** has grown rapidly in the last 2 years which in turn is driving Google cost inflation in key verticals – we’re confident that our offering can help companies take their online presence to the next level without scaling costs,” concluded Möller.
