The Problem
The client’s previous strategy had been predicated on constant discounting and selling clothes at an inflated price.
Their previous marketing efforts had been based on Facebook marketing and, unfortunately, they were badly advised into buying ‘likes’ – this led to a huge audience who were un-engaged.
The Solution; Back to Square One
We encouraged the client to set an RRP. They had two distribution channels – wholesale – through shops (including shops that sold on-line) and direct to consumer. Parity in pricing would deliver consistency for consumers and distributors.
SEO: The client had never optimised their on or off-site content for search engines. We spent a considerable amount of time optimising the content on-site to ensure maximum visibility. In parallel a significant amount of time was spent creating high quality content to drive qualified traffic to the site.
AdWords: Optimised Google Shopping feeds, ‘per-product’ Ads to ensure Page 1 domination across SERP’s.
Strategy: Consumer profiling, user journey mapping and Multi Funnel Channel analysis to ensure owned, earned and paid channels were performing optimally regardless of seasonality.
Email Marketing: Harnessing the power of previous product purchases and bespoke offers to hugely increase revenue through this key revenue-generating channel.
