The Challenge

Metal Ceiling Express had low visibility due to non-existent organic rank.

Although they spent significant amounts of money on paid ads on Google and Bing, they were seriously lagging behind their competitors.

Furthermore, they did not use any other online marketing channels which further contributed to the low online visibility.

They were looking for ways to increase sales using digital marketing.

  • Did not rank in the top 50 for most keywords on Google/Bing

  • Low volume of visitor traffic caused low sales

  • Minimal social presence (only a basic Facebook page)

  • Thin content did not satisfy search engine algorightms

  • Heavy reliance on Google AdWords to generate sales.

  • Inordinately high PPC spend due to high reliance on AdWords

  • Return on ad spend (ROAS) was very low, hovering between 1.4x and 1.7x

  • Didn’t use additional marketing channels: social, email, content, or video

The Action Plan

We started by thoroughly optimizing the website for organic rank.

We followed this by implementing rigorous link-building campaigns for organic placement using a combination of manual and automated outreach.

We then activated various social accounts and started using email marketing to regularly keep in touch with opted-in users and customers.

  • Website optimized for search engine performance

  • Regular short and long-form content posted on the website

  • Printed coupons and offers enclosed in shipments as part of traditional marketing

  • Print ads and articles in industry magazines and publications

  • Social sharing of published material to their social profile(s)

  • Ongoing link building for high placement on search engines

  • Manual outreach for the best quality links

  • Content syndication via PR & other portals

  • Marketing automation to drip email offers to customers based on their purchases

  • Traffic & conversions tracked and monitored for review & optimization
