Client's Needs and Business Objective

This food packaging manufacturer client had been trying to increase overall yearly revenue in order to outrun the turndown they faced from naturally losing customers after completing long-term jobs for them. They wanted to leverage our marketing services in order to fill the top of their funnel, hoping to cover the natural fallout with new sales. Before engaging with us, they were only acquiring a few new food packaging clients per year.

The Tactics: Increased Traffic and Engagement Through Paid Search and New Website

First, we built a new conversion-focused website for this client in order to make it easier to inquire about their services while better differentiating them from their competitors. We then leveraged paid search to quickly drive more traffic to their new website since they had low visibility in the search engine. This allowed them to occupy top search result spots by bidding on competitive keywords that they didn’t yet rank for.

The Outcome:

After launching the paid search campaign in March, it quickly ramped up and our client began seeing new leads, especially for their custom thin film packaging and food/retail packaging services. Throughout 2020, the leads remained steady and ended up accounting for nearly 60% of all of their website leads – A very encouraging result!
