The Challenge

1

Timber Kings required a flexible eCommerce solution on the Shopify platform. They needed a site that could initially be launched in catalogue mode, allowing users to view and enquire about products without the option to purchase online. Additionally, the site needed the capability to transition into a fully operational online store when ready. The design had to be sleek, modern, and visually engaging, reflecting the premium nature of their products.

Along with a new website, the business aimed to increase their brand awareness and sales through digital marketing. They had seen some success with organic social media but wanted to explore new strategies for reaching their audience using both paid and organic methods!

Design and Development

We opted for Shopify, a powerful and user-friendly eCommerce platform, as the foundation for their online store. We customised an existing Shopify theme extensively to align with Timber Kings’ brand identity and specific needs, making significant adjustments to layout, colour scheme, and functionality. The result is a unique and appealing website tailored to enhance their online presence.

  • Visually appealing product category pages
  • Customer review sections
  • Responsive and mobile-friendly design
  • Modern and practical website design
  • Fast mobile load times for seamless browsing

Search Engine Optimisation

When setting the site live, we conducted a comprehensive SEO site audit to ensure full optimisation for organic search results. We also tested critical functionalities, such as verifying contact forms were functioning correctly and ensuring fast page speeds. User and responsive testing was carried out to confirm the site looked good and worked smoothly across all devices.

We populated the entire site, adding every product they offer, writing up content, and uploading high-quality images. Once all products and pages were added, we updated the navigation menu and optimised the structure to ensure products were easy to find on the site.

We then created a long-term strategic SEO plan for the business to dominate organic search results.

  • Implemented best practices for on-page, off-page, and technical SEO
  • Conducted in-depth keyword research across all business areas
  • Developed a strategic content plan to boost visibility and generate leads
  • Established a long-term strategy with a 6–12-month plan aimed at achieving top organic rankings for targeted keywords

Social Media Marketing/Social Ads

We have developed a well-rounded digital marketing strategy that includes SEO Campaigns, Digital PR, and Paid Ads. Additionally, we are preparing to launch organic social media marketing in the coming months to enhance their online presence and increase customer engagement.

Paid Google Ads

To enhance the website’s visibility among target audiences, we developed and launched PPC Google Ads campaigns. Our strategy focused on maximising ROI for the business by utilising conversion tracking to refine and optimise ad performance.

We established a recommended daily budget and bid on keywords most likely to drive engaged traffic to the site. We also optimised the main product page to be highly effective for lead generation, ensuring that users arriving via paid ads could easily convert.

  • Implemented lead conversion tracking & call tracking
  • Targeted ads to specific locations where potential customers are active
  • Designed landing pages optimised for conversions
  • Strategically implemented high value keywords

The result is a visually stunning and highly functional eCommerce site that reflects Timber Kings’ brand identity. Its sleek design and practical features have set the stage for a seamless transition to a fully operational online store. Timber Kings now has a powerful online presence, ready to cater to their customer’s needs.

Achieving top rankings for a series of brand-related search terms within the first month on Google, coupled with gaining highly authoritative backlinks, has significantly boosted trust signals for the site. Through targeted PPC ad campaigns, we’re already seeing a 5x return on ad spend (ROAS). The immediate uptick in foot traffic, lead inquiries, and phone calls has directly translated into a notable revenue increase for the business.x
