Big Wins for Foghorn’s Outdoor Brand Partners
Topping Organic Search Results with White Hat SEO Landing Pages
Well known for their Australian Outback style, Conner Hats needed help creating awareness and driving traffic to the other hat categories sold on their website. Foghorn Labs developed a strategy to increase organic traffic from relevant non-brand searches by enriching existing collections pages with long-form, keyword-rich content. Starting in January 2018, we optimized 3 category pages per month, reaching a total of 50 by June 2019. The results were outstanding across the board. From January 2018 to December 2019, the number of keywords ranking in the top three positions increased by 910%, new users increased by 98%, transactions increased by 118%, and revenue increased by 113%.
Getting Discovered As A Direct-Only Brand
Despite having an industry-leading product line, loads of compelling content, and the support of a highly involved rider community, Mosko was struggling to gain traction outside of their core customer base. Their major competitors had the exposure as well as the financial stability that can come with large, established dealer relationships. Through a combination of content marketing optimization, SEO and targeted online ad campaigns, Foghorn Labs helped Mokso Moto increase overall transactions by 754%, eComm conversion rate by 493%, and revenue by 623%.
Stomping the Landing in Peak Season
No matter how successful the brand, or how innovative the product line, the seasonal nature of the snowsports industry is unavoidable. Mother nature is a fickle business partner who requires brands like TREW to maximize every opportunity during peak season to cushion slower sales during the warmer months. In Q3 2018, TREW enlisted the support of Foghorn Labs to amplify the brand message throughout Q4 and drive online sales with cross channel advertising. Through a combination of landing page optimization and the utilization of Facebook’s latest tools to create a full-funnel customer journey, our team was able to scale media spend significantly and go beyond the most optimistic stretch goals.
Climbing the Ladder in Q4
The stakes are high for online retailers in the months leading up to Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Sales goals tend to be ambitious while increased competition makes it challenging to win the attention of potential and loyal customers alike. Q4 brings with it increased traffic and sales, while the additional competition results in higher CPCs, volatile conversion rates and increased price sensitivity. Simms was no exception to these trends. Add new competitors, new products and a reduction in online marketing budgets to seasonal volatility and you’ve got a tough catch to reel in.
