Objective

MBM feared that with the strict COVID19 lock downs that their business may suffer and draw to a halt. However they identified a golden opportunity. With B&Q closing its branches for the foreseeable future, and the lock-downs not extending to those that can not work from home, there was a big opportunity for a bold independent supplier to fill in the demand from builders and people needing materials for their at home projects.

Solution

As it became apparent that DIY home improvement was a major COVID19 trend, MSM brainstormed and decided to widen their business offering to service B2C customers for the first time. This meant that we needed to re-strategise our Google ads campaign, to ensure that MSM were findable to a much wider audience on Google than was ever desirable before. Budgets had to be spent wisely. We made sure that MSM were appearing dominantly in searches that we had previously discounted as they yield a lower average order value (AOV) than B2B orders do. We rapidly re-optimised the campaign to favour volume.

“I got in touch with Sharon from the KMG team back in November 2019 for my business and it’s the best decision I have made. From search engine optimisation to pay per click they are the best in the game. I was a bit hesitant at first because I did not understand how the online marketing process worked however my business has been generating record breaking revenue. A big thank you to Sharon for going above and beyond with her excellent customer service and being very supportive through out the whole campaign. If you’re looking to grow your business, get in touch with Sharon.”
