1. MARTIN & ROBERT’S STORY: SUCCESS FOR GENERATIONS
Martin, together with his father Robert, runs an antique shop. Robert opened the shop 30 years ago and was always satisfied with the work: "I never had too many clients, I relied more on old loyal clients, but the business was going well. However, traffic has dropped a lot lately, so I asked my son Martin to do something about it." Martin concluded that their clientele is specific and not that frequent, so he decided to try digital advertising on various specialized sites. "I knew that our customers are not easy to find, the things we sell in the store are not popular among the masses, so we had to think carefully about how to reach potential customers. There are various blogs and sites that deal with the analysis of antiques, and it was there that we placed digital ads that resulted in new customers."
In addition to advertising on specialized sites, they also worked on optimizing the entry on the Google map and brought it to the top 3 places. From there, the increased visibility of the listing allowed for increased web traffic and greater overall visibility for their business when users searched for their store. “We also touched on search marketing (SEO) and managed to get 9 keywords on the first page of Google, including some competing terms related to antiques!” Martin tells us. With digital advertising campaigns on the Internet, they managed to expand the customer base, and by introducing the possibility of delivery of their goods, the turnover increased by 70%. "We reached a lot of new customers who are not near our city, so we introduced delivery and it was the best decision for our business! Thanks to digital advertising, we were able to connect with many art dealers from abroad, and thanks to a new collaboration, we import antiques that we could only dream of!"
2. MIA & DAVID’S STORY: PRODUCTS FROM FARM TO TABLE
Mia and David inherited their parents' family farm, which grew fruit and vegetables. They wanted to introduce something new and that's how their Detox juice company was born. On Saturdays, their parents would sell their fruits and vegetables at the market, and at the persuasion of the children, they also included their detox juices. However, juice sales did not do as well as fruit and vegetable sales. They wanted to open their store in a well-known shopping centre, thinking that it would be easier to reach their target group there, but such an investment was too expensive. They decided to sell their products through a web shop. One of the things that customers especially liked was the ability to filter the offer by ingredients.
"My favourite fruit is strawberries, so for me it is a mandatory filter when searching for products. The web shop shows me all the juices that contain strawberries as one of the ingredients," says Mia, while her brother David makes sure to exclude celery: "I'm allergic to celery, that's why we introduced the filter option so that customers can immediately cross products with the ingredient they're allergic to." The included filter shortens the time of searching for the desired juices, and another of the cool things they introduced is the scoring system, i.e. rewarding their loyal customers. For every euro spent, customers receive 10 points that they can later use for discounts or free products. Thanks to the successful web shop, Mia and David today have many loyal customers who are not only locals but also from the wider area, which they would not reach if customers could not buy their products online. They also have refrigerators for their products in 7 different fitness centres. "We made contacts thanks to the web shop, the owner of the Workout fitness centre was our regular customer and suggested cooperation," Mia told us.
In a similar way, cooperation with the largest chain of organic food in the city was also established. "As a store with a similar food philosophy, they wanted to introduce detox juices with their offer. They came to us by Googling and that's where the collaboration started," said David.
