This client is a manufacturer who sell via resellers and to trade customers, but decided to open up an E-commerce website in 2013 to allow them to sell direct to the general public. The new website provided a useful source of additional leads as well as sales with better margins and better cash flow, but did not take off so after a frustrating experience with a previous marketing agency, they decided to start working with JDR in 2017. 

This case study is from a client who came to one of our events two years ago. Based on the information they received at that event, they decided to engage us firstly to develop their website, and then to run an inbound marketing programme. This is a small company with (at first) no salespeople, and no marketing team - and run by a business owner in their mid-60's and looking to develop the business for a future generation.

The nature of the business is that just one new customer can create a lot of revenue - for example, a recent order from a website enquiry generated a £90,000 project.  Once they have designed and installed a system for a client, they also offer ongoing maintenance and support, providing a regular revenue stream in the future.

This client, a successful crane servicing and repair business, approached JDR because they already had their hands full and couldn’t take on any marketing activities even if they wanted to! The owner of the business was considering bringing in extra help so that the company could expand and grow but instead decided to take some of the weight off their shoulders and entrust their digital marketing to JDR.

This decision has led to organic traffic being tripled (see above), and an overall growth in business of 30% (a turnover increase of £300k).

This client, an international book distributer, initially approached JDR for a website redesign which led to hosting their website with us. They originally planned to hire their own employee to handle all of their marketing in-house but made the decision to outsource to the JDR team instead. Here’s how we helped this business.

This B2C home improvement company were no strangers to digital marketing but had become disillusioned after their experiences with a PPC agency who failed to deliver. This client had built themselves a website in-house, and employed a team member to maintain it but decided to give outsourcing their marketing one last chance, with spectacular results...

This client approached us with a casual interest in digital marketing. With a new budget excess, the client decided to shift focus and see what a new image could do for them. As a specialist in thermal engineering this business designs, manufactures, installs and supports heat treatment products.

This case study is from a local, family-run building design company who approached us looking for a marketing company to help them to generate their own leads and enquiries. Their main source of new customers, apart from word of mouth, was paying for leads from an online portal. This was a) expensive and b) the leads were often price shoppers who were getting several quotes. The goal was to build a pipeline of regular inbound website enquiries, but being a small business run from home, the decision to invest in an all-in-one marketing programme was a big one. Here is how they got on...

Often, before starting work with a business, we'll do a full audit of their current situation, including website traffic, Google rankings, social media presence, domain authority, and so on. After working with this client for 12 months, we decided we'd look back at this original audit and evaluate the progress since November 2016. 

This case study is from the professional services sector - a small, specialist firm of consultants. The background of the business was a group of partners that had performed a management buyout a few years ago - and while they are subject matter experts, they are not experts in sales and marketing and had no method (other than word of mouth) of winning new accounts.

In 2016 we met with a specialist welding company (machinery, tooling & welding services). They had been using SEO as their only real marketing channel (other than word of mouth), and were not convinced it was generating much in the way of new enquiries, despite being high in Google already for a number of important search phrases.
