01 · Challenge

Scaling spend without scaling waste.

OutdoorPlay had a clear ambition: scale online store performance without inflating customer acquisition costs. The brand had momentum. The paid programme needed sharper aim.

ROI across paid media was inconsistent, organic visibility on buyer-intent terms was underweight, and acquisition costs were climbing — exactly the conditions that cap an eCommerce P&L.

02 · Approach

Restructure the spend, build the organic base, sharpen the site.

We rebuilt the Google Ads account around high-converting products and smarter audience segmentation, then ran an SEO programme in parallel to lower the cost of every future customer.

Underneath both, technical and content work tightened the site itself — turning the lifted traffic into orders, not just visits.

The growth playbook
4 workstreams

Google Ads rebuild

Restructured the entire ad account around high-converting products, optimised bidding strategies and used smart audience segmentation to drive conversions at scale — delivering an 875% return.

Strategic SEO

Targeted on-page and off-page work lifted visibility on high-volume, buyer-intent terms, giving the brand a compounding, lower-cost channel alongside paid.

Performance-driven CRO

Paid, organic and conversion-rate work were tuned as one programme so every lift in traffic translated into a measurable revenue gain — not just a click.

Technical + content tightening

Site speed, mobile experience and content refinement reduced bounce rates and gave the funnel the polish it needed to convert at the new traffic levels.

03 · The result

8.75X return, 66% revenue lift, lower CPA.

Inside the engagement, paid campaigns returned 875% — every dollar in coming back as more than eight — and online revenue lifted 66% on the back of cohesive digital strategy.

Cost per acquisition dropped 32% as targeting and messaging sharpened, while website traffic grew 73% quarter on quarter from the organic and paid push working in tandem.
