THE CHALLENGE
Upon acquiring Swimming Pool Kits Direct, the new owners quickly recognised many challenges hindering their growth and customer experience. The traditional pool purchasing process was fragmented and cumbersome, leaving customers frustrated and in the dark.
Their antiquated CRM system provided no insights into marketing effectiveness or sales drivers, and outdated branding and messaging failed to resonate with potential buyers.
Additionally, their website suffered from poor design and slow performance, with no thought to user experience. Thus, it was crucial to implement a comprehensive digital strategy that included a robust CRM to manage their entire front-end operations and improve lead generation through educational and stress-free buyer journeys.
THE WAY FORWARD
To address the challenges faced by Swimming Pool Kits Direct, we undertook a comprehensive overhaul of their branding, developing a new logo, colour scheme, and messaging that truly reflected their value proposition.
We designed a highly informative, user-focused website that not only enhances the pool buying experience but also converts visitors into leads through interactive calculators and tools, all seamlessly integrated with HubSpot's content hub and HubDB.
Moreover, we configured HubSpot to streamline their sales, marketing, and service processes, implementing automation to save time and enhance efficiency.
To drive lead generation, we launched targeted advertising campaigns on Google Ads and Instagram, complemented by ongoing SEO efforts. Our continuous conversion rate optimisation program ensures the website remains effective and responsive to user needs, sustaining the momentum of their digital transformation.
