Pilot Air, the compressed air experts, has specialised in designing, manufacturing and installing air compressor solutions for industrial, commercial, civil and enterprise clients nationwide for over 40 years. Now, with an optimised website and strategy, they prioritise delivering their premier products and services.

 

The Challenge

Pilot Air struggled with an outdated website and unclear marketing, failing to reflect its business identity and extensive capabilities. Seeking improvement, the company partnered with Brilliant Digital to overhaul its online presence and align it with its innovative products.

Our initial plan focused on restructuring the website to deliver quality, relevant information to distributors and their customers. Beyond SEO optimisation, we aimed to make it user-friendly, highlighting Pilot’s full range of services. We showcased their capacity for servicing and implementing large systems, elevating their online brand presence to accurately reflect their company identity.

“Brilliant Digital is positive and responsive, and it’s easy to work with them. I would recommend Brilliant Digital as a digital marketing agency to my peers in the B2B space because they truly understand the industry.” – Martin Wyllie, Pilot Air
