MARKETING STRATEGY ECOMMERCE WEBSITE CONTENT AND SEO GOOGLE ADS EMAIL NEWSLETTERS

Edcon Steel began as a metalworking shop in Sydney’s Northern Beaches over 50 years ago, predominantly serving local customers. Today, it is Australia’s most comprehensive online steel and metal superstore, offering quality steel solutions for projects of every size.

 

 

The Challenge

When Edcon came to Brilliant Digital, they had a website that looked like a magazine but lacked substance. They were also spending significantly on SEM without seeing an adequate return on investment. What they needed was more than a website. It was a complete strategy.

Due to Edcon’s extensive product range, this project required a highly customised plan. We focused on enhancing Google rankings for improved product visibility. With complex functionality and transactional needs, the website aimed to educate an unfamiliar online shopping market. Our ongoing content updates ensure user engagement, making the website a dynamic tool, essentially serving as an additional storefront for the business.

With a complete B2B Digital Marketing Strategy, Edcon experienced impressive results. Brilliant Digital delivered a fit-for-purpose solution, leveraging our technical expertise and understanding of B2B e-commerce complexities. Our data-driven strategy prioritised ROI, ensuring the best possible outcomes for Edcon.

“When we came to Brilliant Digital, the selling point for us was the strategy. It wasn’t just about building a website; it was about having a philosophy. Sitting above that philosophy was the strategy that went into how we were going to make our website relevant and how we were going to keep it interesting to the customers. That was exciting for us with Brilliant Digital – because we weren’t doing that before, and now we are.” – Hugh Edmunds, Edcon Steel

When we came to Brilliant Digital, the selling point for us was the strategy. It wasn’t just about building a website, it was about having a philosophy. The results confirm this was the right approach.

Hugh Edmunds

I would recommend Brilliant Digital as a digital marketing agency to my peers because they truly understand how to use data to get results in the product marketing space.

Martin Wyllie

As a result of the brand and SEO strategy, enquiries are in and around our core competencies and drive the sort of work that we want.

Alan Lipman

For me, it is vital to understand where we are getting a return on investment. We have a great partnership with Brilliant Digital – they explain the numbers so we understand what’s working and what’s not. We can then decide where we need to invest our time and money.

Craig Hannam

The leads that come from the website are warmed up and ready to do business. This massively reduces the time we spend pitching to new prospects.
