Pushing year on year growth

Most seasonal businesses feel like they’re at the mercy of the calendar. You have a small window to make your money, and once that window closes (usually because of weather or stock), that’s it for the year. We started working with a client in late 2023 who had this exact problem. They had a great product, but their revenue was tied to a very specific time of year. Our goal wasn’t just to sell more during the rush, but to see if we could actually make the season longer.

01 – The challenge

Overcoming the revenue limitations of a compressed selling window

This business faces a massive spike in demand followed by a forced pause. Every dollar spent on marketing during that peak has to work incredibly hard.

To expand, we had to make the peak season as efficient as possible while finding customers before and after the traditional rush to smooth out the income.

02 – Our approach

Blending high-intent search with proactive audience seeding

Instead of just turning ads on when orders started coming in, we deployed a dual-channel strategy engineered to stretch the seasonal boundaries.

High-Intent Capture

We leveraged Google Search and Performance Max (P-MAX) to ensure that whenever someone was actively looking to buy, our client was the first result they saw.

Proactive Season Stretching

We used Meta ads to get in front of people before they even realised they needed the product, generating a pipeline of orders before the traditional peak arrived.

Agile Budget Scaling

In January and February, as soon as we saw the market move as summer ended, we ramped up the budget immediately to grab the volume while it was there.

“You’ll notice the “True ROI” dropped slightly from 20.7x to 19.1x. If you were just looking at a spreadsheet, that might look like a dip. But in the real world, it was a huge win. By spending 29% more, we were able to bring in more volume. Although the true ROI was lower the second year, the total revenue generated was an extra $101,850, making the extra investment well worth the return.”

04 – The overview

Accepting the scale trade-off to capture greater market share

If you have a business that’s working well, aggressive scaling pays off. We didn’t just boost sales; we helped this client capture a larger slice of the market by being faster and more strategic than their competitors.

Best of all, we don’t believe in charging a percentage of your spend or your profit. Our fees are fixed, so when you have a massive year like this one, you keep the rewards, not us.
