Objectives

Shirohana was already regarded as an industry leader in Sri Lanka, but it aimed to strengthen its position by expanding its online presence and increasing sales sustainably in the face of fierce competition. Our key aims were to:

  • Increase website traffic and user base.
  • Improve website conversion rates.
  • Increase customer retention and lifetime value.
  • Conduct essential A/B tests to optimise strategies.  
  • Make meaningful connections with customers in order to understand and address their problems effectively.

Challenges

  • Almost all competitors had an established online presence.
  • The client required a more effective digital marketing strategy.
  • The need for extensive experimentation required timely execution.

Our Approach in a Nutshell

1. We began by reviewing the basics, understanding Shirohana’s core value propositions as a business, and exploring core customer behaviour and purchasing patterns through collaborative exercises with the client. 

2. We established a clear and measurable North Star metric from the start and worked in close collaboration with the client to achieve it.

3. We ran A/B tests on social media, search engine marketing and website optimisation to gain insights about our target audience's response to different copies, designs, and user experiences. Additionally, we found direct customer feedback to be crucial in shaping our experiments.

4. We ensured cross-functional expertise within the growth team by including experts from every core area needed to break down traditional marketing silos. This resulted in a significant acceleration of the growth process. 

Results

Our data-driven approach enabled us to identify and address
growth opportunities and roadblocks early on.
These small victories added up over time, resulting in a staggering 6X
revenue growth sustained over a two-year period. Conversion rates increased
by nearly 50%, while Return on Advertising Spend surged by 10X.
