eMerchant Authority was a start up which was looking to generate leads in a hyper competitive industry Merchant Processing.

Celebrante is an Australian celebrant directory which makes money from celebrants when users make an enquiry with them through the Celebrante website.

The business model is simple, generate enquiries through the website at less than it costs in marketing to generate the enquiry.

The previous owner was forced to sell the website after rising Google AdWords costs had made the website no longer profitable.

Lance Tapsell, a long-time celebrant and customer of the site decided to purchase it and try to get it profitable again.

By engaging Pathfinder, the business was able to dramatically reduce its cost per lead and ensure profitability for the business and its future.

This client came to me as a newer shop only starting in January of 2021. They had not run any paid media at the point of working together and they were already having good success in their first 6-months doing around 50-100K/month in top line revenue. They came to me looking to clear more of their inventory and start testing the waters on paid media to see what kind of return they could achieve.

Their business model did launches every two weeks of different products, so we were constantly running different campaigns to see which clothing sold well through paid media.

The main challenges with working on this account were doing a complete overhaul of their creative direction and building a content structure that would help promote their application accurately. Understanding the product in-depth, and the best way that we could bring it to the eyes of their customer base and relevant users was also tricky. Finding original topics to help us build their social media and promoted content is something we have to deal with on a monthly basis as well. To keep things interesting for the users and for their unique community, we ensure a healthy content rotation and hyper relevant ideas.
