NCI did not have an SEO strategy or staff, but it also had 150 subdomains run by different departments and on different CMS systems. Additionally, Google had recently rolled out its symptom panels. As a result, even its expert written content was not ranking for its ideal terms, and its cancer clinical trials section of its site was not ranking for the vast majority of cancer clinical trial keywords.

Goodfair is an online recycled clothing retailer focused on reversing the negative effects of consumerism. Unlike ThredUp or a normal thrift store, customers purchase "product categories or bundles" and are sent an eclectic mix of items adding a mystery element to the experience.

Challenges:

• Often sold out of in-demand product categories, making it hard to scale top-performing ads
• Didn't have a consistent stream of new content
• Always had an abundance of low-converting product categories that they wanted to push

Strategies:

• Immediately created evergreen ad content that converted well and was scalable since it wasn't tied to a specific product
• Worked with the client on an influencer outreach plan to build up their asset library—used this content to create eye-catching videos that focused on the styling of the products, while also highlighting Goodfair's mission
• Pitched the client on product-specific influencer outreach initiatives to get more creative (and hopefully higher converting) content featuring the products that were a tougher sell

Client was managing their own ads and wanted to expand channels and capabilities within existing channels.
