The Project Background
LIFECORE is a flooring brand with a focus on healthy hardwoods. What that means is the company engineers hardwoods with no added formaldehyde and low VOCs, helping customers install environmentally friendly flooring without sacrificing beauty or style.
As a new product without any market history or brand recognition, LIFECORE came to Captivate to help bring its healthy hardwood floors into the digital stratosphere. They not only needed web design, but a holistic digital marketing program. Our team designed and developed digital solutions to launch their new products, all rooted in our Search First® methodology.
The Project Challenge
LIFECORE’s lacking any sort of digital footprint presented a specific set of challenges. But our team viewed these as opportunities — a chance to start fresh on the right foot.
Captivate presented LIFECORE with the best digital strategy possible for building an online presence from the ground up. We’d need to ensure proper keyword mapping, build a website rooted in excellent SEO, and showcase how this eco-friendly flooring company stood out from competitors. It was a moment to help a brand new brand build market penetration and awareness by optimizing the site for non-branded, product related keywords.
In other words, we had our hands full, but our experts understood that informed decisions now would set the brand up for longterm success.
Key Issues
No Previous Digital Presence
Non-Existent Brand Awareness
Highly Competitive Landscape
Coopetition with Dealers
The ROI Focused Solution
Captivate worked with LIFECORE to understand their brand vision and goals, and built a data-driven strategy informed to help them achieve that vision.
Our team utilized their expert understanding of SEO to not only build an aesthetically pleasing website, but one that lands high in the search rankings.
Our methodology proved successful within LIFECORE’s budget, generating over 260k organic search sessions and over 3k leads since the new website launched in 2018.
In short, LIFECORE floors are now a force to be reckoned with in the flooring industry.
