Rise Bar had been in business for about 11 years but growth had slowed after the first few years and eventually plateaud for the last 4-5 years. They were looking for a growth strategy to reinvigorate the brand and its sales.

The condo developer wanted to quickly sell a condo project in Victoria, BC. We were on the content team and the performance marketing team to increase visibility and desire in a highly competitive market.

The client had a small sales team, so we created efficient systems and utilized automation to turn the small sales staff into a sales force by leveraging their energy on ready-to-buy prospects.

Founded by CEO Don Halpern, the company's chief competitive advantage is their products' unique patented features and material that prevent the bag from being opened or broken into. Their product features are unique and cannot be found with any other companies on the market. In 2017, Loctote was featured on Shark Tank where they successfully garnered an investment deal with Shark Tank investor Robert Herjavec. The company successfully established eCommerce and wholesale distribution channels but needed help improving the profitability of their paid advertising strategy for their eCommerce channel. When we began working with the Loctote company, they were experiencing issues that were interfering with the profitability of their paid advertising channels. While the company’s initial online advertising campaigns had been successful in the beginning, over time due to the increasing complexity and competitiveness of advertising platforms, the ad campaigns had declined in performance. Due to these issues, the company was experiencing a downturn in online revenue, an increase in wasted ad spend, and a decline in ROAS across all online advertising channels.

Client was struggling with a business that had steadily decreasing revenue over the course of 3 years. This was sped up by the fact they went through an acquisition that wasn't integrating with their parent company quickly.

The client has over 5,000 SKU's, and a percentage of sales comes over the phone, losing performance insights.

One of the areas our client was struggling with was that they wanted to continually increase the ROAS targets; which was driving down spend and overall revenue. This was even more challenging, given some of the tracking challenges.

The client also didn't have a cohesive affiliate or promotions strategy.
