Challenges
High-Value, Considered Purchases:
Products represent significant investment decisions. The SEO strategy needed to provide an unparalleled digital experience, build immense trust, and offer detailed information to facilitate these considered purchases online.
Communicating Quality and Craftsmanship Online:
Translating the tactile quality, material excellence, and design details through SEO and content required exceptional photography and descriptive copy that goes far beyond standard e-commerce.
Targeting an Affluent Audience:
Reaching high-net-worth individuals requires a nuanced approach that emphasizes exclusivity, quality, and design over price sensitivity. The content tone and chosen keywords had to reflect this.
Seasonality and Project-Based Buying:
Demand is tied to both the seasons and home renovation projects. The content strategy needed to capture intent year-round by focusing on planning and inspiration during off-seasons.
