We’re also proud that these wins continue to cement Megantic’s position at the very top of We Are Search’s Top 100 most awarded agencies for the APAC region, and 4th on the global stage.

Hello Molly – It Was ‘Add-To-Cart’ At First Site

Hello Molly is an Australian and US-based women’s fashion brand born out of the belief that every girl should have access to on-trend wardrobe essentials that don’t break the bank.

A primary goal of this campaign was to increase non-branded sessions by 100% year-on-year. The outcome of this campaign led to a combined Australia & US organic revenue increase of 148%.

“Megantic has showcased the gold standard in strategic excellence! Their meticulous planning, coupled with flawless execution, is a testament to their expertise and commitment to success.” – The APAC Search Awards Judges

Ripe Maternity – From Seed to Success

For over 25 years, Ripe Maternity have been designing carefully considered fashion for women on their pregnancy journey. Established in Australia, their garments are shipped world-wide.

Megantic were engaged to help Ripe Maternity grow their organic channel and new customer acquisition. We calculated a breakeven based on average sale value, current transitions and gross profit to come up with commercial and acquisition goals to ensure the client gained ROI from the project. We also introduced optimised category pages, which led to a 46.5% increase in new users.

“Their methodical approach to tackling challenges and the excellent execution of solutions were evident throughout. The results were awe-inspiring, with a significant revenue increase that exceeded targets” – The APAC Search Awards Judges

Every Battery – Ohm, Watt a Strategy!

Every Battery was founded to create a battery store that provided independent battery advice to its customers, as most major chains are owned or affiliated with major battery brands.

Our SEO strategy, delivered an advanced landing page solution involving programmatic SEO that led to a 576% increase in first-page rankings for Every Battery. The Technical Project Manager for this campaign, Amy Talbot, was a finalist for the Emerging Talent Award at the APAC Search Awards. Her unique blend of SEO expertise, data science skills, and effective communication has had a profound impact on this campaign, and we’re incredibly proud to see her hard work recognised.

“This was an excellent campaign featuring strong revenue targets, deep audience insights, and a smart, user-centric strategy.” – APAC Search Awards Judges

Every nominee and win represents the success of our clients and the hard work of our technical project managers. A huge thank you to the judges for recognising our innovations in eCommerce SEO and to everyone involved in making the event possible – sponsors, partners, and hosts. Well done to all nominees and winners, we’re excited to be part of this industry.
