LOCAL RETAIL & ECOMMERCE

Product discovery that converts to revenue.

Local retailers, boutiques, specialty stores, and D2C ecommerce brands. Retail advertising is a performance game — every dollar spent needs to produce a measurable return. We build Shopping feeds, performance campaigns, and retargeting stacks that do exactly that.

THE CHALLENGE

Competing with major retailers on a fraction of their budget.

Retail advertising means competing with Myer, David Jones, Amazon, and Kmart for the same product keywords — at a fraction of their budget. The way independent retailers and D2C brands win is through specificity: a narrow, well-defined product niche where you can dominate the Shopping results page, combined with Meta Ads for upper-funnel discovery and retargeting for the 95% of product viewers who do not buy on first visit. A health training business running Shopping alongside Search generated 80,800 total bookings in FY25 — Shopping contributing both direct sales and brand awareness at a lower marginal cost than expanding the Search budget.
