Eggbox contributes to success of Lavender & Sage

24-01-08

Internet retailer Lavender & Sage today revealed how Sussex online marketing specialists, Eggbox, have helped build its business over the last 18 months.

Lavender & Sage hired Eggbox in 2006 prior to starting up its online and mail order shop selling a range of French country-style home furniture and accessories. Now, in a highly competitive market:

• The website is being found in searches for over 2,000 key phrases

• Rankings are high across the board, for example the retailer is currently number 2 on Google for ‘french home accessories’ in competition with approximately 4 million pages

• During 2007, unique visitors to the site increased four-fold, at a time when the overall number of visits to online retail sites rose by just 11% (ComScore)

Eggbox provided the strategy behind the launch of Lavender & Sage and have been instrumental across the marketing mix from website design, usability testing and search engine marketing to brochure copywriting and a monthly email newsletter.

Mayke Hogestijn, founder of Lavender & Sage, had this to say, “I am proud of what we have accomplished and we could not have done it without the help of Eggbox. They have been a source of insight and support and we will continue to work with them and maintain our growing success by developing the site and boosting our competitive edge. Our online profile has been significantly enhanced and our sales have increased accordingly. I would highly recommend Eggbox to anyone who wanted to see similar results for their business.”
