How a Fashion Brand Scaled to $2.4M Revenue with Omnichannel SEO
From single-channel Shopify store to dominating Google Shopping, Amazon, and organic search—generating 347% revenue growth in 12 months
Client Overview
This sustainable athleisure brand had a beautiful Shopify store and product-market fit, but struggled to scale beyond $700K annual revenue. They were spending 87% of revenue on Instagram/Facebook ads with diminishing returns. They needed diversified, sustainable traffic channels.
The Challenge
Breaking free from paid social dependency and scaling to 8 figures
🎯 Key Challenges
- Paid Ad Dependency: 87% of revenue from Instagram/Facebook ads with rising CPMs (up 142% YoY)
- Limited Organic Visibility: Shopify store had only 8,700 monthly organic visitors despite strong product reviews
- Missing Amazon Opportunity: Zero presence on Amazon where competitors were generating $2M+/year
- Poor Product Discoverability: Not showing in Google Shopping results for high-intent queries like "sustainable yoga pants"
- Weak Technical SEO: Shopify store had 2.8s load time, no product schema, duplicate content issues
- Single-Channel Risk: Vulnerable to iOS 14.5 tracking changes that decimated Facebook ROAS
The breaking point: iOS 14.5 update caused Facebook ROAS to drop from 4.2x to 1.8x in 3 months. Burning $47K/month on ads to maintain $54K revenue. Unsustainable.
