Industrial safety.

This client supplies industrial safety equipment to regional and resource-sector customers in northern Queensland. The website was not built well to sell online, and the Google Ads account was running but going nowhere.

The website could not carry ecommerce marketing, and the ads had no foundation to work from, so spending into that setup was never going to deliver good returns. Replacing the primary site outright was not the right first move, because it is wired into how stock is managed.

A separate site, built for selling online, went up alongside the inventory-linked site, and the Google Ads account was rebuilt completely. Clean measurement went in before any real spend, the account was structured around proven return rather than guesswork, and the early months ran in the knowledge they would lose money while it learned.

• A separate ecommerce site suited to online sales, with the inventory-linked site kept in place.
• A complete rebuild of the Google Ads account, structured around proven return.
• Clean conversion tracking and analytics, so the account could be judged on real sales.
• Ongoing management, with weaker campaigns trimmed as the data showed what worked.

• Sales more than quadrupled.
• Return on ad spend tripled.
• A near-dormant account turned into a steady, growing program on cold demand rather than brand harvesting.

The constraint that looks like a blocker is often a sequencing problem.

Building the path around the platform rather than through it let growth start now and earn the case for the bigger change later. An awkward website did not stop the work, and an expensive rebuild was not pushed before the numbers justified it.
