Challenge
International fashion markets vary significantly – even with similar consumer trends and demands, the local customer is unique. And as such, every market’s potential customer needs to consume adverts and copy that is relevant and appeals to them, in order to have a chance of converting these into sales.
A market potential had been identified but the execution required PPC campaigns and insight to make sure its expansion beyond the UK was a success.
Strategy
Working with New Era, we identified and prioritised six new European territories and created targeted Paid Search campaigns for each with landing pages, keywords and localised translated ad copy.
Using in-house and external translation skills, we were able to create compelling ads to reach potential customers within our target locations. With the knowledge that English is a common second language in Europe, campaigns were also created to capture English speaking customers to ensure that our campaigns remained relevant for expats and English-only searchers.
By manipulating the campaigns to serve the local search, traffic naturally increased and over time through optimisation, the cost-per-click reduced. As a result of our success and proven understanding of local markets and how to reach customers, Honchō not only saw positive uplift in performance but won further content projects with New Era.

Results
- Six new territories identified
- 45% increase in Traffic YOY
- 51% boost in YOY sales
