Game-changing Solutions for Food & Beverage Retailing: 

Let’s understand the role of digital marketing in the food and beverage industry first. The recent COVID-19 pandemic propelled the growth of e-commerce within the food and beverage industry. As consumers remained confined to their homes, they relied on online channels to cater to the need for essentials and premium products within the realm of the food and beverage business. Over the past two years, e-commerce has witnessed phenomenal growth. This has remained a constant as the world recovers from the impact of the pandemic and consumers begin to venture out for shopping. E-commerce continues to hold its place as a distribution channel for the F&B industry at par with the physical one.  

The prosperity of the food and beverage market has encouraged the arrival of numerous players, which is heightening the competition. In this scenario of multiple players and high stakes, it has become essential to reign supreme over the digital channels to stay in the game. Companies without an effective digital presence are most likely to dwindle into oblivion in today’s world. 

The Challenges of the F&B Client: 

Our client, a leading F&B player, was facing issues concerning driving conversions despite having a significant amount of high-quality content on their website. This client chose to partner with Quantzig to improve its customer journey through the sales funnel by providing optimized pieces of content targeting potential customers. Though they had curated content, the lack of an appropriate content optimization strategy and intense competition in the industry led to decreasing content impressions, organic search rankings, and traffic. 

The client sought to identify the underlying issues affecting its marketing strategy and implement better digital marketing approaches to increase its marketing response. Additionally, the client wanted to improve its SEO ranking, maximize its organic search exposure, and increase its content impressions driven towards generating leads and increasing sales.  

Food & Beverage Digital Marketing- Content Optimization Approach: 

Quantzig used a content optimization strategy which enabled us to create SEO-optimized content for our client. Our approach helped us organize, understand and summarize a large amount of content and textual information available on our client’s website. We also set about to create a well-defined content optimization strategy involving in-depth keyword research. 

The first step in our approach involved conducting a series of audits and creating a detailed, prioritized content optimization action plan. We evaluated our client’s content with our analysis tools to determine the base-level optimization rate, checking for various aspects such as the density of keywords used and the length of elements such as the text, title, and meta description. Our analysts then performed advanced keyword research to create a strategic keyword theme document used as a foundation for our content optimization process.
