About the Company

The company is a leading manufacturer of high-quality injection-molded plastic threaded closures, producing hundreds of orders each month. Their products support multiple industries including food, spice, condiment, personal care, chemical, and agricultural applications.

The Challenge

The manufacturer needed a stronger and more consistent flow of sales for its plastic caps and closures. Selling into many different industries made it difficult to stand apart, and without a defined market position, their message blended in with competitors. This limited their online visibility and weakened their search performance, which reduced lead volume and lead quality.

The Strategy

Repositioning the Company and Optimizing the Website

We partnered with the leadership team to get a deep understanding of the business, then repositioned the company as a world-class manufacturer with a personal, family-run feel — big enough to handle any volume, yet small enough to stay focused on service, quality, and the smallest details.

Our team rebuilt the website from the ground up: updating product pages, refining messaging, and organizing content around how buyers search for caps and closure providers. Every page was rebuilt around buyer intent, backed by solid SEO fundamentals and clearer site navigation that naturally leads prospects to request a quote or start the conversation.

Launching Organic and Paid Search Campaigns Targeting
High-Intent Keywords

Out of more than 100 keywords the company wanted to rank for, only a small number were visible to buyers actually searching for caps and closures. The redesigned site improved organic rankings immediately, but we extended that momentum with paid search.

We launched a restructured Google Ads campaign built around the exact high-intent terms buyers use when they’re ready to request quotes—driving immediate demand while organic rankings continued to grow.

The Results

Search visibility improved significantly, with 89 of the 146 targeted keywords reaching the first page of Google. With stronger organic visibility and a focused paid search program, monthly qualified leads jumped from 2–5 to 45–60.The improvement in visibility, access to product information, and conversion paths turned their website into a reliable source of new business and supported millions of dollars in pipeline revenue.

Why This Matters

Manufacturers face more competition than ever. Buyers expect clear information up front, evaluate suppliers online, and compare options long before they ever speak with sales. Relying on referrals, reps, and trade shows alone simply isn’t enough anymore.

  • Your buyers research online long before they ever talk to sales.

  • If your website isn’t visible in search, competitors who are will win the business.

  • Your website should play an active role in bringing in qualified opportunities.

  • Marketing and sales must work from the same strategy to convert demand effectively.

This case study shows what happens when a manufacturer invests in a digital presence that supports how buyers actually research and make decisions.
