Client Background
A mid-sized freight and cargo logistics provider approached our marketing agency to overhaul their website. With operations across multiple regions and offerings like B2B freight, warehouse solutions, and cross-border transport, their digital presence was not aligned with their operational scale. The website lacked user interactivity, credibility markers, and visibility—leading to a drop in inquiries and logistics partnership opportunities.
Challenges
- Outdated website not optimized for mobile or SEO
- No real-time quote generation or shipment tracking system
- Poor visibility in search engine rankings
- Low form conversion and minimal lead generation
- No integration between web assets and ongoing marketing campaigns
Objective
The client aimed to:
- Position themselves as a reliable freight partner via a modernized site
- Improve conversion through quick inquiry/booking forms
- Attract large-volume shippers through service-specific pages
- Integrate digital systems for quote, tracking, and documentation
- Improve ROI from ongoing marketing campaigns with better attribution
Strategy Adopted
As a specialized marketing company, we crafted a web development strategy focused on:
- Freight-focused UI/UX that clearly explained B2B capabilities
- Real-time inquiry forms with automated lead routing
- Custom dashboards for shipment tracking (linked to CRM)
- Logistics service pages with SEO-rich content for organic visibility
- Landing pages tied to ad-specific marketing campaigns
- Live chat support integration for quicker conversion
Implementation
Over a 45-day sprint, our developers delivered:
- A fast, mobile-friendly website built on Laravel with custom freight tools
- A “Get Instant Quote” module that pulled from logistics parameters (volume, weight, region)
- Shipment tracking plug-in synced with internal ERP
- Dedicated service pages (LTL, warehousing, cold chain, cross-border) with lead forms
- Blog and news section to share case studies and market updates
- Integration with WhatsApp and chatbot for 24/7 client communication
Each landing page aligned with freight-specific marketing campaigns that targeted import-export traders, regional logistics managers, and B2B partners.
Results
- 3x increase in quote form submissions within 2 months
- 70% rise in organic visibility for freight-related keywords
- 2.4x growth in monthly lead generation
- Improved site speed by 65%, boosting mobile retention
- Reduced dependency on customer support through online tracking access
The partnership with our marketing agency resulted in a measurable uptick in freight bookings and partner trust.
