Manettas

Reaching Deloitte 50 Fastest Growing Tech Companies

From Facebook Ads to Full-Scale Strategy

I was initially engaged to run Manettas Facebook Ads, and drive sales via their online store. And due to the initial success, I was soon running their Google Ads & Search Engine Optimisations as well.

When working with Manettas Seafood Markets, one of the key elements to the success was the development of an effective retargeting system. As a consultant, it was crucial for me to understand the priorities of the target market and tailor the strategy accordingly. Given the focus on seafood products, it was important to highlight these in our retargeting efforts, drawing on the familiarity of the Manettas brand and its offerings.

Manettas wants to compete with large supermarkets like Coles & Woolworths and take some of their market share.
