SendFlowersToday.net - 145% growth in holiday sales

January 2006

Beacon announces that another one of its search engine marketing clients, SendFlowersToday.net, realized a hugely successful holiday season in online sales. The company is a NC based flower shop that delivers flowers, bouquets, plants and gift baskets worldwide through the Teleflora network. The online flower delivery industry is one of the most competitive on the internet, so the company hired Beacon to help increase their market share. Beacon’s Search Engine Marketing Team has implemented many different online marketing strategies (natural and paid placement) and continuously tunes pages, listings, and bids to maintain an edge. “Year over year, the company has at least doubled its sales and we expect similar results in 2006,” says Mark Dirks, Beacon’s President. “Interestingly, during this past holiday season, we actually REDUCED the budget for paid listings significantly because the visibility through natural placement was so strong. This allowed the customer to recognize even higher profits for the period.”
