ugonnafish : Fishing Trip booking platform

How Get-To-Rev Boosted Ugonnafish’s Booking Rate by 200%
Through Targeted Facebook Messenger, Instagram, and SEO Strategies

Get-To-Rev helped Ugonnafish, a fishing trip booking platform, increase customer bookings through a mix of digital marketing channels and payment integration support.

The mission

Ugonnafish is a fishing trip booking platform that connects fishing enthusiasts with professional guides and charter services across various locations. They needed help driving more traffic to their site, increasing bookings, and integrating a seamless payment process for users.

Despite having a user-friendly platform, Ugonnafish struggled to reach their target audience, boost conversions, and offer a smooth payment experience for users. They also lacked a comprehensive marketing strategy to leverage their online presence.

 

The work

Over the course of four months, Get-To-Rev implemented a strategic and multi-channel digital marketing plan that transformed Ugonnafish’s business. Starting with the launch of a Facebook Messenger bot, Instagram ads, influencer collaborations, and a robust AdWords campaign in the first month, the platform quickly gained traction.

By Month 2, these efforts were scaled and optimized, leading to significant improvements in engagement, traffic, and conversions.

During Month 3, the SEO efforts intensified, and the influencer campaign expanded, bringing in more organic traffic and bookings. By Month 4, the integration of payment solutions with Stripe was fully optimized, while new ad channels and retargeting campaigns were explored, ensuring continuous growth.

As a result, Ugonnafish saw a 200% increase in bookings, a 250% boost in website traffic, and a 30% decrease in cost-per-acquisition (CPA). The seamless Stripe payment integration reduced friction in the checkout process, enhancing the user experience. Get-To-Rev’s systematic approach not only helped Ugonnafish achieve immediate growth but also set the stage for long-term scalability and success.

Conclusion

 Get-To-Rev’s strategic approach, combining Facebook Messenger, Instagram marketing, influencer partnerships, SEO work, and AdWords, allowed Ugonnafish to grow its customer base and streamline the booking process. With seamless payment integration through Stripe, Ugonnafish delivered a superior user experience that converted more leads into bookings.
