What Refuel did in October

Hey racers, it's been a while since we've caught you up on everything that's going on at Refuel Creative. So buckle up and get ready for an adrenaline-fuelled ride as we take you through our major wins for the month.

In this blog, we're thrilled to share the incredible achievements we've accomplished for our clients. It's been a month full of triumphs and breakthroughs as we've worked closely with businesses to help them grow and succeed in their marketing goals.

Google Ads: All aboard the ferry to ROAS-land

Throughout this month, we have achieved remarkable successes for our clients across the board. Collaborating closely with businesses, we have propelled them towards their marketing goals through our proven strategies and innovative design solutions.

SeaLink Marine and Tourism, one of the largest tourism operators in Australia, has been a loyal client of ours for over 5 years. Recently, we visited Cape Jervis (the departure point for the SeaLink Kangaroo Island ferry), where our videographer Fraser filmed video content for our case study. Our case study focuses on our success across their Pay Per Click (PPC) and Search Engine Marketing (SEM) strategies. 


Since embarking on this project in 2019, the results have been remarkable. SeaLink has experienced a staggering 650% increase in conversions, a 270% increase in conversion value, a remarkable 78% reduction in cost per conversion, and a significant 62% increase in spending. These achievements are a testament to the power of data-driven solutions and our commitment to helping businesses thrive in the ever-evolving landscape of digital marketing

HubSpot: Trophies in the cabinet


But that's not all! We've also achieved yet another impressive win. Refuel Creative was crowned the winner for the Asia-Pacific region in the prestigious Platform Excellence category at HubSpot's highly anticipated semi-annual 2023 Impact Awards. This incredible recognition is awarded to members of the HubSpot Solution Partner Program who consistently go above and beyond to help their clients thrive.

Our exceptional work with K-TIG, collaborating closely with their marketing, sales, and customer service teams to revamp their strategy and optimise their HubSpot usage. Additionally, we designed and developed a brand-new website that focused on driving conversions and generating leads, resulting in an astounding 172% increase in leads and a remarkable 45% surge in website traffic within the first three months.

Turbocharge your MER

Let's take a thrilling ride on the race track of Marketing Efficiency Ratio (MER) and discover why it's crucial to keep a close eye on this number. This essential metric serves as a guide to determine whether your business is achieving optimal results and crossing the finish line with flying colors. By using a simple formula, you can evaluate if you're meeting your KPIs and select the key metric to focus on.

Navigate the marketing funnel

Strap yourself in for an exhilarating journey through the modern marketing funnel, where each tactic, tool, and channel has its own dedicated lane. While marketing funnels may vary in appearance, we adhere to the essential four stages of awareness, consideration, decision, and retention. These crucial stages serve as the guiding principles that help determine how to prioritize your marketing efforts, ensuring that you achieve outstanding results. Look at the suggestions to use the marketing funnel to its full potential in our blog.

Running trade promotions on Meta ads

In 2022, Meta made significant updates to its marketing policy for gambling and gaming services. As a result, advertisers are now required to seek permission before running any advertisements under this new policy. This requirement extends to companies that may not be primarily focused on gambling or gaming but engage in trade promotions that involve competition. Therefore, businesses must ensure that their design and content align with the specific requirements set by Meta. Read our full blog to understand the new Meta policy and ensure your account doesn’t get suspended.

Pitcrew, over and out.

That's all for this month's update from Refuel Creative. We hope you've enjoyed the ride and are as excited as we are about our major wins and industry insights.
