BRAND TRANSFORMATION / DIGITAL / E-COMMERCE

From specialist manufacturer.
To modern digital brand.

Reframing how Spafax presented its products, rebuilding the digital customer journey and opening new routes to market.

MY ROLE

Marketing & Sales Coordinator

Working directly with the Managing Director and sales team to connect marketing activity with customer acquisition and wider business development.

THE SCOPE

Brand narrative, proposition development, website, e-commerce, SEO, content, social media, PR, campaigns and sales enablement.

CROSS-MARKET DEVELOPMENT

From established defence and commercial-vehicle audiences into Land Rover, off-road, agriculture and construction.

THE STARTING POINT

Strong products.
New routes to market.

Spafax had decades of specialist expertise and products designed for demanding, safety-critical environments. My role was to build on that foundation, developing its digital presence and helping communicate the products’ relevance to a broader range of customers.

The work brought together website development, product content and e-commerce, supporting customers as they discovered, understood and purchased from the range.

BEFORE / AFTER

EVENTS & EXHIBITIONS

Taking the brand into the room.

Bringing Spafax’s specialist products and customer propositions into physical spaces through exhibition presentation, product displays and branded materials.

A POINT OF VIEW

“A website transformation only matters if the business around it becomes easier for the customer to understand and buy from.”

Chris Dale

WHAT THIS EXPERIENCE SHOWS

Transformation beyond the website.

Spafax demonstrates how I approach change when several problems are connected. The website, brand narrative, market positioning, content and e-commerce were not separate projects; they were different parts of the same customer and commercial challenge.

It was also an important step in my progression from hands-on marketing delivery towards thinking more strategically about proposition, customer journeys and how marketing supports wider business growth.
