Palet.

‍Bringing a Digital-First Approach to a Design-First Brand

What started as a challenge to convert interest into action has become a scalable, data-driven marketing engine. By focusing on sample orders as the first conversion, segmenting audiences, and optimising paid channels, we’ve helped Palet grow efficiently while maintaining brand integrity.

Palet is redefining ceramic tiles—offering fully custom glazed surfaces for homeowners and design professionals. Their challenge wasn’t about convincing people that their tiles were exceptional (that part was easy). The real challenge was helping people take the first step—ordering a sample set.

Where We Started: Key Challenges

1. Driving Sample Orders as the First Conversion Step

Since Palet’s tiles are made-to-order and highly custom, customers needed to physically see and feel them before committing to a larger purchase. Our priority was increasing sample set orders—knowing this would be the key to driving full-scale tile sales later on.

2. Optimising for Two Audiences (B2B & B2C)

We needed to create distinct messaging for:

Homeowners → Looking for a unique tile to elevate their home.

Architects & Interior Designers → Seeking a professional-grade, customisable surface solution.

Both audiences had different buying journeys, so we needed a personalised approach rather than a one-size-fits-all strategy.

3. Scaling Paid Ads Efficiently

With a limited budget, every euro needed to work harder. We had to build a lean but highly effective paid marketing strategy across Google, Meta, and Pinterest, ensuring high ROAS and sustained growth.

The Strategy: Data-Driven, Automated, and Focused on Conversion

1. Paid Ads That Delivered a 15x ROAS

We launched a full-funnel Google, Meta and Pinterest campaign, optimising for sample set orders rather than generic traffic. By focusing on high-intent keywords (custom ceramic tiles, buy bespoke tiles online), we:

  • Increased sample orders at a lower cost per conversion
  • Drove a 15x ROAS, proving that every euro spent brought significant returns

2. Email Automation That Moved Customers from Interest to Action

With sample orders increasing, the next step was nurturing those leads into full tile purchases. We built two key email flows:

  • Post-Catalogue Flow (For Professionals) → Encouraging architects to order a complimentary sample box
  • Post-Sample Flow (For All Customers) → A step-by-step sequence guiding users to buy square metres after receiving their samples

By A/B testing subject lines, CTAs, and content, we:

  • Boosted open rates to 40%
  • Increased click-through rates on sample-to-purchase emails by 18%

3. SEO Optimisation: Making Palet Easier to Find

With more interest in Palet’s tiles, we focused on improving organic discoverability. We updated meta titles and descriptions to ensure key pages ranked higher for relevant search terms, like custom ceramic tiles and bespoke glazed tiles.

Beyond on-page SEO, we also linked Palet’s product catalogue to Google Merchant Center, allowing products to appear in Google Shopping searches, increasing visibility and driving more qualified traffic to the shop.

These optimisations helped capture high-intent users actively searching for custom tiles, complementing our paid efforts and improving overall conversion rates.

"They combine an entrepreneurial mindset with a deep understanding of online advertising. They balance strategic thinking with data-led tactics which helped us both drive growth and value for Palet."
