Kao Collins Inc.
Emerging as a Global Inkjet Contender
Challenges

Tell the story of the company’s innovative existing and new products and services, known by few outside their base of loyal customers.
-
Make the brand familiar to the industrial inkjet OEMs, major commercial printers and the packaging industry.
Strategy
High Performance Website
Impatient users abandon slow websites, especially in emerging markets. Fast page loading speeds would be key. The website would also need to adhere to international standards for accessibility and be built to best practices for user experience.
Organic Search Optimization
Since B2B business primarily originates online, keyword research identified the greatest opportunities for improving SEO and organic search traffic across the website’s pages and blog articles.
International Reach
Attracting international audiences in Europe and emerging markets in Asia involved demographic research and understanding search trends. A unique Mandarin-language site hosted in China would reach the coveted market.
Integrated Marketing
Engage audiences at key touchpoints across digital and offline marketing channels, including integrated campaigns leveraging social media, email marketing, earned media, experiential events, and trade publication advertising.
Expert Content
Publishing high-quality content through informational blog articles would establish credibility, build the brand’s authority in the industry, and improve site performance and rankings within targeted search results.
Technical SEO
Keywords are just one small part of an effective search optimization formula, so the website needed technical SEO that would enhance the user experience, including powerful metadata, improved page loading speed, and advanced structured data.
Solutions
We combined a scalable, high-performance website with brand elevation and multinational integrated marketing to transform an industrial inkjet ink manufacturer from invisible to irresistible, reaching high value industrial printing prospects around the world and driving explosive growth in new business leads.
