Overview

Bistro Trailers is a UK-based catering trailer manufacturer specialising in custom-built mobile kitchen solutions. As a growing business, the company was looking to strengthen its online presence and generate more enquiries from customers across the UK.

Phoenix Media partnered with Bistro Trailers to support lead generation through search marketing, helping the business connect with individuals and companies looking to start or expand their mobile catering operations.

The Challenge

Search results for catering trailers are highly competitive, with a mix of manufacturers, classified listing websites, forums, and informational content competing for visibility.

There are also many different search terms used within the industry, including variations such as catering trailers and food trucks. This made it important to distinguish between users looking to buy a trailer and those simply searching for places to eat. The objective was to target high-intent users and attract enquiries from potential buyers rather than general search traffic.

The Approach

Phoenix Media focused on search-led marketing to capture demand from users actively looking to purchase catering trailers.

A comprehensive Google Ads campaign was developed to target high-intent keywords, while an SEO strategy was implemented to improve organic visibility across relevant search terms. This approach ensured the business could appear prominently for both paid and organic searches, helping drive consistent enquiries from across the UK.

The Results

The Google Ads campaign delivered immediate results, generating enquiries at an average cost per lead of around £14. The majority of leads came through phone calls, which were effectively tracked using Google's call tracking capabilities.

From an SEO perspective, the campaign achieved strong organic performance, with top three rankings secured for 90% of target keywords within six months. This included broader variations such as food trucks and specific trailer categories, expanding the reach beyond initial keyword targets.

As a result, the website saw a 151% increase in organic traffic compared to the previous year, helping drive a consistent pipeline of enquiries from across the UK.

We've been working with Rob and PK at Phoenix Media since 2024 and have seen strong results from both Google Ads and SEO, which has had a positive impact on our business.

We've also recently commissioned them to revamp our website, which we're looking forward to launching soon. Although their office is based in Bangkok, communication has always been smooth, and the team have been flexible and helpful with all of our requests.

We would happily recommend them to any business looking for support with their online marketing.
