2025 review: £500k in closed-won revenue.

The brief

2025 marked STRAT7’s first year going to market as STRAT7 Group, rather than the previous approach where individual agencies had their own marketing budgets to acquire customers. This created uncertainty around how the consolidated brand would perform across digital channels.

STRAT7 needed an agency partner to support their digital marketing across paid and organic, establishing performance benchmarks, and driving revenue growth.

The approach

We developed a multi-channel strategy across SEO, Google Ads, and LinkedIn, targeting
high-intent searches and queries. We created promotional content and new landing pages
to drive conversions, focusing on consideration and decision stages where we could prove ROI fastest.

Throughout the year we consistently analysed and optimised performance to understand what worked – from campaign structure right through to messaging and creative. A key outcome was adopting an industry-focused approach across both Google Ads and LinkedIn, ensuring we targeted demand from the most relevant and valuable industries for STRAT7.

As AI’s influence grew, we developed content and optimised the website specifically for LLMs, ensuring STRAT7 appeared in AI Overviews and platforms like ChatGPT.
