Power Tools & Equipment | Case Study

Building a strong online presence for power tools and machinery specialists

Power Tools & Equipment (PTE) has built a renowned reputation for its portfolio of tools and machinery across a range of trades over the years, and now offer equipment for tradesmen, homeowners and hobbyists. Due to the increase in demand for their products, they needed a new E-Commerce solution that would be as smooth and easy to navigate as possible, so their customers could easily find what they need and orders could quickly be fulfilled by PTE. Talk To Media provided them with a fast, user-friendly website with a modern look and feel, and we’re seeing fantastic results after just 12 months.

"knowledge and attention to detail second to none"

"I have worked with Talk To Media for over 7 years across many advertising and marketing platforms including social media management, digital marketing and more recently website design and build. Their knowledge and attention to detail is second to none, nothing is too much trouble. The new website has enabled PTE to grow its online presence and sales to both new and existing markets, so much so that I am having a second website built by them for a new business venture. "

Results that speak for themselves

84% increase in traffic vs the previous year
£43,690 online revenue generated in the 1st year

User focused with a simple checkout process and instant quote forms

Simple navigation through to product areas were imperative for PTE as their product range is so vast and they wanted to make sure their audience could easily find what they need. From user-friendly navigation routes in the main menu, to an intuitive search feature specific to products and purposes, we made sure we had this covered. Aside from the new website being quick and the checkout process as smooth as possible through just a few clicks, we also developed an instant online quote form for customers wishing to hire a PTE product. Since the launch of the website in January 2020, we’ve received great feedback from the client and the online sales generated for the business through the new website has reflected this. We’re looking forward to supporting PTE with their digital needs as their business grows even more.
