Hello everyone, I am Stella Tan, Managing Director of FIRST FLOOR DECO (M) SDN BHD. Our company specializes in the wholesale and installation engineering of indoor and outdoor decorative materials. Our scope covers high-end flooring (SPC, SSP, LVT vinyl flooring, engineered wood flooring), flooring accessories, artificial grass, indoor and outdoor fluted panels, ceiling panels, as well as customized mirrors and comprehensive surface materials with professional services.
In the past, we relied heavily on traditional customer acquisition models such as referral networks, traditional social media, and offline exhibitions. As market competition intensified, the bottleneck of acquiring customers became increasingly apparent. After partnering with the NEWPAGES team to build a systematic search engine website, we broke through our past network limitations and successfully secured a major project contract to supply and install flooring for an entire building of a renowned international school, achieving a leap into the high-value B2B institutional engineering procurement market.
Bottlenecks of Traditional Customer Acquisition & Market Awakening
Before having our own professional website, we always adopted very traditional customer acquisition methods, such as contacting via WhatsApp, promoting on Facebook, personal network referrals, and attending exhibitions.
While these traditional methods maintained basic business operations, their limitations were also very obvious:
Restricted Network Circle
Customer sources brought by existing client referrals and exhibitions were relatively fixed, making it difficult to reach completely new, unfamiliar major clients.
Shift in Customer Behavior
We noticed that nowadays, many customers search for information and research online on their own whenever they have a need.
This made us deeply realize: online visibility is extremely crucial. Without online exposure, we miss out on a massive volume of potential clients actively searching for services.
Reasons for Building a Website & Laying Out SEO
Facing changes in the market environment, we decided to establish a professional website and deploy Search Engine Optimization (SEO), mainly based on the following considerations:
Intensifying Market Competition
The marginal benefit of traditional acquisition channels is diminishing; enterprises must seek new points of revenue growth.
Enhance Personal & Corporate Brand Awareness
We wanted to build a more credible corporate image so that more unfamiliar prospective clients who do not know us can actively find us, thereby expanding our brand's influence in the market.
Positive Results After Partnering with NEWPAGES
After establishing the website and implementing SEO, we obtained very direct and profound positive results.
The most typical case was our successful securing of the flooring project for the entire building of a renowned international school. The scale of this project was huge, fully handled and completed by our company from materials to installation.
The procurement team of this international school found our website precisely through Google search and subsequently established cooperation with us. Major B2B clients like international schools or large corporations place extreme emphasis on corporate professionalism and legitimacy when searching for suppliers; they usually search directly on Google for professional companies rather than browsing casually on social platforms.
Without building a website and obtaining exposure on Google, top-tier clients like this would simply never have found us.
