Introduction
Warehouse Gift is a brand that purchases gift bags, envelopes, and luggage tags. Initially, it was an offline store. The products were good, but the business was limited to local customers only.
When the brand tried to move online, it did not get the results as per the requirement. Sales were inconsistent, and marketing efforts were not working properly. At that point, digiVirus took action to support the brand’s online development.
The Challenge
Even after going online, Warehouse Gift faced several problems:
- They were running Google Search Ads, but these did not bring enough sales
- Their products are not daily-need items, so people do not usually search for them
- The cost of ads was high compared to the results
- The website was not properly designed to convert visitors into buyers
- They were targeting the wrong audience
Overall, the strategy was not matching the type of products they were selling.
The Goal
digiVirus set clear and simple goals to improve the business:
- Build a stable online income instead of depending on offline sales
- Achieve a profitable return on ads (ROAS) as quickly as possible
- Reach people who are actually interested in gifting and lifestyle products
- Increase brand awareness so more people know about Warehouse Gift
- Create a strong online presence
- Improve the website so visitors can easily browse and buy
More detailed goals included:
- Increase website conversion rate and more buyers from visitors
- Reduce bounce rate rather than people leaving the site quickly
- Make the buying process easy and smooth
- Lower the cost of getting new customers
- Build a natural system that can grow easily in the future
- Use data and results to make better decisions
- Focus on future growth, not just temperley sales

After studying the business, digiVirus know that Warehouse Gift is a lifestyle and interest-based product, not something people search for directly.

- Tried different ads and audiences
- Focused more on what was working
- Improved performance step by step
The Results
The new strategy started showing results very quickly:
- Around 3X ROAS in the first month
- Increased to 4–5X ROAS in the second month
- Reached 7–8X ROAS by the third and fourth month
- Achieved a stable monthly revenue of ₹5–6 lakhs
Other improvements included:
