Vagabond Digital

From broad outreach to niche dominance

Helping a creative agency discover their niche market through testing campaign angles and ultimately opening up a qualified sales pipeline of fitness and sportswear brands.

The Challenge

The Challenge

Vagabond Digital initially aimed to promote their paid advertising services (including PPC, paid social, creative, and organic social) across a wide range of industries. They explored two main campaign angles: one targeting marketplaces and retailers that stock multiple brands, and another focused on providing supplementary social content to support TV ad campaigns. However, the messaging failed to cut through in crowded inboxes. Despite broad outreach across multiple sectors, response rates remained low and results were modest.

The Approach

The Approach

Harper rigorously tested the campaigns using LinkedIn and email outreach across five different industry sectors. By applying personalised messaging and a soft call to action, we identified clear patterns and high-potential opportunities. Through continuous iteration and data-driven refinement, we pinpointed the sportswear industry as the standout performer, delivering the strongest and most consistent responses. Harper then guided a strategic pivot to focus exclusively on this high-performing sector, maximising efficiency and impact.
