Digital Marketing Case Study [Jacob Evans Kitchen & Bath]
About Jacob Evans Kitchen & Bath
Jacob Evans is a kitchen and bath company that creates stunning living spaces for clients in the Pittsburgh, PA, area.
Michael Bonato, owner of Jacob Evans Kitchen & Bath, knew his website needed a new look as it had been about 9 years since the site was last updated. He wanted a responsive site that worked well not only on desktop and laptop computers, but also for mobile and tablet.
Top Business Services Jacob Evans provides:
- Kitchen Remodeling
- Bathroom Remodeling
- Kitchen Cabinets
- Kitchen Design
Previous Digital Marketing Experience
Michael approached a digital marketing firm to discuss their services, however, he was disappointed with the long process and extensive paperwork that the firm required to get started.
In addition, the firm did not provide essential digital marketing services, such as SEO, local listing management, PPC or review management, and offered no way to track site traffic, leads or search engine ranking performance.
Why Jacob Evans Chose Locallogy
Michael knew about Locallogy through his affiliation with BKBG (Bath & Kitchen Buying Group) so he decided to reach out. Much to his surprise, the fees to create a new site were very reasonable and the process was streamlined, making it less time-consuming from his side to get the project completed.
With Locallogy’s digital marketing experience for remodelers, plus the fact that they worked with many of the BKBG Kitchen and Bath dealers, Locallogy was an obvious choice.
Main Goals for New Website & Digital Marketing Campaign
Moving forward with the digital marketing campaign, Locallogy decided to focus on these goals:
- Upgrade website to a responsive platform catering for BOTH mobile and desktop
- New site design to have a fresh, modern look (the old site had an outdated design)
- Create a layout that is easy for users to navigate and find relevant information
- Increase local search result rankings on Google and
- Turn more visitors into leads by increasing conversion rate

- Incorporate Showroom Showcase feature into the site to attract prospects to the showroom
