With a strategic network of alliances spanning over the globe, Glaube Logistics ensures efficient and reliable global trade solutions for its clients.
The Growth of the Logistics Industry in Saudi Arabia
Over the past five years, Saudi Arabia's logistics sector has experienced rapid growth, driven by substantial infrastructure investments, digital transformation, and government initiatives such as Vision 2030, which aims to establish the Kingdom as a global logistics hub.
Market Growth: In 2024, the Saudi logistics market was valued at approximately USD 136.3 billion and is projected to reach USD 198.9 billion by 2030, reflecting a CAGR of 6.5%.
E-commerce Boom: The rise of e-commerce and cross-border trade has led to increased demand for freight forwarding and logistics solutions, further accelerating the industry's expansion.
Tech Adoption: AI-driven logistics, route optimization, and digital freight marketplaces have reshaped customer expectations, necessitating a strong online presence for logistics firms.
Despite this growth, B2B logistics lead generation remains challenging, as traditional players rely on offline marketing and referrals. Glaube Logistics was no exception.
The Challenge
Glaube Logistics had traditionally relied on offline marketing and word-of-mouth referrals for lead generation. However, one of its founders saw an opportunity to explore digital marketing and test Google Ads as an alternative lead generation source.
Initially, the company assigned a backend operations employee—who had an interest in digital marketing—to manage Google Ads. However, due to limited experience, the campaigns were not set up correctly, lacked proper tracking, and failed to generate quality leads. As a result, the company saw poor conversion rates and wasted ad spend.
Before pulling the plug on digital marketing entirely, Glaube Logistics reached out to Growth Associates for a professional evaluation of their ad strategy.
The Solution: Optimizing Digital Strategies for Maximum Impact
When Growth Associates took over Glaube Logistics' digital marketing, we identified several critical gaps and developed a multi-layered approach to maximize ROI.
1. Google Ads Revamp: Better Targeting & Tracking
Conducted a deep audit of the existing ad campaigns and identified inefficiencies.
Performed comprehensive keyword research and competitive analysis to find high-converting search terms.
Set up proper conversion tracking to measure actual lead quality, not just clicks.
Refined ad copies, landing pages, and bidding strategies to maximize lead generation.
Adapted ad strategies multiple times in response to Google’s changing policies and algorithm updates, ensuring continued ad performance optimization.
✅ Result: Achieved 2x ROI in the first year and scaled it to 3x ROI by the third year, despite disruptions in global logistics due to supply chain crises, geopolitical tensions, and changing trade routes.
2. Website Landing Page Optimization: Enhancing User Experience for Better Conversions
While improving Google Ads was a major step, we recognized that the website’s landing pages were not optimized for conversions. A great ad can drive traffic, but a poorly designed landing page can cause drop-offs.
To improve the user journey and increase lead conversion rates, we implemented two major redesigns in the past four years, adapting to:
Shifts in industry trends
User behavior changes
Google’s evolving ad and SEO requirements
Key Changes Made:
Optimized landing pages for speed and mobile usability (ensuring faster loading times and better mobile experience).
Implemented clear CTAs ("Get a Quote," "Request a Callback") and reduced unnecessary form fields to streamline lead capture.
Used conversion-driven UI/UX strategies, such as customer testimonials, case studies, and trust signals to improve engagement.
Created custom landing pages for different services (freight forwarding, customs clearance, warehousing) for better ad relevance.
Added multilingual support (Arabic & English) to cater to a wider audience in the Middle East.
✅ Result: These optimizations led to a 30% increase in conversion rates from website visitors and a higher quality of leads for Glaube Logistics.
3. LinkedIn Strategy: Building B2B Authority & Generating Leads
Since logistics is a high-value B2B industry, we recognized the potential of LinkedIn as a key channel for lead generation.
What We Did:
Optimized Glaube Logistics’ LinkedIn company page with engaging content, service highlights, and industry insights.
Managed the personal LinkedIn profiles of the Sales Head and Co-founder, positioning them as thought leaders in the logistics industry.
Launched outreach strategies to connect with decision-makers, partners, and potential clients in the Middle East and globally.
Created a consistent content calendar, including:
Case studies showcasing successful freight forwarding projects.
Thought leadership articles on logistics trends, customs regulations, and supply chain strategies.
Success stories and client testimonials.
✅ Result: The LinkedIn strategy helped Glaube Logistics expand its industry network, generate B2B leads, and establish credibility as a leading logistics provider in the Middle East.
✅ Bonus Impact: The LinkedIn outreach campaigns resulted in direct sales inquiries, making it an additional revenue channel beyond Google Ads.
