DURATION1 YEAR
Aim
Narayana Health exponentially grows its website traffic through top-notch digital campaigns
Founded by Dr. Devi Shetty in 2003, Narayana Health is a renowned hospital group operating a network of hospitals across India. NH has 23 hospitals, 7 heart centers, 19 primary care facilities across India and an international hospital in the Cayman Islands. The hospital aims to deliver high-quality, affordable healthcare services to the broader population by leveraging the economies of scale, skilled doctors, and an efficient business model.
Challenges Faced
Like every organisation trying to optimize their digital space, NH was actively in search of a strategic partner to maximize their online presence. Even with leading medical specialities like Left Ventricular Assist Device [LVAD] and Artificial Heart Transplantation program, somehow, their brand awareness was lacking the much-deserved acknowledgment as compared to their counterparts.
They were in search of a strategic solutions partner to enhance their medical specialities on the digital space. This will help in achieving the following for NH:
- Increased brand awareness online through social media paid campaigns (Facebook, Instagram & Google Display Network)
- To promote their corporate tie-up packages through LinkedIn & Google paid campaigns (B2B)
- Awareness of medical specialities available at their hospitals
- Accessibility of critical medical care for patients in need
Our Approach
Forest received the inquiry from Narayana Health regarding their concerns. So, we made an appointment with the marketing representatives of Narayana Health to know their requirements. Post our meeting, our team drafted a detailed plan to help NH meet their desired goal.
Strategy planned
We found out that their keyword structure wasn’t organized. So, the first thing we did was, break down and categorize their keywords. Post that, we pushed enough content in the form of blogs, testimonials, case studies etc to support each keyword in the group.

Rittal
CAMPAIGN YEAR2018-2019
DURATION5 months
Aim
Rittal achieves a 31% increase in traffic on their website due to successful digital campaigns.
Rittal is a German company manufacturing electrical enclosures for use in industrial settings. Founded in 1961, Rittal is a subsidiary of the Friedhelm Loh Group with branches around the world including India. "Rittal offers a perfectly coordinated system platform where it unites innovative productions, pioneer engineering solutions and global service to accommodate the most diverse requirements. It caters to a whole host of industries, from machinery and plant engineering to the automotive industry, through to information technology
Challenges Faced
Rittal found that overall organic traffic to their website for non-branded keywords was very low. Compared to Siemens - their major competitor, Rittal was facing a downfall in their organic SERP rankings even after having a wide range of products & services. Their competitors, on the other hand, were scaling up much better on the non-branded keywords of their respective industries. The goals were to surpass last year’s performance and cut into the market share of their largest competitor.
As Rittal is a B2B company, they wanted to increase their quality leads generated through Google and LinkedIn.
- Increased brand awareness online through social media paid campaigns (Facebook, Instagram & Google Display Network)
- To promote their corporate tie-up packages through LinkedIn & Google paid campaigns (B2B)
- Awareness of medical specialities available at their hospitals
- Accessibility of critical medical care for patients in need
Our Approach
Rittal approached Forest to simplify their requirements. Upon meeting their marketing executives, our team got a clearer picture of their needs which helped us to formulate a strategy. We brainstormed a strategic plan to help Rittal meet their needs.
Strategy planned
We provided ourselves with the task of figuring out how to improve overall organic traffic to the website from non-branded keywords. Rittal provides a wide range of products like Blue e+ (Cooling Units), Edge (Data Center), DK PS (IT Enclosure Systems) etc with a range of features. This, in turn, congested their site, while only their brand keywords (Blue e+ & Edge) were ranking. In order to rank their non-branded keywords, we ran a pilot creating separate pages for each of their wide range of products. These pages were specific for one product and also it pushed enough content to target the non-branded keywords.

The approach taken by us helped them to increase their brand awareness two-folds. After one year of implementation of our strategy, Rittal saw a 15-20% increase in their online inquiries.

SRK Infra - The Estates
CAMPAIGN YEAR2019
DURATION6 months
Aim
Fierce online lead-gen campaigns escalates the sale of
premium villa plots for “The Estates” in a short span
The Estates is 35-acre luxury villa project situated at the foot of Nandi Hills. Developed by SRK Infra group in partnership with Jerry Rao Constructions, The Estates is scintillating example of what a life of luxury midst the nature will be. They have developed a space for 120 luxury villa plots and a 100-room luxury hotel that spreads over an area of 35-acres, beautifully overlooking the majestic Nandi Hills in the background. With an already planned floor map and construction going in full swing, The Estates will be a project that will redefine luxury living in Bangalore.
Challenges Faced
As The Estates fell under the luxury living side of the real estate industry, the major challenge that we faced was to find quality & targeted leads that were sure to be converted. The major competitors like Godrej, Prestige group, Runwal etc, all had their presence in the area and were presenting the same living experience as The Estates did. With the plot price starting from 1.2Cr* to 10Cr*, we knew our target audiences were the ultra rich individuals and HNIs who could be interested in this project. As they fell under a very niche category, one of the challenges we faced was to do extensive research to find these individuals based on their taste, preference and spending habits. Our main intention through this aggressive online campaign was to successfully deliver results for The Estates by keeping the acquisition cost/lead under check.
Our Approach
Post a detailed discussion with their team, we got a better understanding of what they were looking in terms of quality results. We decided to execute a well-planned, multi-tiered and multi-platform online lead-gen campaigns, that were sure to fetch the desired results.
