Case Studies

GRNS

GRNS, Australia’s leading daily greens supplement brand, partnered with Searchflex after experiencing declining search efficiency despite continued investment in both SEO and Google Ads. While the brand had established strong product-market fit, healthy customer retention, and growing demand for its flagship greens powder, underlying issues within the search ecosystem were preventing the business from realising its full growth potential. Following a Search Leak Audit, Searchflex identified significant revenue leakage across attribution, AI visibility, organic search, and paid media. Within six months, the engagement recovered over 6 figures in lost revenue while creating a more efficient and scalable search ecosystem.

The Challenge:

GRNS had built one of Australia’s most recognised greens supplement brands, but their search performance was being limited by a series of structural issues.

Attribution inconsistencies made it difficult to accurately understand where sales were coming from, creating uncertainty around marketing performance and investment decisions.

Organic search visibility was also being weakened by keyword cannibalisation, with multiple pages competing for the same commercial terms and diluting ranking potential across important categories.

At the same time, paid search spend was being allocated inefficiently. Budget was concentrated on branded terms that organic search should have been capturing naturally, while high-intent non-branded opportunities remained underfunded. This created unnecessary acquisition costs.

As search behaviour continued evolving, another issue emerged. GRNS had very little visibility within AI-generated search experiences despite operating in a category increasingly influenced by AI-assisted discovery.

The brand was missing opportunities to appear in conversational search results and recommendation engines for high-value supplement-related queries.

Our Approach:

Searchflex began with a comprehensive Search Leak Audit to quantify exactly where revenue was being lost throughout the search journey. This process uncovered attribution blind spots, cannibalisation issues, inefficient budget allocation, and missed visibility opportunities that could be directly linked to lost revenue.

Once the leakage points were identified, we rebuilt the attribution framework across Google Ads and GA4 to ensure reporting accuracy and establish a reliable foundation for decision-making.

With clean data in place, we restructured the paid search account, shifting investment away from areas where spend was being wasted and towards high-intent acquisition opportunities capable of driving incremental growth.

Alongside the paid media improvements, we addressed keyword cannibalisation across the site by consolidating competing pages, refining internal linking structures, and strengthening authority signals around key commercial landing pages. This allowed organic visibility to consolidate around the pages best positioned to rank and convert.

To support future growth, Searchflex also implemented a targeted digital PR and authority-building strategy designed to improve both traditional search performance and visibility within emerging AI-generated search experiences. This helped strengthen trust signals around the brand while increasing its presence across important category conversations.

PHASE 01
Search Leak Audit & Revenue Analysis

Conducted a comprehensive Search Leak Audit to identify and quantify revenue leakage across attribution, organic search, paid media, and AI visibility.

PHASE 02
Attribution & Paid Search Optimisation

Rebuilt the attribution framework across Google Ads and GA4, then restructured the paid search account to redirect investment towards high-intent acquisition opportunities.

PHASE 03
Organic Search Consolidation

Addressed keyword cannibalisation by consolidating competing pages, refining internal linking structures, and strengthening authority signals around priority commercial landing pages.

PHASE 04
Digital PR & AI Search Visibility

Implemented a targeted digital PR and authority-building strategy to strengthen trust signals and improve GRNS's visibility across traditional search and emerging AI-generated search experiences.

Final Results:

Within six months, GRNS exceeded the original revenue recovery target by a substantial margin.

The Search Leak Audit initially identified approximately $6,000 in recoverable monthly revenue leakage across the search ecosystem. By systematically addressing the issues uncovered during the audit, Searchflex helped recover more than $100,000 in additional revenue within the agreed timeframe.

Google Ads performance improved significantly following the attribution clean-up and account restructure, with budget being redirected towards more profitable acquisition opportunities.

At the same time, organic search performance strengthened as cannibalisation issues were removed and authority became concentrated around priority pages.

Perhaps most importantly, GRNS gained complete clarity over how paid and organic search were contributing to business performance. Decisions could now be made using accurate data rather than assumptions, creating a far more efficient growth engine moving forward.

The combined impact of improved attribution, stronger organic visibility, more efficient paid acquisition, and increased AI search presence has given GRNS a search infrastructure built for long-term scale rather than short-term fixes.

Searchflex continues to support the brand as it expands its search visibility and strengthens its position within one of the most competitive categories in ecommerce.

Common questions about this project

What was causing revenue leakage for GRNS?

GRNS was experiencing leakage across several parts of its search ecosystem, including attribution inconsistencies, organic keyword cannibalisation, inefficient paid media allocation, and limited visibility within AI-generated search experiences.

Why was attribution important for the GRNS engagement?

Inconsistent attribution made it difficult for GRNS to understand where sales were coming from and created uncertainty around marketing performance and investment decisions. Searchflex rebuilt the attribution framework across Google Ads and GA4 to provide a more reliable basis for decision-making.

How did Searchflex improve GRNS’s Google Ads efficiency?

Searchflex restructured the paid search account and shifted investment away from areas where spend was being wasted towards high-intent acquisition opportunities. Following the attribution clean-up and account restructure, GRNS saw a 36% increase in ROAS and Google Ads efficiency.

How did Searchflex address keyword cannibalisation?

Competing pages were consolidated, internal linking structures were refined, and authority signals were strengthened around key commercial landing pages. This helped concentrate organic visibility around the pages best positioned to rank and convert.

How much revenue did GRNS recover?

The initial Search Leak Audit identified approximately $6,000 in recoverable monthly revenue leakage. By addressing the issues identified, Searchflex helped GRNS recover more than $100,000 in additional revenue within six months, exceeding the original target.

Searchflex implemented a targeted digital PR and authority-building strategy designed to improve both traditional search performance and visibility within emerging AI-generated search experiences.
