We did it, again.
Shoptimised won Best Digital Software at the Northern Digital Awards 2022 last night, marking our first award win of the year. We are over the moon to receive this recognition for our Incremental Sales software, which we have developed over the last two years.
We were excited to be shortlisted for two awards: Best Low Budget Campaign and Best Digital Tool or Software. To walk away with the Best Digital Software award was a proud moment for the whole team.
Shoptimised was the first SaaS business to introduce the Incremental Sales concept, helping retailers boost their revenue through Google Shopping. Over the last two years, the results have shown the impact of the software, with more than £97 million in incremental revenue generated for our clients between January and December 2021.
We have started the year strongly, growing our headcount to 40 employees and now celebrating our first award of 2022. Winning this award motivates us to continue developing our Incremental Sales strategy and offering growth solutions to ecommerce businesses across the North East, the UK and overseas.
It was amazing to take 10 members of the Shoptimised team to the awards ceremony in Leeds and celebrate the win together. Many thanks to the Northern Digital Awards and Don’t Panic Events for an amazing night, and congratulations to all the winners and runners-up.
To our wonderful team, a huge thank you for your hard work and dedication. We wouldn’t be where we are without you.
We’re excited to see what the future holds for Shoptimised. We are onboarding new ambitious retailers and have plans to expand our current teams further. If you’re looking to work in a fast-growing business, check out our careers page for the latest vacancies.
Time does fly when you’re having fun.
Tomorrow marks four years since the Shoptimised journey began. We’re incredibly proud of the fantastic team we’ve built over this short period of time, and the excellent service we are now able to offer to hundreds of ecommerce businesses across the UK and abroad.
In the last four years, we’ve achieved so much, from doubling our headcount to releasing new technical features for our software. Most importantly, we’ve delivered incredible results for our clients.
A few of our many achievements so far:
- Grown our team to 40 people
- Optimised 53M+ products
- Worked with clients in 17 countries
- Gained 1,350+ active subscribers
- Won 5 industry awards, and became finalists for 4 in 2021
- Gained 1,500+ Google CSS retailers
- Delivered £96M+ in incremental Google Shopping sales in 2021
- Rated 4.8/5 on Trustpilot
- More than doubled our turnover, headcount and client base in the past 12 months
We’ve also spent countless hours on Wordle, eaten a fair amount of cake in the office, cuddled our favourite office pups, also known as the HR bosses, and put the Ibiza Classics playlist on about 1,000 times.
We’re proud of how far we’ve come and to have created jobs in the industry for our local area. This year, we’ve been able to give our employees a pay rise to help mitigate national inflation, promote some of our staff and reward many others.
We’re dedicated to improving our software and service offering, while continuing to be a family-first business that always puts people first.
We’re so excited to see what the future holds. If you’re looking to work in a dynamic and friendly environment where growth is an opportunity for all, take a look at our latest vacancies and join the best team ever.
We won! And what an incredible journey it has been so far for Shoptimised. We are honoured to have won Best Use of Data (PPC) at the UK Search Awards 2021, and are both humbled and excited to be recognised among the best in our industry.
This year, we were honoured to be finalists for two awards: Best Use of Data (PPC) and Best Low Budget Campaign. We were absolutely over the moon to walk away with the Best Use of Data award.
Having developed new advanced features for our product feed optimisation and incremental software over the past 18 months, we are pleased to see our hard work paying off.
This past year alone, we have continued to grow rapidly. We have grown our staff headcount by 500%, from a team of 6 to 32 across our Customer Service, Business Development, Technical and Marketing teams.
Winning this award for our work with Designer Outlet Sales motivates us as a business to continue developing our software and offering growth solutions to ecommerce businesses across the North East, the UK and overseas.
Bringing home the award for Best Use of Data is even more special to us this year, as it was the 10th anniversary of the UK Search Awards. The awards celebrate marketing agencies and individuals for their excellent work with search engine campaigns. We were up against some incredible competition, so we are honoured to have won this year.
The team who travelled down to London for the awards ceremony could not have enjoyed their night more, celebrating the win and the achievement for all of us. We were delighted to attend the first in-person awards ceremony post-lockdown, and to meet our fellow finalists and other familiar faces from the tech and marketing industry.
It was wonderful to celebrate our own win alongside the amazing businesses we have across the country.
Many thanks to We Are Search for the amazing night, and congratulations to all the winners and runners-up.
