The Story
Melbourne Powered came to us mid-way through a complex Shopify migration with a bold goal: recover organic performance and prove that high-ticket e-bikes could be sold at scale online. They had been told by previous experts that e-commerce ads wouldn't work for expensive products, leaving them stuck below a $100k/month ceiling. We stepped in to build a multi-touchpoint engine that turned those assumptions upside down.
The Challenge
High-Ticket Friction
High-Ticket Friction
The customer journey for e-bikes and e-motos is complex, often requiring 10+ touchpoints before a purchase is made.
Agency Disillusionment
Agency Disillusionment
Previous specialists failed to deliver profitable Google Ads, leading to a belief that the brand could only grow through referrals.
Migration Risk

Scaling through a Shopify migration without losing existing organic authority.
Ambitious Targets
Ambitious Targets
A goal to hit consistent $100k revenue months and drive 20,000 monthly users to the site
The Solution
The Multi-Touchpoint Framework
We built a full-funnel strategy to be visible at every stage:
- Top of Funnel: High-authority blog content to capture "Best e-bike" searches and AI Overviews.
- Middle of Funnel: Product comparison pages and "E-ride" specific content to catch researchers.
- Bottom of Funnel: Targeted Shopping Ads and Google Map Pack optimization to drive both online sales and Melbourne showroom visits.


Google Ads "Profitability" Pivot
We ignored the "it won't work" advice and implemented a granular PMAX strategy, separating branded, e-moto, and parts/accessories campaigns to maximize budget efficiency.
Structural SEO Reinforcement
Successfully managed the Shopify migration, rewrote clunky collection content, and built internal links "above the fold" to improve crawlability and user flow.

TESTIMONIALS
What our partners have to say
Caleb and Aidan from Studio Better have been absolutely fantastic to work with. As a small, independent business with both a brick and mortar store and an online shop, we honestly didn’t know where to start with SEO. What really stood out to us was how personable, patient, and genuinely invested they were in helping us understand the process. They’re incredibly organised, with clear systems in place, and they take the time to talk everything through in a way that actually makes sense. We always feel supported and never rushed, and they’re consistently available whenever we have questions. They’ve given us a clear plan forward and are always thinking ahead to what’s next, which gives us a lot of confidence. We truly couldn’t recommend them highly enough.
