Rockingham CPAP
2023 – Present
Rockingham CPAP, a specialist sleep-equipment retailer, partnered with Pathfinder to grow beyond its local customer base and compete against larger national brands. By implementing a targeted digital advertising strategy across search platforms, Pathfinder helped the business expand its reach, strengthen brand awareness, and achieve rapid revenue growth.
Breaking Out of a Small Local Market
Rockingham CPAP was operating in a highly niche and competitive market, and their business was struggling to expand beyond its local customer base. The CPAP industry, while focused on a specific audience, faces stiff competition from larger, well-established brands that dominate both the physical and online spaces. Rockingham CPAP, being a smaller and relatively newer player, was finding it difficult to compete with the substantial marketing budgets and brand recognition of these larger competitors. The challenge was further compounded by the limited number of customers actively searching for CPAP solutions, meaning the business had to work harder to stand out in such a narrow market.
Given the size of the CPAP market and the established competition, Rockingham CPAP’s goal was to grow its customer base, increase brand awareness, and ultimately improve revenue. The crowded market made this challenging, as most potential customers were unaware of their brand, and those who were, often opted for more well-known options. To overcome these obstacles, we needed to craft a strategy that not only highlighted Rockingham CPAP’s unique offerings but also placed them in front of the right audience at the right time. Market research and strategic advertising were key to making this possible.
A Data-Driven Search Advertising Strategy
In March 2023, we launched a comprehensive marketing campaign designed to address Rockingham CPAP’s unique challenges. We employed a multi-channel approach, focusing on Google and Facebook ads. These platforms were chosen because of their extensive reach and ability to target very specific audience segments. Our market research indicated that many potential customers for CPAP solutions begin their journey online, often through Google searches or social media platforms where they seek information on sleep apnea treatments.
The first step was to refine the messaging used in these campaigns, ensuring that the benefits of CPAP therapy were clearly communicated in a way that resonated with the target audience. For example, we emphasized how Rockingham CPAP’s products could improve sleep quality and overall health, making the messaging highly relevant to those suffering from sleep apnea. Our Facebook ads were particularly effective in creating awareness, while Google Ads drove conversions by capturing high-intent searches.
Throughout the campaign, we faced the challenge of optimizing bids and targeting to ensure we stayed competitive against larger, more established brands. However, our precise targeting and constant optimization allowed us to drive up to 3,500% Return on Ad Spend (ROAS), demonstrating the value of a well-executed strategy in a niche market. By the end of the campaign, Rockingham CPAP’s revenue had grown exponentially, and they had significantly expanded their customer base.
In-house marketing wasn’t enough, so we partnered with Pathfinder.
They delivered immediate results: booming online sales, increased in-store traffic, and successful new brand launches. Their expertise skyrocketed our ROI, making them a true partner in our growth. We highly recommend them!
From Local Retailer to Rapid Revenue Growth
The results of our partnership with Rockingham CPAP speak volumes about the power of a well-executed digital marketing strategy in a niche market. When we first started working together, their monthly revenue was $10,000, which, at the time, represented their peak performance. Through our carefully designed and executed Google and Facebook ad campaigns, we were able to increase their revenue to $230,000 in their best month-a remarkable 2,200% growth over a relatively short period.
This growth wasn’t just about the increased revenue; it also marked a significant increase in brand visibility and customer loyalty. Rockingham CPAP went from being a local supplier with a small, loyal customer base to a recognized player in the CPAP industry within their region. Our data-driven approach ensured that every dollar spent on ads was carefully allocated to maximize returns, and the 3,500% ROAS we achieved is a testament to the campaign’s effectiveness.
Looking ahead, Rockingham CPAP now has the foundation to continue scaling its operations, both in terms of revenue and customer base. By investing in digital marketing, they’ve positioned themselves for long-term growth and success in a competitive industry. Their story shows that with the right strategy and execution, even small businesses in niche markets can achieve extraordinary results.

We struggled to get consistent leads online, and past marketing agencies just didn’t deliver. So we decided to work with Pathfinder Marketing, a leading Perth-based SEO agency. From the start, Pathfinder exceeded our expectations. Thanks to their expertise, our organic traffic and leads are now the highest they’ve ever been. For any business in Australia looking for SEO services, we couldn’t recommend Pathfinder more highly!

Building and launching a new startup is complicated enough, let alone learning how to effectively run paid search & social. After wasting thousands of dollars on the platforms trying to do it ourselves, the Pathfinder team sorted out our digital advertising and Google Ads and we’re seeing great results. They are everything you could want in a key business partner. Quick, responsive, and most importantly experts in making each click-dollar go further. I’ve recommend then to several other friends who have also seen impressive results. In the vast ocean of mediocre marketing agencies, they are the island of excellence.

Dave from Pathfinder was incredible in helping us design a purpose built HubSpot CRM followed by the implementation. Dave’s knowledge and expertise in understanding our client’s journey and ensuring the CRM catered to this was exceptional. Nothing was ever too much, and Dave was always there to support any tweaks or changes to our workflows. I highly recommend Dave and Pathfinder if you are considering customizing and implementing a new CRM.
