Your Store Gets Traffic. It Doesn't Get Orders.
Sessions Rise, Revenue Flatlines
Campaigns fill the top of the funnel while orders stay flat. Nobody can point to which channel produced revenue versus which one produced clicks. The reporting answers the wrong question, so budget keeps flowing to whatever looks busy.
The Cart Ignores How B2B Buys
Your buyer needs contract pricing, account-level catalogs, a quote request, and a procurement approval before anything ships. A checkout designed for impulse purchases blocks all four. Buyers abandon and call your sales team instead, and leadership concludes ecommerce does not work for your business.
Marketing and Systems Are Disconnected
Orders live in one platform, opportunities in the CRM, and fulfillment in the ERP. Without clean handoffs between them, attribution breaks and repeat-order behavior stays invisible. You end up guessing at customer lifetime value rather than measuring it.
A Revenue Audit First, Then Tactics
Revenue Audit
We map every channel to actual orders and quote requests, then trace where the funnel leaks. Deliverables include a channel-to-revenue map, a tracking and analytics audit across GA4 and your CRM, and a prioritized list of the drop-off points costing you the most.
90-Day Revenue Roadmap
You approve the plan before anyone touches a campaign. The roadmap names each initiative, the owner, the expected revenue lever, and the sequence, so paid media, SEO, product content, and checkout work land in the right order instead of all at once.
Build and Launch
We execute the roadmap across storefront templates, paid media, buyer-experience fixes, and lifecycle email, in the sequence the audit set. Every change ships with a measurement plan attached.
Measure Against Revenue
Monthly reporting shows orders, average order value, repeat purchase behavior, and pipeline sourced by channel. Quarterly, we reset the roadmap based on what produced revenue and retire the tactics that did not earn their budget.

Why Companies Pick O8 for Ecommerce Growth
15+ Years, Not 15 Months
Fifteen years of programs means fewer blind experiments on your budget and faster judgment calls on what to build first. We have run digital growth programs for manufacturers, distributors, healthcare organizations, universities, and technology companies.
4.8/5 on Clutch
Our client reviews are verifiable on Clutch, Google, and Facebook rather than self-reported. Clients cite communication, project management discipline, and the feeling that O8 works as an extension of their internal team.
Named Client Work You Can Check
Past and current work includes MedSource Labs, HelpSystems (now Fortra), Ecumen, Baker University, the University of Minnesota, Vector Magnetics, and Consulting Radiologists. We can walk you through the scope of those engagements on a call.
Built For B2B Complexity
Contract pricing, account-level catalogs, quote requests, and procurement approvals — plus buying committees and long approval cycles — are the default in B2B, not the exception. We design ecommerce programs around those realities instead of retrofitting a direct-to-consumer playbook.
No Handoffs Between Vendors
Because strategy, UX, development, and marketing sit on the same team, a checkout fix does not wait in another vendor's queue. That removes the handoff gaps that stall most multi-agency ecommerce programs.
Revenue Accountability
We report on orders, pipeline, and repeat purchase behavior rather than impressions and conversion rate alone. If a channel cannot be tied to revenue, we say so and recommend cutting it.

It owns the marketing, technology, and revenue strategy behind your online sales channel. That covers search and paid media, product and category content, merchandising, checkout and quote-request experience, lifecycle email, and the analytics that connect all of it to orders. At O8, the work starts with a revenue audit so the tactics are chosen against a diagnosis rather than a template.
DTC assumes one decision maker, an impulse-friendly cart, and a purchase that closes in a session. B2B assumes a buying committee, contract or tiered pricing, account-level catalogs, and a procurement approval that happens off-site. That changes the conversion event, the content required, and the systems your store has to talk to, including CRM and ERP.
We scope pricing after an operating-model assessment, not before. Cost depends on your platform, catalog complexity, how many channels you run, and how much systems work sits between your cart and your CRM or ERP. We will tell you what the assessment covers and what you receive from it before you commit to anything.
Yes. We work across common platforms and headless setups, and our development team can extend the store rather than push a replatform you do not need. If the audit shows the platform genuinely blocks revenue, we will show you the evidence instead of leading with a rebuild recommendation.
That is the most common setup. O8 typically fills the senior strategy, paid media, UX, and development gaps while your team owns brand, product, and customer relationships. Clients describe us as an extension of their marketing team rather than an outside vendor.
What Is an Ecommerce Digital Marketing Agency for B2B Companies?
An ecommerce digital marketing agency for B2B companies manages the marketing, technology, and revenue strategy behind online sales when the buyer is a committee rather than a shopper. The scope covers demand generation, organic and paid search, product and category content, and merchandising. It also covers the checkout and quote-request experience, plus the systems work that connects a cart to a CRM record and an ERP order. The output is not traffic. It is qualified buyers, approved orders, and revenue you can trace back to a specific channel.
Most ecommerce agencies optimize for direct-to-consumer patterns: one decision maker, an impulse purchase, a cart abandonment email. B2B breaks those patterns. Contract pricing, account-level catalogs, reorder behavior, distributor rules, and procurement approvals all decide whether a transaction closes. O8 has spent 15+ years building growth programs for organizations with exactly that kind of complexity — the named engagements are listed in the "Why O8" section above, and you can see the scope of that work in our case studies.
When Does a B2B Company Need an Ecommerce Digital Marketing Agency?
A B2B company needs an ecommerce digital marketing agency when internal teams cannot connect marketing spend to closed revenue, or when the store was built for browsing rather than buying. Those signals usually show up together with a sales team fielding phone orders that should have closed online, and no clear answer to which campaign produced which order.
Quieter signals matter too: a replatform that shipped without a marketing plan attached, a catalog that has outgrown its category structure, or a merger that left you running two stores with two analytics setups. In each case, more ad spend will not fix it. What does fix it is a diagnosis of where buyers stop and why, followed by targeted work across content, experience, and systems. Our Growth & Marketing Services team handles the demand side of that, while our development and integration work handles the plumbing underneath it.
What Does a Good Ecommerce Digital Marketing Agency Engagement Look Like?
A good ecommerce digital marketing agency engagement starts with a revenue audit rather than a tactics list, identifying where buyers drop out and what each channel produces. From there, the agency delivers a roadmap you approve before any campaign launches, with each initiative tied to a revenue lever and a named owner.
Each phase has its own deliverables. What matters underneath them is sequencing: the audit decides which problem gets solved first, so the storefront, the media accounts, and the lifecycle program are not all rebuilt at once while the team argues about which change moved the number. Buyer-experience work is tested against real behavior rather than opinion, so the checkout and quote paths change for reasons you can see in the data.
B2B Ecommerce vs. DTC Ecommerce Marketing
| Decision | DTC approach | B2B approach |
|---|---|---|
| Buyer | One person, one session | Buying committee across weeks or months |
| Conversion event | Completed checkout | Quote request, account order, or reorder |
| Pricing | Published, uniform | Contract, tiered, or account-specific |
| Content | Lifestyle and social proof | Spec sheets, compliance docs, comparison data |
| Systems | Cart plus email platform | Cart plus CRM plus ERP plus the handoff from quote request to invoiced order |
| Measurement | Conversion rate and ROAS | Pipeline sourced, closed revenue, account lifetime value |
How Much Does an Ecommerce Digital Marketing Agency Cost?
We scope pricing after an operating-model assessment rather than quoting a package up front. The assessment looks at your platform, catalog size and complexity, how many acquisition channels you run, how much integration work sits between your store and your CRM or ERP, and whether your internal team covers content, design, or media buying already. Two companies with identical revenue can require entirely different scopes.
Before you commit to anything, we tell you what the assessment covers, what documents you receive from it, and what the recommended scope would include. That way the number you eventually see is attached to named deliverables instead of a vague retainer.
Where Ecommerce Marketing Meets Your Tech Stack
Run campaigns on broken systems and you pay for the same problem twice. If your cart cannot pass account context to the CRM, or your quote requests land in an inbox instead of a pipeline stage, no amount of campaign optimization fixes it. We treat integration work as part of the growth plan, which is why our revenue operations (RevOps) consulting runs in parallel with media and content work on the same engagement — see RevOps Consulting. Your monthly numbers arrive tied to orders because the CRM, campaign, and analytics data stay connected. Nobody is rebuilding a spreadsheet by hand. Our internal data-integration team keeps those sources in sync. For a broader read on where ecommerce and retail brands are gaining or losing ground, our O8 Intelligence for ecommerce and retail tracks the same category benchmarks we use to scope engagements like this.
The same logic — fix the plumbing before you spend on campaigns — applies to repeatable operational work. Product data enrichment, feed hygiene, review moderation, and first-line buyer questions consume hours that senior people should not be spending, so we build workflows that absorb them. Automation here is a cost and speed decision, not a headline feature.
The Storefront Itself Is Part of the Program
Marketing cannot outrun a store that hides pricing logic, buries specs, or forces a procurement contact through a consumer checkout. When the audit points to structural problems, we rebuild the templates, navigation, and conversion paths that the catalog has outgrown. Design decisions get made against the behavior data we already collected, not a moodboard.
Channels We Run
- Ecommerce SEO: category architecture, product detail page optimization, and technical fixes tied to profitable keyword sets
- Paid media: search, shopping, and paid social accounts restructured around margin and account value
- Product listing optimization: SEO-friendly copy, complete attribute data, and imagery standards across the catalog
- Retargeting: sequenced campaigns for buyers who researched, requested a quote, or abandoned mid-approval
- Lifecycle email: onboarding, reorder prompts, cross-sell, and win-back flows segmented by account behavior
- Checkout and quote-path optimization: heatmap and session analysis feeding prioritized tests on the paths that produce orders
Who We Work With
O8 works with manufacturers, distributors, healthcare organizations, universities, and technology companies. In practice that means catalogs governed by contract pricing, buyers who need spec and compliance documentation before they can approve anything, and stores that have to stay in sync with a CRM and an ERP. The named engagements listed in the "Why O8" section are the ones we can walk you through in detail, including scope, team, and what we were asked to fix — browse more of them in our portfolio.
