WHO WE WORK WITH

The home and garden brands we grow

A nursery shipping live plants, a garden supplies retailer and a homewares brand all sell to people improving where they live. Their seasons, shipping limits and margins differ, so we start with your catalogue and calendar before we plan any campaigns.

WHICH ONE ARE YOU?

Online nurseries

Live plants, sold in the right season

Plants sell when it is time to plant, and some can't ship to every state. We plan campaigns by planting season and region, and keep Shopping ads limited to stock that can reach the buyer.

Garden supplies and tools

Big catalogues that move with the weather

From potting mix to irrigation, demand shifts with rain and heat. We structure Shopping campaigns by category and season, so budget follows what gardeners are buying right now.

Homewares and decor

Products people browse before they buy

Homewares buyers save, compare and come back. We use Meta, visual creative and email to stay in front of them until they are ready to order.

Outdoor living

Bigger tickets, longer decisions

Outdoor furniture, sheds and planters cost more and ship heavier. We build campaigns that answer delivery and size questions upfront and follow up with buyers who are still deciding.

PROBLEMS AND FIXES

The problems we see. The Sneaky fixes we deliver.

Home and garden brands deal with weather, seasons and stock that won't wait. These are the problems they bring to us most, and how we fix them.

Sound familiar? Let's talk

Sales drop off a cliff after spring

THE FIX

We plan a year-round calendar with autumn planting, winter projects, indoor lines and gifting, so the business has something to sell and promote in every season.

Ads keep running on products that are out of stock

THE FIX

We connect stock levels to your feeds and campaigns, so out-of-stock and off-season products drop out of ads automatically and budget moves to what you can ship.

Shipping costs eat the margin on bulky items

THE FIX

We report margin after shipping by product, then focus ads on the lines and regions that stay profitable and use bundles to lift order size on heavy items.

We can't ship plants to every state

THE FIX

We set up feeds and campaign targeting by state, so ads for restricted products only show where you can legally send them, and nobody orders what can't be delivered.

Our how-to content gets read but doesn't sell

THE FIX

We link guides and planting calendars to the products they mention, then use email to turn readers into buyers when the season comes around.

A wet weekend wipes out a whole campaign

THE FIX

We watch the weather and adjust budgets and messaging quickly, shifting to indoor plants, online browsing and planning content when gardeners are stuck inside.

How we work with home and garden

How we grow a home and garden brand

  1. 01

    Map the seasons

    We build a calendar of planting windows, weather patterns, sale events and stock arrivals for your range, so campaigns are planned months ahead.

  2. 02

    Tidy the catalogue

    Feeds are set up with seasons, regions, sizes and shipping rules, so Shopping and Meta catalogue ads only show products that can be bought and delivered.

  3. 03

    Make creative that inspires

    Our team makes video, statics and UGC showing products in real homes and gardens, with clear answers on size, care and delivery.

  4. 04

    Scale with the season

    Budgets rise ahead of peak weeks and ease off when demand drops, while email keeps past customers coming back for the next season.

CHANNELS

Channels that grow home and garden sales

All services

Google Shopping

Gardeners search for products by name and size. As your Google Ads agency, we run Shopping and Performance Max split by season and stock.

Meta ads

Facebook and Instagram are where people get ideas for their homes and gardens. Our Meta ads agency work turns that inspiration into orders.

Email marketing

Seasons come back every year, and so should your customers. Our email marketing agency team builds planting reminders and seasonal campaigns.

Ecommerce SEO

How-to and category searches peak with the seasons. Our ecommerce SEO agency work builds pages that rank before demand arrives.

Video ads

Showing a product in a real garden answers more questions than a photo. Our video ads agency team makes short clips for social and YouTube.

FAQ

Home and garden marketing questions

When should a garden brand start its spring campaigns?

Earlier than most expect. We start building audiences and testing creative in late winter, so campaigns are already performing when the first warm weekends bring buyers out.

Can you advertise live plants to some states and not others?

Yes. Several states restrict which plants can be sent in. We set up feed rules and location targeting so ads only show where you can deliver.

How do you advertise heavy or bulky products profitably?

We report margin after shipping for each product and region, then put budget behind the items and areas that still pay. Bundles and free shipping thresholds help lift order value.

Do you work with brands that also sell through Bunnings or garden centres?

Yes. Many of our home and garden clients sell in stores as well as online. We plan campaigns that build the brand everywhere it is sold, not just on your website.

How do you keep sales going through the off season?

We plan quieter months around indoor plants, maintenance, gifting and planning content, and use email to keep past customers engaged until the next peak.

Can blog content and planting guides really drive sales?

They can when they link to the right products and are timed for the season. We plan content around what people search before they buy, then connect it to email and remarketing.

A note from our founders
April and Brendan Ford, co-founders
April & Brendan FordCo-founders

Marketing should act like part of your commercial engine. Not a cost centre.

We started Sneaky because we were tired of watching great brands miss their potential. Campaigns that didn't convert. Data nobody tracked. Junior advice, and service that left people chasing.

So we built the agency we would want to hire. A senior team on every account, no hand-offs, and every decision measured against profit, not platforms. We'll speak your language.
