WHO WE WORK WITH

The suppliers we grow

A building products manufacturer and an electrical wholesaler sell to different buyers in different ways. We start with your trade customers, your sales team and how orders actually come in, then build the plan around them.

WHICH ONE ARE YOU?

Building products

Specified by builders, ordered by trades

Windows, doors, cladding and fixtures are chosen by builders, architects and homeowners together. We reach each of them, so your products get specified and quote requests reach your team.

See moreTalk to us about it
Wholesalers and distributors

Trade accounts that keep ordering

For wholesalers, a new trade account is worth years of orders. We run campaigns that drive account sign-ups, then use email to grow repeat orders and awareness of your full range.

Manufacturers

Demand for products sold through resellers

When you sell through stockists and distributors, we build demand with trades and end users, then point them to your resellers so the whole channel benefits.

Tools and equipment

Big-ticket sales, supported by your reps

Machinery, tools and equipment involve longer decisions. We bring in qualified rep enquiries and demo requests, and keep buyers engaged until they are ready to order.

PROBLEMS AND FIXES

The problems we see. The Sneaky fixes we deliver.

Suppliers and sales managers tell us where growth has stalled. These are the problems we fix most often.

Sound familiar? Let's talk

Our reps carry the whole pipeline

THE FIX

We add a steady flow of trade account sign-ups and quote requests from search and social, so reps spend more time closing and less time prospecting.

Quote requests come in with no detail

THE FIX

We rebuild quote forms to ask for product, quantity, project and timing, so your team can price quickly and focus on the jobs worth winning.

Trades don't know our full range

THE FIX

We use email, retargeting and short product video to show existing customers what else you stock, growing orders from accounts you already have.

Our website reads like an old catalogue

THE FIX

We rebuild the pages ads point to with clear ranges, specs and a simple trade account sign-up, so visits turn into enquiries.

We can't tell which ads turn into orders

THE FIX

We connect forms, calls and account sign-ups to your CRM, so you see which campaigns bring in trade accounts that actually order.

Generic B2B marketing doesn't speak to tradies

THE FIX

Trades want specs, stock and delivery, not buzzwords. We write ads and pages in plain language that tell them what they need to know to order.

How we grow trade supplies brands

How we grow a trade supplier

  1. 01

    Know your trade customer

    We start with your best accounts, margins by range and how orders come in, so every target is set on trade accounts and revenue, not clicks.

  2. 02

    Track leads to orders

    Forms, calls and account sign-ups connect to your CRM, so each channel is judged on the orders it brings in.

  3. 03

    Show the product properly

    Product video, install content and clear specs give trades and builders the confidence to choose you over the supplier they always use.

  4. 04

    Grow every account

    Email and retargeting lift repeat orders, while budget moves to the ranges, regions and audiences that bring in profitable accounts.

CHANNELS

Channels that win trade accounts

All services

Google Ads

Trades and buyers search by product, brand and location when they need stock. As your Google Ads agency, we run campaigns built around quote requests and account sign-ups.

SEO

Range and product pages that rank keep bringing in trade buyers. Our SEO agency work builds that visibility for the products you most want to sell.

Meta ads

Tradies scroll on breaks and after work. Our Meta advertising agency team reaches them with product video and trade offers by region.

B2B lead generation

Some ranges sell through reps and quotes, not a cart. Our B2B lead generation agency work builds the offers and forms that bring in qualified enquiries.

Email marketing

Existing accounts are your best source of growth. Our email marketing agency team builds range updates and reorder reminders that lift repeat orders.

Video ads

Seeing a product installed sells it to a tradie. Our video ads agency work turns installs and demos into ads for every platform.

FAQ

Trade supplier marketing questions

Do you work with suppliers that only sell to trade customers?

Yes. We run campaigns aimed at builders, tradies and business buyers, with trade account sign-ups and quote requests as the goal rather than retail sales.

Can you market to trades and homeowners at the same time?

Yes, as separate campaigns. Homeowners need inspiration and trades need specs and availability, so each audience gets its own ads, pages and tracking.

How does your marketing support our sales reps?

We send reps qualified enquiries with the detail they need, and run campaigns by region so each rep's territory gets steady demand.

Can you track orders that come through phone calls and reps?

Yes. We use call tracking and connect your CRM, so enquiries that become orders by phone, email or rep visit are still credited to the right campaign.

Should a trade supplier start with SEO or Google Ads?

Usually Google Ads first, for quote requests on your highest-margin ranges, with SEO building alongside it so range and product pages rank over time.

What do trade suppliers usually spend on advertising?

Trade suppliers we work with typically invest $10K or more a month in media. We set the split from your margins, account value and how many new accounts your team can handle.

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.
