Snapshot

Lagavi is a tableware brand, offering curated dinnerware, drinkware, and serveware from global designers and artisan makers, positioned around “turn everyday into an occasion.” Lagavi came to Growleads as a B2C retail brand, selling to individual buyers for home use and gifting. Growleads was brought on to build a second growth lane on top of that: B2B hospitality demand from restaurants, hotels, cafes, and F&B businesses buying tableware at scale.

What the brief was

Build a second growth lane on top of the B2C retail account: B2B hospitality demand from restaurants, hotels, cafes, and F&B businesses buying tableware at scale.

The challenge

A retail account asked to find B2B buyers

At onboarding, the account was built entirely around B2C retail demand. Reaching hospitality buyers meant solving three structural problems it had never faced.

01

Retail intent dominated the keyword space

Most tableware search volume comes from individual B2C shoppers. B2B hospitality buyers search in a completely different vocabulary: “restaurant crockery supplier”, “hospitality dinnerware”, “cafe crockery wholesale”. None of it was captured by the account as it stood.

02

A long, multi-stakeholder buying cycle

Hospitality procurement runs 60 to 180 days and involves multiple decision-makers: head chef, procurement, F&B director. A single Google Ads click was never going to convert the way a retail purchase does.

03

Smart Bidding had no B2B signal to learn from

The bidding algorithm was tuned entirely on historical retail purchase conversions. It had never seen a B2B lead, so it had nothing to optimize toward.

Budget was misallocated too

Where the spend went before the rebuild.

South India geo-expansion
54% of total spend

Converting at a fraction of the core campaign’s efficiency: 0.94% CTR against 18.7%.

At account start
₹70,040 a month for 51 leads

Almost all of it B2C, with no B2B pipeline to speak of.

Core campaign CTR

18.7%, against 0.94% on the geo-expansion campaign absorbing more than half the budget.

The strategy

Build the B2B lane beside the retail account, not inside it

1

Building dedicated hospitality campaigns from scratch

The account had zero B2B conversion history. New campaigns were built around hospitality-procurement vocabulary, each split by segment so it could be targeted and measured on its own terms instead of competing with retail traffic.

2

Rewriting the offer for a bulk buyer, not a shopper

Retail selling points were replaced with artisan partnerships and custom-design capability. Order minimums were stated upfront, and the landing page’s primary call to action became “request a sample kit”.

3

Excluding retail-shopper signals from the new campaigns

Audience and negative-keyword lists kept individual retail buyers out of the hospitality campaigns, so Smart Bidding learned from genuine B2B procurement behaviour instead of a blended signal.

4

Building a seasonal budget calendar

Wedding season and festive gifting, July to November, consistently outperform the post-festive lull in January and February, so budget was front-loaded into the high-demand window rather than spread evenly.

5

Protecting brand search separately

A dedicated brand campaign defends high-intent branded search traffic. It converts at a materially higher CTR than any other campaign, and needs a much smaller, steadier budget to sustain.

Comparison

Before → After

Before After
01 One account, competing against itself for retail and B2B clicks in the same auctions Six dedicated hospitality-segment campaigns running alongside the core B2C account
02 Every historical conversion was a retail purchase, nothing for Smart Bidding to learn B2B from 15.7% CTR across the account, against a 5–7% category baseline for hospitality search
03 No dedicated hospitality campaigns; B2B buyers had no path to convert 1,337 leads generated across 6 months (Feb–Jul 2026), trending up month over month
04 51 leads a month at account start (Jan 2025), almost entirely B2C July 2026 alone: 326 leads, the strongest month yet
The shift

A retail account that had never seen a B2B lead now runs a hospitality lane beside it, without competing for the same clicks.
