In this multi-business-line environment, the company’s primary objective was not simply to “sell more,” but to build a commercial architecture capable of supporting operational scaling. They needed to optimize their e-commerce ROAS to ensure the profitability of their advertising investment and segment their messaging based on each audience’s transactional behavior.

Josimar's digital channel revenue grows by 110%

Josimar, one of the physical supermarket in Argentina, was looking to take a definitive leap forward in the maturity of its digital operations. With a robust physical presence across multiple locations and its own online sales channel built on the VTEX platform, the challenge was not merely to increase order volume. The strategic objective was to build an efficient, highly measurable, and profitable digital channel capable of capturing daily demand for high-turnover categories—from groceries and beverages to fresh produce and meat—and transforming it into organic growth and long-term revenue. To achieve this, it was necessary to professionalize the management of the site and implement an end-to-end strategy that would unify performance, automation and advanced analytics . Known Online supported the company through this transition by designing an implementation aimed at optimizing the return on advertising investment and building loyalty among the brand’s repeat customers.

How a Content Strategy Helps You Build Customer Loyalty

If youre-commerce business is still paying advertising to get a customer who has already bought from you to buy again, your ecosystem is losing profitability. Reducing your content strategy to mere isolated articles means wasting one of the most powerful tools for scaling your business. When content is structured as a transactional framework, it ceases to be a cost center and becomes one of the main drivers of repeat purchases. With advertising inflation constantly driving up the CAC, content ceases to be a marketing tactic and becomes a retention asset. Operating without structured content flows to maximize LTV not only creates operational inefficiencies but also directly undermines the business’s net margin and profitability.

Colloky Case Study: +65% in organic revenue and +376% in SEO/GEO/AEO impressions

Colloky, a retail brand specializing in clothing, footwear, and children’s fashion in Chile, faced a common strategic challenge on mass-market e-commerce platforms. With an extensive, dynamic catalog segmented by complex categories that vary by gender, season, and a child’s developmental stage, the site’s organic visibility was limited by two critical factors: aggressive competition from large general marketplaces and the fragmentation of search engines’ crawl budget due to the large number of active filters for sizes, colors, and styles.

The business objective was not simply to increase overall site traffic. The goal was to build a robust information architecture, streamline indexing processes to enhance the online store’s faceted navigation, and capture highly qualified demand at the top of the sales funnel. To achieve this, Known Online designed a comprehensive SEO/GEO/AEO positioning strategy that combined advanced technical optimization with a continuous editorial structure of high semantic relevance. In this way, we succeeded in transforming the organic traffic channel into a commercial asset in its own right, capable of sustainably fueling and reducing conversion costs across the brand’s entire digital ecosystem.

Customer Retention vs. Acquisition: Why Does Separating These Metrics Undermine Your Digital Profitability?

To discuss whether an e-commerce should invest in acquisition or retention is a misdiagnosis. From a structural perspective and in terms of impact on EBITDA, treating traffic acquisition and the repurchase cycle as independent variables is one of the main causes of operating margin loss. A scalable digital business does not choose between acquisition and retention; it integrates both dynamics. Without acquisition, there is no market volume, and without retention, there is no operating margin. The real challenge is to build an architecture where both strategies work toward a single metric of success: the LTV/CAC ratio.

Animal Care is driving its e-commerce business through direct sales and organic growth

ACWS - Animal Care, a Chilean company specializing in the distribution and marketing of pharmaceutical and nutritional products and critical supplies for animal welfare, was facing operational inefficiencies in its business architecture. Despite having a robust platform such as VTEX for its B2B and B2C, the digital channel operated in a fragmented manner: it functioned as a catalog for browsing and discovery, meaning that closing transactions depended critically on the manual and direct intervention of the offline sales team. By 2025, the business challenge was not about “gaining visibility,” but rather about solving an invisible margin problem: the high cost of acquisition and management (man-hours) required to process orders—a burden that the digital ecosystem needed to absorb natively.

Known Online took on comprehensive management of the digital marketing channel with a strategy focused on measurable results. The focus was on equipping the e-commerce with operational autonomy, improve lead generation, accelerate conversion, and strengthen its organic presence to ensure sustainable growth throughout the year.
