02Growth

E-commerce Growth

E-commerce growth is the practice of compounding storefront revenue across marketplaces and D2C through listings, ads, retention and lifetime value.

The problem

Sellers treat Amazon, Flipkart and their own site as separate islands — inconsistent listings, wasted ad spend, and no retention to lift lifetime value.

What we do

  1. 1Optimise listings, A+ content and catalogue health
  2. 2Run Sponsored Products / Brands and marketplace ads
  3. 3Build retention flows to raise repeat-purchase rate
  4. 4Unify reporting across every channel
Deliverables
  • Listing & catalogue optimisation
  • Marketplace ad management
  • Retention & LTV program
  • Unified channel dashboard

AI Search Optimisation (GEO/AEO)

Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) is the practice of structuring content so AI engines like ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity cite your brand as the answer.

The problem

Buyers increasingly ask AI assistants before they ever reach Google. If your brand isn't structured to be quoted, you're invisible at the exact moment of intent.

What we do

  1. 1Audit current visibility across five AI engines
  2. 2Add answer capsules, schema and entity coverage
  3. 3Ship llms.txt, FAQ structure and crawler access
  4. 4Monitor AI share of voice and expand coverage

04Social

Social Media Management

Social media management is always-on ownership of a brand or person's presence — strategy, calendar, production and community.

The problem

Posting randomly with no strategy burns hours and builds nothing. Founders and brands go quiet, then wonder why social drives no business.

What we do

  1. 1Set a positioning and content pillars strategy
  2. 2Run a reels-first monthly content calendar
  3. 3Produce posts, reels and stories on cadence
  4. 4Manage community, DMs and engagement
Deliverables

  • Produced posts & reels
  • Community management

05Creative

Content & Creative

Content and creative is the production of scroll-stopping assets — reels, posts, ad creative and copy — at the pace performance demands.

The problem

Creative is the biggest lever in modern marketing, yet most brands ship one ad a month. Without volume, performance plateaus.

What we do

  1. 1Build a hook and concept library from data
  2. 2Produce reels, statics and UGC-style ads weekly
  3. 3Write copy for ads, landing pages and email
  4. 4Feed winners back into the testing engine
Deliverables
  • Creative concept library
  • Weekly ad & content batches
  • Ad & landing-page copy
  • Performance creative reporting

06Search

SEO

SEO is the practice of earning organic search rankings through technical health, on-page relevance and authoritative content.

The problem

Brands chase paid traffic while their organic foundation leaks — slow pages, thin content and no topical authority compounding over time.

What we do

  1. 1Fix technical health, speed and indexation
  2. 2Map topical clusters to buyer intent
  3. 3Produce authoritative, entity-rich content
  4. 4Build internal links and earn references
Deliverables
  • Technical SEO audit & fixes
  • Keyword & topic strategy
  • Content production calendar
  • Monthly ranking & traffic report
Illustrative target · sample, not a real client
+214%organic traffic

07Retention

WhatsApp & Email Marketing

WhatsApp and email marketing is lifecycle communication that converts one-time buyers into repeat revenue through owned channels.

The problem

Brands acquire customers expensively, then never speak to them again. The cheapest revenue — repeat purchases — is left on the table.

What we do

  1. 1Build welcome, abandoned-cart and win-back flows
  2. 2Run segmented WhatsApp and email broadcasts
  3. 3Grow opt-in lists with compliant capture
  4. 4Test offers, timing and creative
Deliverables
  • Lifecycle flow setup
  • Broadcast calendar
  • List growth & segmentation
  • Owned-revenue dashboard

Lifecycle flows turned a leaky funnel into a compounding retention machine.

08Conversion

Web Design & CRO

Web design and CRO is building fast, conversion-tuned sites and landing pages, then improving them with continuous experimentation.

The problem

Beautiful sites that load slowly and convert poorly waste every rupee of traffic sent to them. Most brands never A/B test at all.

What we do

  1. 1Design fast, mobile-first conversion pages
  2. 2Engineer clean, accessible front-end
  3. 3Run structured A/B experiments
  4. 4Iterate from heatmaps and session data
Deliverables
  • Landing page / site design
  • Front-end build
  • A/B testing program
  • CRO experiment reports

09Brand

Branding & Identity

Branding and identity is the system of positioning, naming and visual language that makes a brand instantly recognisable.

The problem

Without a clear position and consistent identity, marketing spend builds no memory. Every ad feels like starting from zero.

What we do

  1. 1Define positioning, audience and messaging
  2. 2Develop naming and verbal identity
  3. 3Design logo, type and visual system
  4. 4Deliver brand guidelines for every team
Deliverables

Online Reputation Management

Online reputation management is the active monitoring and shaping of how a person or brand appears across search and review platforms.

The problem

A single bad search result or review wave can cost deals for years. Most brands only react after the damage is visible.

What we do

  1. 1Monitor sentiment across search and reviews
  2. 2Drive review velocity from happy customers
  3. 3Shape and control branded search results
  4. 4Respond to crises with a clear playbook

Analytics & Reporting

Analytics and reporting is the infrastructure that makes every marketing rupee attributable through clean tracking and live dashboards.

The problem

Decisions made on guesswork waste budget. Without server-side tracking and unified reporting, attribution is broken and channels fight over credit.

What we do

  1. 1Implement GA4 and server-side tracking
  2. 2Unify channel data into Looker dashboards
  3. 3Define the metrics that map to revenue
  4. 4Review performance on a fixed cadence
Deliverables

Celebrity & Influencer Marketing

Influencer and celebrity marketing is paid collaboration with creators whose audience trust transfers measurable demand to your brand.

The problem

Brands overpay for vanity follower counts, sign creators with no usage rights, and never tie a single sale back to a collaboration.

What we do

  1. 1Shortlist vetted creators by audience fit, not follower count
  2. 2Negotiate briefs, deliverables and paid-usage rights
  3. 3Brief content that performs as both organic and paid ads
  4. 4Track reach, engagement and attributed sales per creator
Deliverables
  • Creator shortlist & vetting
  • Campaign briefs & contracts
  • Usage rights for paid amplification
  • Per-creator performance report

FAQ

Structured to be quoted directly by Google and AI engines.

Caught by Apricot plans, runs and measures full-funnel marketing across paid media, social, e-commerce, SEO and AI search. We combine performance advertising with creative, retention and analytics so brands grow profitably — and stay visible as buyers shift from Google to AI assistants like ChatGPT and Perplexity.

SEO earns rankings on a results page; GEO earns citations inside AI-generated answers. GEO structures content with answer capsules, schema and clear entities so engines like ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity quote your brand directly. The two are complementary — strong SEO foundations make GEO citations far more likely.

We focus on D2C and e-commerce brands across India and the GCC, plus founders, celebrities and personal brands needing social and reputation growth. Our campaigns are built for local platforms and buyer behaviour — Meta, Google Ads, Instagram, Amazon, Flipkart and WhatsApp.

Every engagement starts with GA4 and server-side tracking so revenue is attributable, not guessed. We report blended ROAS, customer acquisition cost, lifetime value and AI share of voice in live Looker Studio dashboards, reviewed with you on a fixed cadence.

Paid media and creative typically show meaningful movement within 30–60 days. SEO and GEO compound over three to six months as authority and citations build. We set milestone expectations in the strategy phase so progress is measurable at every step.

Yes. We run a free audit of your ad accounts, analytics and AI visibility, then share a prioritised list of opportunities. There is no obligation — it is the fastest way to see where revenue is leaking and where AI search is leaving you uncited.
