Road to Desolation, a premier gravel cycling event in the Karoo, had everything in place—an exceptional experience, a professional website, and a passionate team—but still struggled to reach the right audience online. Despite previous marketing efforts, they weren’t appearing in relevant search results, and the event wasn’t gaining the visibility it deserved among gravel riders and endurance athletes.
That changed when they partnered with LocalGrow360. Our team implemented a strategic local SEO plan focused on high-intent keywords, optimized their Google Business Profile (GBP), and refined on-page content to match what serious cyclists were actively searching for. We also developed geo-targeted landing pages, ensured accurate local citations, and strengthened their online reputation through a consistent content and visibility strategy.

After trying multiple marketing avenues with little to no results, we partnered with LocalGrow360—and everything changed. Their team quickly earned our trust with their transparency and clear strategy. For the first time, we truly understood what was being done and why it mattered. Now, we’re seeing real engagement from our target audience, and every marketing dollar is making a meaningful impact. It’s been one of the best decisions we’ve made for growing the event.
