Project overview

Smart Energy Group designs and installs engineered solar and battery-storage systems for homes and businesses, with operating entities in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia and eSwatini. As the group expanded across markets, it needed one credible, consistent brand and a digital presence to match its engineering pedigree.

We started at the foundation: a new group logo and full brand identity, then rolled it out across a website for each country entity, and now run the group’s full digital marketing. The objective was a unified brand that earns trust, ranks locally in each market, and reliably generates qualified installation leads.

One group, four markets, and no unified brand to tie it together

A fast-growing solar group operating across four countries needed a brand and digital engine that could scale. Four things had to be solved.

No unified brand

The group had no consistent identity to present one credible, engineering-grade brand across every market.

Four distinct markets

South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia and eSwatini each needed a local presence without fragmenting the brand.

Weak lead generation

There was no reliable digital pipeline turning interest into qualified installation enquiries.

No ongoing marketing

The group needed a partner to run marketing continuously, not a one-off build that then went stale.

Brand, websites and full-funnel marketing, built to scale across markets

We built the group from the ground up and now run its marketing end to end, focused on four pillars:

Brand identity Multi-entity web SEO & performance Digital marketing

Brand & identity

A complete brand built from the group logo up, engineered to signal trust and quality across every market.

  • New group logo and full visual identity system
  • Colour, typography and imagery guidelines
  • Consistent brand assets for all four entities
  • A credible, engineering-grade look and feel

Multi-entity websites

A website for each country entity, consistent in brand but tuned to its local market.

  • One design system rolled out across South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia and eSwatini
  • Localised content and market-specific detail
  • Clear service and solution pages for solar and storage
  • Enquiry paths built to capture installation leads

SEO & performance

Built for speed and search so each market ranks for high-intent solar terms.

  • Technical SEO foundations and clean structure
  • Local SEO tuned to each country market
  • Fast, fully responsive builds across all devices
  • Content targeting real buyer search intent

Full-funnel digital marketing

An ongoing programme that turns awareness into qualified installation leads.

  • Paid media and lead-generation campaigns
  • Content and social to build authority and demand
  • Analytics, tracking and monthly reporting
  • Continuous optimisation across every market
