How Fitman Pro Grew B2B Sportswear Quote Requests 375% with WordPress and a Global Niche SEO Strategy
A conversion-focused WordPress rebuild and global B2B SEO strategy for a custom sportswear manufacturer — a multi-step quote engine, Manufacturer schema, niche keyword domination, and trust signals that turned cold traffic into qualified bulk orders from 23 countries.
Measurable Results
Client Background & Challenge
Fitman Pro manufactures custom team uniforms, BJJ gis, MMA gear, and private-label sportswear for academies, gyms, and brands worldwide with minimum orders from 50 pieces. With OEKO-TEX certified production and Trustpilot reviews, the quality was excellent — but the website was failing to communicate that quality to the bulk buyers who could transform the business.
Their acquisition model relied entirely on cold outreach and trade shows — expensive, low-conversion, and unscalable. The website had no B2B SEO presence for high-value queries ("custom BJJ gi manufacturer," "private label gym apparel OEM") and no trust architecture — OEKO-TEX certification and Trustpilot reviews were buried or absent. Most importantly, there was no quote system — buyers had to email a generic address and wait, losing most in the process.
- ✕Zero Page 1 rankings for any "custom sportswear manufacturer" or "private label sports apparel" keyword globally
- ✕No quote configurator — interested buyers emailing generic address with 48-72hr response time, losing 70%+ at this stage
- ✕OEKO-TEX and Trustpilot trust signals absent from product and service pages
- ✕No sport-specific product pages — BJJ, MMA, rugby, basketball, football all under generic "Products" menu
- ✕No manufacturer schema — Google could not identify Fitman Pro as a manufacturer vs a retailer in structured data
Our Strategy & Execution Plan
- Built a custom WordPress site with a 4-step quote configurator: Sport → Product Type → Quantity Tier → Design Upload.
- Quote engine pre-qualifies leads — capturing sport, order size, and artwork status before a human touches the inquiry.
- OEKO-TEX and Trustpilot widgets integrated on every product page — trust signals visible at the point of purchase decision.
- Built 12 sport-specific product pages: /custom-bjj-gi/, /mma-shorts-manufacturer/, /custom-rugby-kit/, /sublimation-basketball-jersey/, etc.
- Manufacturer + Product schema with MOQ, production timeline, and certification attributes.
- "Custom BJJ Gi Manufacturer" page with production process walkthrough, fabric specs, and buyer guides — now ranks #1 globally.
- Content hub targeting academy and gym owner decision-making: "How to Order Custom Sportswear for Your Academy," "MOQ Guide for Startup Fitness Brands."
- Secured editorial placements in Fightland, Combat Press, and Boutique Fitness Business — reaching the exact audience searching for custom gear.
- Trustpilot review acquisition programme — from 23 reviews to 140+ with verified purchase badges.

"The quote system OVEXBEE built changed everything. Instead of chasing leads who emailed once and disappeared, we now have gyms and academies filling out a proper form that tells us exactly what they need. Close rate went from around 15% to over 30% overnight."
