At Just Eat, we worked hard across the business to provide support packages to all stakeholders & restaurant partners affected. We also had to rethink our own approach to search advertising to find a smarter strategy that would continue to allow us to strive for channel growth.

Hidai will share from his experience working with businesses in various industries, types & sizes

– You worked hard to get them to find you, but did they buy? – Maybe you’re designing for robots and not humans? How to find the balance?


– Are you quickly & easily answering the 3 main questions of your customer: What is it? Does it work? How it works?


– The places to go wild with content for SEO, in other words “so now you decided to be short and not include all the possible key words?“ – FAQs and blogs, and how to use them effectively


– What we can measure and what we can’t – the data and attribution challenges in multi-channel, how channels impact each other
