Rex Cox Men's Wear

Project Overview:

The Client

Rex Cox Menswear is a long-standing men’s clothing store in downtown Mission, BC — a trusted name since 1925. They specialize in suits, dress shirts, and men’s smart-casual wear, serving customers throughout the Fraser Valley both in-store and online.

Their goal: strengthen online visibility, attract new local customers, and grow e-commerce sales without losing the personal, small-town service that sets them apart.

The Challenge

Even with a long-standing reputation, Rex Cox wasn’t showing up where it mattered most — on Google. They were missing opportunities to be found for searches like “men’s suits Mission BC” and “men’s clothing store Mission.”

Website content was minimal, product descriptions were short, and local visibility was low. There was also zero blog content to support organic traffic growth. They needed a content-focused SEO approach that would help new customers discover them naturally.

The Approach:

We began with a comprehensive onsite optimization phase. This improved website performance, enhanced user experience, and allowed us to strategically incorporate high-impact keywords such as “men’s clothing store” and “men’s suits” into page titles, headings, and meta descriptions.

Next, attention shifted to Google My Business optimization. Their profile was strengthened with detailed product listings, regular updates, and consistent engagement to build trust with local shoppers. We also implemented a simple yet effective reputation management process to encourage satisfied customers to leave positive reviews.

Finally, we launched a targeted content marketing strategy. Regular blog posts focused on topics like suits, weddings, and smart casual wear — positioning Rex Cox as a knowledgeable, approachable authority in men’s fashion across the Fraser Valley.
