Challenges

Competing in the Outdoor Living Essentials Market

City Bonfire, known for its innovative camping mini fire pits and cozy chair blankets, operates in a highly competitive outdoor lifestyle segment.

Standing Out in Seasonal Demand Cycles

Outdoor products often face fluctuating demand tied to seasons and holidays. City Bonfire needed a way to stabilize sales momentum throughout the year.

Breaking Through Against Larger Competitors

Bigger outdoor brands dominated ad space and search rankings, making it difficult for City Bonfire’s unique offerings to gain traction with new audiences.

Building Recognition in a Niche Category

While their products had strong word-of-mouth appeal, the brand lacked widespread eCommerce visibility and needed stronger positioning to become the go-to choice for campers and outdoor enthusiasts.

"Before XENA, we were competing with bigger players and constantly worried about getting buried in search results. Their strategies helped us break through and dominate."
