They were looking to grow into a million dollar brand and beyond, but did not understand what part of the customer journey was breaking down.

It was an eight-week engagement to conduct an SEO audit for a section of the client's site. I managed an offshore resource supporting the engagement and used an in-house design specialist to product the final report deliverable for the client. I conducted a range of interviews with the major members of the marketing team to understand internal processes, workflows, marketing persona development and marketing research.

PAID ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN RESULTS:

BRAND AWARENESS CAMPAIGNS:

WEBSITE PURCHASE CONVERSION CAMPAIGNS:

Prior to the social media marketing strategy, an online store had not run any Facebook ads. We were able to test and find their target audiences and scaled their ad spend from 1k/ month to 20k/ month and still retain the same ROAS.

The major issue this client had was finding someone reliable to strategize and implement email marketing campaigns to their existing list. They have tried several agencies and freelancers, but the quality of work and results were not there.

• No Campaign Strategy: There was no developed campaign strategy.
• Poorly Designed Emails: Previous campaigns were poorly designed.
• Excluding Certain Products: Certain products had to be excluded from all promotions.
