Client Profile: Meet the Local Business

Business Background and Market Position

The business we teamed up with is a well-known retail brand in Australia. They face tough competition. We looked at their market position and found areas to improve.

Initial Digital Footprint Assessment

We checked their digital presence and found they had a basic website. But, their social media was not used much. We saw chances to make their online presence stronger with a good social media plan.

Our study showed they could grow online, mainly on Instagram and Facebook. These are where their customers are most active.

Identifying Growth Barriers and Objectives

Every business has its own challenges. We help our clients find these and set clear goals. This way, we can make a digital plan that meets their needs and helps them grow.

Key Business Challenges

We start by looking closely at what challenges our clients face. We check their online presence, market position, and who they compete with. This helps us find what needs fixing and how to fix it.

Businesses often struggle with being seen, not engaging well on social media, and reaching their audience. We help our clients find the cause of these problems and fix them with special plans.

Establishing Clear Growth Targets

After finding the challenges, we help our clients set clear goals. These goals are specific, reachable, relevant, and have a deadline (SMART). This gives them a clear plan for their online strategy.

Setting clear goals helps us make a plan that works. It can be about being more known, getting more website visitors, or getting more leads. We make sure our clients’ online strategy matches their business goals.

Ad Format Selection and Creative Direction

We look at different ad types like images, videos, carousels, and stories. We choose the one that will help us meet our goals. We think about what the audience likes, where to place the ads, and the client’s brand.

If the audience loves visuals, we might use video or carousel ads. These ads show off the client’s products or services in a fun and interactive way.

Targeting Parameters and Budget Allocation

We set up targeting options to make sure the ads reach the right people. We use demographic, interest-based, and behavioural targeting. We also decide on a budget that matches the campaign’s goals.

• Demographic targeting: age, location, job title
• Interest-based targeting: hobbies, preferences
• Behavioural targeting: purchase history, online behaviour

A/B Testing Framework

We use an A/B testing framework to keep improving the campaign. We compare different ads, targeting, and budgets.
