Our Process

1. Set Campaign Goals

The first step is to define clear, measurable objectives for your campaign. Are you aiming to increase brand awareness, generate leads, drive website traffic, or promote a specific product or service? Your goals will influence all subsequent decisions, such as targeting, budget, and creative direction, ensuring the campaign is focused and effective.

Within this phase we’ll outline:
  • Project Leaders and Team Members; including preferred method of communication and contact info.
  • Details and milestones
  • General content outline
  • Specific project requirements
  • Gather assets
  • Review samples and reference materials

2. Identify Target Audience

Understanding who your audience is crucial for the success of your campaign. Define key characteristics like demographics (age, gender, income, location), psychographics (interests, values, lifestyles), and behaviors (purchasing patterns, online activity). This ensures you tailor your messaging and choose the right channels to effectively reach the people who will respond to your campaign.

3. Create Ad Creative

Develop compelling and engaging ad creative that aligns with your campaign goals. This includes crafting impactful copy, designing visuals, and producing videos or other multimedia assets that resonate with your target audience. The creative should reflect your brand voice, evoke emotions, and prompt the desired action (e.g., clicking, signing up, purchasing).

4. Choose Channels & Set Budget

Select the media channels that are most effective for reaching your audience. Whether it’s social media, search ads, display ads, TV, radio, or print, choosing the right platform is key to your campaign’s success. At the same time, determine your campaign budget—how much you're willing to spend across media buys, creative production, and campaign management. This ensures the resources are allocated appropriately to meet your objectives.

5. Launch & Monitor

Once everything is in place, launch your campaign and begin tracking its performance. Use analytics tools to monitor metrics like impressions, clicks, conversions, and engagement. This step is crucial for making real-time adjustments to optimize performance. If certain ads or placements aren’t working as expected, adjustments can be made to improve the results without wasting resources.

6. Evaluate Results

After the campaign concludes, analyze the performance data to measure its success against your initial goals. Evaluate key metrics like ROI, cost per acquisition (CPA), and conversion rates. Identify what worked well and what didn’t, and gather insights to refine future campaigns. Reporting on these results also helps inform stakeholders and demonstrate the impact of the campaign.
