Brief
- Improve the website ranking of a Canadian owned Medical School.
- Increase student application.
- Manage website properties
- Manage multiple social media platforms
- Perform daily analytics across properties
Marketing spend: </=$50,000 monthly.
Solution
To maximize this budget, ad spend was broken into:
- Google advertising 40%
- Social Media (advertising) 30%
- Content marketing 10%
- SEO 5%
- Influencer marketing 5%
- Marketing materials design (Landing pages, lead hooks etc) 10%
The purpose of this campaign was to generate awareness, leads, and eventually, XXX number of paying customers in the first quarter.
I was responsible for creating and managing the overall Google ad campaign using a combination of well-worded display and search ads. We outranked competitors in ad share by using a clever keyword targeting strategy and multiple campaigns
For the social media ad, we focused on targeting lesser-known but highly profitable markets with very low CPC (0.06), high CTR, and Conversion. While these markets have high spam rates, the low cost per acquisition makes it worth it.
I moved around the marketing budget based on analytics and customer behavior. For instance, through analytics, I discovered Facebook performed better than Google ads so the marketing budget was re-evaluated to capture this.
In total we were able to generate Xxx number of customers (over 200% above target) Given that the product is high priced and seasonally paid (paid 3 times yearly), we had a projected sales of over $4.4M on a quarterly ad spend of $150,000
With one of our campaigns, our competitors were highly outranking us causing us to lose market share for a highly profitable region.
This was resolved as a result of teamwork. We analyzed and optimized the campaign based on feedback from a Google rep.
During this time, we also discovered another management-level issue with branding and tabled our suggestions to management. This is just a summary of a huge project that was sadly impacted by COVID-19.
As part of the SEO Marketing Map team, I am very interested in bringing my digital marketing expertise to your brand. I am also thrilled about the possibility of working with a new team and learning from them. If you find my work interesting, kindly get in touch so we can discuss the details of your project!
