Audit of marketing activity, increasing the effectiveness of SMM and online advertising
A company, a producer of salt mineral water and beverages, signed a contract with a third-party advertising agency (hereinafter - the contractor) to create social media pages for one of its key brands, to form a Unique Brand Sales Proposition and conduct advertising campaigns in search engines.
After three months of work the customer was not satisfied with the results of the contractor's work, both in terms of the involvement of the Internet audience and sales dynamics. Therefore, a specialist from Vimikr Consulting was involved.
Tasks- Audit of the marketing measures
- Identification of problem areas
- Increase the efficiency of SMM-activity
- Develop special advertising campaigns
- Develop USP of the brand and a slogan based on the research of target audience.
ImplementationDuring the audit it was found that 55% of paid advertising in social networks was shown to young people under 25 years old, which is not the key consumer of salt mineral water. 30% of the traffic was shown in regions where the brand is not available on store shelves. Versions of the USP developed by the advertising agency did not meet the expectations of the target audience.
The result of the work of Vimikr Consulting specialistThe advertising agency had to admit that traffic amounting to 4,900 euros was shown to an audience that was not the target audience for the customer's brand. This amount was returned to the customer's advertising budget. Media planning was redesigned, the CA in the social media advertising offices was reconfigured, resulting in a 4-fold increase in audience engagement. The results of the advertising campaigns led to an increase in the CA's knowledge of the brand. Increased rating in Nielsen analytical reports led to a listing in retail networks, and a subsequent multiple increase in sales.
