Our 6/six step

process

We start by getting to know each other, usually on an initial call or two with your team. It's all about understanding who you are, your short and long-term goals, and the resources available to leverage now so we can build on strength and get you to your targets. You wouldn’t let someone without a license or understanding of the road rules drive a car and this is our way of earning the license required to get you where you want to be.

We take all the learnings from our initial calls, and perhaps a mini tech stack audit, and identify the best service or mix of services that are the right fit for your business, budget and goals, then run you through your best options and our availability to schedule the work for kickoff.

Now it’s time to get everything set up for success. We pick your brains even deeper than we did on our initial get to know each other call and get you to fill out a briefing doc, which we then discuss on a kickoff call. Meanwhile, our team researches the target market, develops the strategy, assesses viability of any existing creative assets (such as videos, images, copy, and the website/ticketing/booking user experience) and often edit or create new ones. Here we also refine the campaign key messaging, write new copy variations, map out the marketing funnel, create targeting lists, identify keywords and hashtags, and set up tracking and analytics to make sure we're collecting as much meaningful data as possible. Phew. Talk about busy busy! No wonder you don't have time for all this.

The work doesn’t stop once campaigns are live because we’re not a set-and-forget type of agency. We are continuously analysing, testing and optimising for continued success. The social media and digital marketing world is one of the fastest-changing industries there is, so part of our delivery is ensuring our clients’ campaigns are keeping up and performing as they should, and that we're always learning and optimising for greater results thanks to the data and insights we have access to.

Being the results-driven team that we are, you can be sure the reporting will be transparent and crystal clear. We don’t hide behind accounts you can’t access or data you can’t understand. We ensure you own all your data and we simply have access to it, which allows us to help you interpret and understand the data and what it means for your business and targets.
