Advertising

We submitted two advertising campaigns, a social media campaign and an integrated campaign.

Creating a 900% Social Growth for Creative Agency, Red Shark Digital

Our social media submission was accredited to Red Shark Digital’s Instagram profile @redsharkdigital, as we created a 900% social growth in one year. We overhauled our strategy that consisted of promoting current work/awards and created an educational space of resources for individuals looking for digital marketing-related content. Success was tracked through increased web engagement, increased social engagement, and increased brand awareness. With very little advertising budget allotted, our challenge was to gain a decent following solely through organic efforts. We now have 30.2K followers, so our social accounts have done just that, proving to be a valuable resource for both marketers and those searching for marketing services.

Delivering 7:1 ROI While Transforming a B2B Private Jet Company to B2C

Next up, we submitted an integrated advertising campaign accredited to delivering a 7:1 ROI while transforming a B2B private jet company to B2C in two months. The goal for the digital campaign was to deliver quality, qualified leads. Not only was the expectation to increase leads, but also ensuring these leads were qualified to purchase a membership or book a flight. Success was tracked through leads that booked flights, purchased Jet Club Memberships, increased web engagement, increased social engagement and increased brand awareness. Red Shark Digital was approached to create and execute a successful digital marketing campaign to promote the private jet company’s new Jet Club and transition more to B2C. The objective was to deliver quality, qualified leads very quickly to a consumer audience. Faced with a tight timeline, we quickly implemented a mini website overhaul in a weekend’s time in order to meet the desired campaign launch date. We placed silver for both advertising entries!
