Project Goal

A learning destination and wellness retreat in the Santa Cruz valley that needed an omni-channel digital strategy to increase awareness and grow their program bookings. Goal was to increase awareness by 20% QoQ as well as increase program signups by 15% MoM.

Please note: this is a client of Milestone Inc. that I was managing during my time with Milestone.

Solution

  1. Developed program-based customer personas, and crafted messaging and copies accordingly.
  2. Constructed an extensive digital strategy across the full user funnel, included channel and budget recommendations based on the different goals at every stage of the funnel.
  3. Launched a few non-branded top funnel campaigns on Google search, YouTube, Twitter, and LinkedIn to generate impressions and increase awareness.
  4. Launched a few bottom funnel branded campaigns on Google search, Gmail retargeting, and Facebook LLA to convert users and drive up bookings.

Results:

  • Generated 8,900 visits to the website from the paid campaigns (72% new visitors).
  • Produced a 21x return on ad spend in the quarter (525% increase QoQ).
  • Some of the campaigns reached a 24% CTR (industry avg is 4.6%) which reflects high resonance with the ads.
