Case Study

Low Cost, High Return Social Media Marketing

In 2017, over 80% of small businesses used social media outlets such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and Instagram to further their brands. There are many benefits to having social media campaigns to grow your business including:

  • Exposure: It is an effective way to get the word out about your business.
  • Relationship-building: It provides you with an opportunity to grow relationships with your target audience(s). This is achieved via your online followers who are already your established business contacts, who will then recommend you to their contacts, and so on.

Social Media Marketing requires a strategy, due diligence, A/B testing, and constant tweaking to achieve and build upon a desired result. For over a decade, Active Web Group has provided many businesses of every size with the social media marketing tools needed to achieve their goals. For each we have designed customized social media marketing strategies and solutions that have cost-effectively furthered their business and increased their online revenue. Below are examples of our success stories.

Results

Month Over the Month (MoM) comparisons yielded these sample campaign highlights:

Example #2 The Challenge

A local dealership selling luxury European sports vehicles contacted AWG. The dealership needed a way to encourage qualified website visitorship (those specifically interested in buying or leasing these vehicles) and to increase leads.

The Execution

After the economic downturn a decade ago, the luxury vehicle marketplace has shown signs of rallying, but is not yet back to previous figures. It became AWG?s goal to assist this client to gain as much of the existing luxury sports car buyers market as possible. Again, a multi-disciplined approach included a Facebook campaign to increase buyer awareness of this brand and the local dealership. The success of this initiative and the contributions Social Media made to the client overall campaign initiatives is shown below.
