Goal Setting and Strategy Development

We begin the media process by evaluating and understanding your campaign goals and marketing strategy to prioritize the most promising opportunities, asking questions designed specifically with business goals in mind.

These include: 
  • Are we driving awareness, consideration, acquisition, retention or a combination?
  • How is your audience currently interacting with mediums?
  • Where are messages best resonating with your audience?
  • Where is there opportunity for new audiences?
  • What parameters are established for budgeting and timing?
  • What is an optimized media mix that will impact reach and frequency?
  • Which creative executions are available or need to be developed? 

Audience Segmentation, Customer-Centric Targeting and Journey Mapping 

We specialize in constructing audience segments that enable us to identify the optimal media mix for reaching your target audience at the right time. By understanding the customer journey, we pinpoint like-minded communities where your message will resonate most effectively.

This strategic approach ensures that your brand connects with the right audience, in the right place and with the right message throughout the entire customer journey. 

Media Mix Selection and Strategic Implementation

Our media team will evaluate the best placement allocation per tactic, work with media partners for the best negotiations, and implement campaigns that will best engage your target audience to encourage the next action. We specialize in implementing both traditional and digital media tactics that integrate to deliver consistent touchpoints throughout the campaign, driving the audience from top-of-funnel to conversion.
