Step 1: Find Your Target Audience
We work with you to identify the best members and sponsors. Specifically identifying your ideal audience, their needs and their goals will help us tailor messaging that resonates with them and accelerates their advocacy of your brand and community engagement. We help you seek the situations and types of members that will engage with you again and again, and the ones that can easily become the best advocates for your community. It is our goal to shine the light on your expertise and benefits for members and sponsors. This allows you to become known for the way your community connects and drives achievement.
Step 2: Branding
Your brand must be relatable, memorable and must convey your values, spark engagement, and easily engage long term support. This is a design challenge that we are able to meet for our community clients. It is also the first step in which you align yourself with your mission.
Step 3: Website Strategy
Developing a website that is attractive, engaging and that convert visitors to members and sponsors. We complete this by employing a flexible strategy that works. This includes creating designated areas for keyword topics, events, member login, and education. We often recommend specific pages grouped according to the different ways to join and support your community as well as the individuals and brands you work with.
These pages then are used as landing pages for social posts, ads or for targeting ranking on search engines. When someone is interested in a topic or are searching specific key terms, they don’t go to your home page. Google and other search engines send them to a page that tells them about the specific topic they want to know more about. These pages are designed for conversion.
Step 4: Strategy
Now that you have identified your target members, have a solid brand and highly converting website a unique strategy can be created to run ads, optimize, and engage with potential members and sponsors across platforms. This strategy is based in budget as portions are used for long term goals and short term goals. By segmenting your budget and your strategies ROIs can be reported on more accurately across platform performance. Remaining transparent in our practices, engaging with our clients to match their voice and pitch, and having hard conversations about funnels and processes we truly partner for your success.
