How we can help with your Digital Strategy

The Team

From first engagement, we’ll assign you a digital marketing strategy team member with expertise and experience in your industry. We have some of the brightest digital strategists, planners, and practitioners in the country. A successful strategy involves investing time getting close to your team to truly understand your business. Search Republic will act as a true partner to your organisation, proactively identifying and leveraging every available opportunity in your marketing strategy.

Goal Setting

We work closely with you to create a digital marketing strategy. The destination is a set of defined goals we hope to achieve through our combined marketing efforts. These goals should be tied back to the fundamental goals of your business. For example, if your goal is lead generation, we’ll begin optimising content according to which pieces are generating leads through search engines, social media, or email marketing. Deciding on goals allows us to track the right results in your digital campaign.

Defining the Target Audience

Search Republic makes sure we (and the partner) have a better understanding of the target market, demographics, and psychology of existing and new customers. As part of our marketing strategy, we will create buyer personas that help pinpoint who we want to speak with, knowing they will be interested in what we have to say.

Identifying Effective Channels

Once we identify potential customers in our marketing plan, we establish precisely how and where to find them. We may do this through SEO (Search Engine Optimisation), social media, paid ads, or content marketing. We then determine what stage they’re at in their buying journey and develop the best digital marketing strategies to engage them. Prospects may be in one of three stages: Awareness, Consideration, or Conversion. Each stage has different goals, requiring different channels and different creative. Using this information, we develop an effective strategy that helps our partners move towards their digital marketing goals more strategically.

Getting the Message Right

We like to understand our partner’s audiences. Each stage of the sales funnel requires different creative messaging that appeals to prospects depending on their stage in the buyer’s journey. We speak on their terms, identify their pain points, and outline how to solve their problems through effective content marketing. Once we undertake the research, we can create personalised marketing messaging that audiences will be far more receptive to.

Measurement and Reporting

A digital marketing strategy needs to be thoroughly measured and reported on to understand what is working and what needs tweaking. For example, if paid media is part of the strategy, we’ll continually analyse how these tactics drive results for your business. We work closely with all our partners to create reports that clearly and concisely outline results, keeping our partner’s needs at the forefront.

Our Approach

1. Onboarding

We talk with you to build a strong understanding of your business, target markets, and long-term goals. This information helps us determine the best digital marketing tactics for engagement and growth.

2. Actioning

We research consumer behaviour and use our expertise and smart insights to develop a digital marketing strategy that aligns with your goals. Our SEO team utilises Google Analytics and technology such as AI and machine learning to implement the most effective tools, channels, and messaging to achieve results.

3. Reporting

We provide regular transparent reporting on your traffic and conversion progress, plus details about Google’s latest updates that affect your digital marketing strategy. For example, we’ll keep you up-to-date with your paid advertising efforts, where you spend money on social media ads or Pay-Per-Click (PPC) ads to grab the attention of your buyer personas. In addition, we continuously offer feedback and communication via calls, emails, face-to-face meetings, or any conferencing system you prefer.
