Connor James · Dunedin · Marketing engagement — Dunedin, New Zealand

Summary

Before

Spending ~$8k a month on traditional media — with no way to connect that spend to an enquiry, a call, or a signed job.

What we changed

Moved the attention strategy to digital channels where the same reach cost a fraction of the price and every impression had a traceable path back to a response.

After

Comparable reach for ~$100 instead of ~$8,000. The more important shift: Tom can now see exactly what his spend is producing.

In their words

I can now track what's coming back from my spend.
