A STORY TO TELL …We have been serving the local and regional markets formore than 7 years and have gathered considerableknowledge and experience. This allows us to confidentlystate that online marketing is still an ambiguous field in theregion.It’s understandable that agencies are finding it difficult tojustify their digital budget expenditure vs. results to clients.The willingness to invest in online marketing is clearly therebut the medium’s ROI, specifically social media marketing,is still unclear to them.Moreover, we have noticed a common trend in some of ourclients: Initially, they are excited to invest in onlinemarketing and test the medium. However, whenever weprovide them with our results, they are not quite sure whatto make of them. Their lack of experience and knowledge inthe business renders them unable to make any kind ofassessment, be it positive or negative. This eventuallyleads them to discontinue their online marketing initiative.We realized that what we knew to be great performingcampaigns didn't seem as great to those clients and thatput us in a difficult position.Faced with this conundrum, we wanted to show our clientsthe medium’s value and tried to explain the importance ofinvesting in online marketing.However, there was just not enough data in the regionthat allowed us to benchmark against external criteria andpresent them with a comprehensive competitive analysis.Even the biggest companies specialized in digitalanalytics such as ComScore were unable to provide uswith substantial data.Consequently, we decided two years ago to rethink ourbusiness model and shift our efforts towards investing inthe development of a unique platform. This would allow usto build a regional marketing database and GATHERMARKET INTELLIGENCE.By analyzing our acquired market intelligence, we arenow able to provide our clients with a hands-oncompetitive analysis and justify cost and ROI.We are a team with a vision. We believe that what sets usapart from the competition are our digital strategies, whichare backed up by local/regional market intelligence andhands-on experience. In terms of added value, we canprovide you with agency insights from our database andregional market data that no one else has.36
