Digital Marketing Case Study

Partnering to create and implement a two-year digital roadmap for organic search, paid search, and social marketing.

Background

Following the launch of their new website in 2019, KI wanted to supercharge their digital marketing efforts.

At that time, they were in the “walk” stage of the digital agility model. KI needed a strategy to help move them to the next level of maturity, so they partnered with Diagram to create and implement a two-year digital roadmap with specific strategies for organic search, paid search, and social marketing.

Social Media

In 2021, KI wanted to take a fresh look at their organic and paid social strategies, and they looked to their longtime partners at Diagram for insight.

Diagram performed an organic social media audit and competitive analysis. That analysis informed a “Social Media Playbook” with detailed recommendations for each platform to address tone, cadence, response protocol, call-to-action strategy, and more.

Diagram also provides ongoing strategic management of KI’s paid social efforts. Monthly management efforts include audience and budget planning, campaign set up and optimization, and monthly reporting. All efforts are coordinated to ensure that social strategy aligns with the client’s goals for engagement, traffic, and conversion.
