Marketing Strategies Applied: Organic + Paid Campaigns
We followed these steps:
Step 1: Worked on Brand Positioning
- In the first 3 months, we focused on improving his positioning within his network and increasing brand awareness.
- We created top-of-the-funnel content (wider industry topics showcasing his expertise) and middle-of-the-funnel content (systems his company uses to help clients). This was aimed at creating awareness about his services.
- After the third month, we began pushing bottom-of-the-funnel content (case studies, results, testimonials) to back up his expertise. This worked like magic, creating the buzz we intended.
Step 2: Curated Quality Content to Build Authority
- We scheduled content strategy calls to brainstorm ideas, took feedback from the client on how to approach topics, analyzed industry leaders, and followed best practices.
- Conducted a competitor analysis to observe their strategies, especially identifying their blind spots. We used this competitive edge to develop better content.
Step 3: Engaged Meaningfully with Industry Experts and Potential Clients
- Followed, connected, and interacted with industry experts and potential clients through comments and DMs, helping to build a genuine community.
- His expertise reflected in his content, and this attracted quality interactions on his posts and DMs, further boosting his credibility.
Step 4: A Mixed Approach to Achieve LinkedIn Goals
- Once we had established a solid online presence, our client launched a paid campaign.
- The combination of organic and paid campaigns turned out to be a powerful strategy, helping him crush his business goals.
The Results:
- A strong online presence to showcase his expertise.
- A 30% increase in inquiries and calls booked for his services.
- Improved ROI on outreach campaigns.
- Industry experts and ideal clients engaged with his content, boosting trust.
