WHAT IS THE MISSING INGREDIENT FOR A BADASS BRAND ?

A BADASS AGENCY

WHO WE ARE

We like to help brands that may not have the same massive media budgets as their biggest competitors! Where you may not have the same VOLUME of spend, your media mix can still strategically create VOLUME in attention from your core targets. We have a track record to prove it in ways big agencies (with their templates) just aren’t built to.

Just ask brands like Pabst, First Watch, Deep Eddy and more.

Connectivity – National Strength – Localized Approach

We are the missing ingredient! See for yourselves…

Currently focus on Facebook, adding in Instagram for some paid elements.

We work hand in hand with IMC and the Margaritaville brand on promotions, UGC, reviews, content monitoring and overall content.

PPC

PPC is a critical component to close up loose ends:

  • Our philosophy is to pinpoint PPC where it can drive additional traffic
  • Suggesting some narrowing to top 1,000 terms
  • Suggesting tighter integration to social campaigns
  • Split testing of adjusting offers
  • Better testing and exploring impact of geography
  • Path-to-purchase and/or form fill where relevant
  • Bi-Weekly recaps provided with recommended in-flight adjustments
  • Deeper detail provided in details deck

PROGRAMMATIC

If done correctly, programmatic can help transition from mass media brand building to driving consumers into intender set.
