Viadex Marketing Engagement Overview
Overview
The review of the effectiveness of specifically LinkedIn and Rocketseed has been done in combination with Google Analytics to ensure that that the stats between all 3 systems correlates and most importantly we are driving people to our website which is essentially our shopfront. The results are:
- The LinkedIn strategy is showing positive movement. The community is growing (the sample of 35 staff and the Global Page is currently being expanded to all staff). We have attracted 452 new followers to the Global page (Feb to Nov) and are tracking their name, title and if they are Viadex customers manually on a daily basis. LinkedIn is about consistency and measurement, although it needs to be understood that some engagement (aka. brand recognition) takes time so cannot be measured immediately. This will gain more strength and reach when the following is added to our monthly campaigns:
- Video clips / Access to Video discussion on hot / relevant topics
- Different activities - Non selling but value additions to businesses - white papers, polls, panels etc
- Paid LinkedIn Ads
- The Rocketseed strategy is working. In 135 days we have 937 expressions of interest linked to banners with unique messaging. These are unique - there are indications that emails are being shared internally within some companies but we cannot see the "forwarded email address" - only the original so have only counted the call to action as a single expression of interest.
- The impact of these two channels on the website is evident in engagement stats - total visitors, new visitors, length of stay on the site and the fact that people are looking at multiple pages. Average increase in 2023 website activity is around +56% on 2022. These results would be further increased in the plan for 2024 with:
- The new website creating simpler and cleaner user journeys - 3 step approach
- Paid SEO as everything we have done to date as been achieved organically
- Leveraging our key partners brand strength in the SEO taglines ie. CATO, Nexthink, Hemmersbach
- Introduction of the new format to the website - video, podcast, vodcast using product specialists
- To date we have focused on single solutions ie. DaaS for extended periods. I would suggest that we rotate the 4 keys solutions (DaaS, Dextools, SASE and Multilingual Service Desk) to create opportunities.
