THE APPROACH

Support where it was needed

Our Virtual Social Media Manager was onsite one afternoon each week to manage social media content and campaigns.

THE SOLUTION

Multi-pronged strategy

An integrated, data-driven approach designed to capture, nurture, and convert high-value leads across every touchpoint.

01

Virtual Social Media Manager

Pairing a Virtual Social Media Manager and Virtual Digital Strategist, we workshopped and developed a social media strategy to design the best path towards meeting the organisation’s goals.

02

Social Content Calendar

social content calendar and detailed content plan was created for easy collaboration and client approval, new social media creative design implemented, and a paid campaign plan established to focus investment on boosting key events, industry initiatives, ICNZ resources and key messaging.

Targeting

Core to campaign success is the targeting of new audience segments to grow reach, especially amongst younger and financially vulnerable demographics.

“Since appointing Virtual Marketers to manage our social media earlier this year they have consistently delivered above and beyond. We now have an integrated content planning and scheduling system in place, a consistent brand presence to our material and a well thought out strategic approach to our month by month activity.

Engagement has continued to grow across our audiences and we know that with the team's support we will continue to exceed our KPI’s. No job is ever too big an ask and their support across an ever evolving platform is invaluable.”‍
