how to
run a
great campaign
What makes a campaign successful?
The answer is simple: when it achieves its goals. But even defining the goals is not trivial and conception of the right strategy is even more complex.

Our 6 keys for great campaigns
It's no secret that campaigns using all relevant channels are more successful due to broader contact opportunities. They prevent our customers from losing contacts or leads they have already collected.
For example, a first brand touchpoint with a contact has been made. Perfect. But later on the prospect googles your product or brand, the lead may be lost towards your competitor whoโs present on Google. This only happens in case you have missed out SEA as a campaign channel.
Defining a successful channel-mix is a base element of our strategy. And here are some more insights:
Define
the right goals
The conception needs a clear direction and goal-definition, for example:
- Brand Awareness
- Interaction
- Customer Loyalty
Every direction has its own goals, tactics and metrics.
Identify
your KPIs and...
...find the best way to analyze them. We work with cascading KPIs to score every stage of the journey. How to work with KPIs:
- Use as much as necessary - as little as possible
- Distinguish between budget and performance KPIs
- Evaluate real time, if possible
Trust concrete facts. Don't waste your time with nonsens or ego-KPIs.
Plan your campaign channel agnostic
Playing a holistic approach gives you more than picking only one channel. But using multiple channels requires:
- A channel-mix preset based on target group availability
- A Birdยดs Eye view on numbers
- Ongoing objective adjustment of the mix based on results
Challenging channels against each other gives you the opportunity to spend your campaign budget more efficiently and clearly aligned with your goals.
Use all relevant networks independently
Every channel has its networks and the choice is not always as clear as with SEM and Google vs. Bing. What to consider:
- Working in a bubble reduces your visbility
- Multiple networks could reduce your CPM
- A channel agnostic strategy boosts your results
For example: your target group ist not only on Facebook and Instagram. A campaign should use the reach of all relevant networks.
