Zest Dental is one of the largest dental implant manufacturers in the U.S. Their primary audiences are Dentists at offices across the country who perform surgery with dental implants. Some challenges I faced were

• The client is a leader in the space which makes new customer acquisition strategies/expansion more difficult 
• They had no great offers to use in their campaigns 
• Sophisticated B2B audience
• Brand loyalty to competitors in the market

The strategy

I began by leveraging the client’s existing data and Google’s machine learning algorithm to ensure that we’re targeting users most likely to convert. The goal was to feed the algorithm with the best data possible so we could go after new customers searching for non-branded terms.

After sufficiently utilizing campaign structures to segment the customer journey map in Google Ads, I began a substantial increase in ad spend to scale this account while maintaining an optimal ROAS.

Once we established a great search ads structure, we began to move higher in the funnel utilizing Google display, discovery and video campaigns for new customer acquisition.

This client did not have an established SEO program in place. The client was paying more for paid ads to build brand awareness and sales and decided to pivot to leverage SEO to increase targeted, qualified traffic.

The challenge at Constellation HomeBuilder Systems was to develop the groundworks for marketing initiatives to influence select accounts and persona's in the vertical market of construction and homebuilding. The marketing team required the introduction of initiatives that included demand generation, nurture programs, direct mail promotions, events, and product promotions.

Existing challenges within the account limited their ability to test new prospecting strategies and limited their growth potential. For example, prior to our involvement, the majority of the budget was dedicated toward branded search campaigns, as many competitors were bidding on their branded terms in hopes to capture away TaxJar's most valuable traffic. Unfortunately, this fierce competition resulted in higher-than-expected costs and required much of the focus, energy, and budget.

Even after successfully freeing up budget from the branded search issues, profitably acquiring new business was no easy feat. Tax services are consumed on an as-needed basis. A brand awareness effort would only be effective if the messaging was powerful and the timing was perfect. That is, even if a business owner hears about TaxJar and thinks they should sign up for the services, it’s typically something that is pushed on the back-burner.

More than ever, if would be crucial to meet their potential customers when they are actively in the market for tax services and in the medium in which they would best respond to our messaging.
