Digital strategy
What we are trying to cause this quarter, which channel should lead, and what we will not spend time on.
Digital marketing
Digital marketing, as I practise it, is not a synonym for posting and boosting. It is choosing an audience, a message, a sequence of channels, and a way to tell whether any of it created an enquiry.
The point is a sequence you can explain: who you are talking to, what they should do next, and how we will know if it worked.
What we are trying to cause this quarter, which channel should lead, and what we will not spend time on.
Who the work is for, in language a media buyer and a copywriter can both use. Vague age ranges are not a strategy.
Forms, contact paths, and the unglamorous question: what happens after someone raises a hand.
The page after the click. If it cannot close, we do not scale the traffic.
Organic and paid in a sequence. Offers, landing pages, and creative that share a story. The customer journey, written down.
Events that match real actions. After launch: pause waste, keep what converts, rewrite what almost does.
Site, search, social, any live ads. Where demand already exists. Where it leaks.
Priorities and a timeline that respects that SEO and ads move on different clocks.
Usually page fixes, messaging, and one demand channel — not seven launches in a week.
Keep the loop that created conversations. Then decide the next 90 days.
Teams who have already tried a bit of everything and ended up with a website, a neglected blog, a social intern, and an ad account that nobody owns. Founders who want one conversation, not five vendors describing five different north stars.
The plan is allowed to be small. It is not allowed to be vague. If the honest answer is “just fix the website” or “just do SEO for a while,” I will say that.
FAQ
Single-channel work is fine when the rest of the system is healthy. This engagement is for when the website, search, content, and campaigns are out of sync — or you need a sequence.
This site’s paid offer is Meta ads. If search ads are the better fit, we will say so rather than force a channel that is not in scope.
Whatever maps to the goal: qualified enquiries, completed forms, useful landing-page traffic, campaign efficiency. We skip metrics that cannot change a decision.
A short note on the business, the site, and where you are already spending is enough.
