another.

Strategy simplifies
the complex, creating the
roadmap for our partner’s
success.

IT STARTS WITH RESEARCH
STRATEGY 2020 PAINTED PICTURE
From the smallest
recommendation to the largest
campaign, strategy provides the
research to make educated
decisions.

WHO + HOW + WHY
Effective campaigns are built by an
understanding:
Who is our audience?
How do they make decisions?
Why do they make those decisions?

WHO + HOW + WHY
Strategy delivers that
understanding and works side-by-
side with Accounts, Creative and
Performance to bring those
insights to life.

eROI is a maker’s agency.
Our talent, brains, hands,
experiences + surroundings
are our tools to craft digital
experiences with our partners.

The items we create matter.
We have a responsibility to create
substance over style, something that
lasts and performs, and shifts what we
previously thought possible.

CONTENT
CREATIVE SERVICES 2020 PAINTED PICTURE
Content strategy builds familiarity,
likability, and trust. Content binds
our partners and us, our strategies,
development, and design to our
audience.

CONTENT
Our audience does not experience
content separately from design, ux,
and development. We shouldn’t
create it that way either...

DEVELOPMENT
True creative Development is
powerful, an equal partner in the
creative process, with the ability
to sculpt nothing into something.

DEVELOPMENT
Our Developers turn the lights on,
make the process more intuitive
and more memorable in the precise
way we’ve dreamed.
Theirs is an art akin to cooking or painting.

DESIGN
Design is a language used to
communicate our ideas across
people and borders. We trust our
designers to tell that story and
compel a stranger to act.

DESIGN
Our Designers are conceptual
problem solvers, combining art
with strategy to push conventional
thinking and lead our industries.

Creativity is an energy. It’s a
byproduct of our culture and
grit. We just need to harness it
for good because it is contagious
and it’s in our bones.

Performance removes the
grey area behind the ‘Why’.

HOLISTIC
PERFORMANCE SERVICES 2020 PAINTED PICTURE
Performance is holistic.
Extending beyond simply the
measurement of Opens and Clicks,
Conversions and Attribution.

HOLISTIC
Optimizing not just what’s onsite,
but creating opportunity and
revenue through experience.
Utilizing technical and operational
efficiencies to our advantage.

Performance is about zeroing
in on what matters and
humanizing the results.

HUMANIZING
75% of our name is ROI
and we improve our Partners’.
Our commitment to humanize the math sets us apart from other
agencies who love numbers and can speak Excel just as well as we do.
Our reports are actionable as well as being understandable.
We throw in with Google Analytics, as a Certified Partner, but we are
platform agnostic and create results no matter the platform.

SERVICES
Performance creates +
highlights opportunity
Our integration and participation will grow from reporting and
recommendations to actively optimizing sites from the ground up.
We will be an integral part of partners’ daily dashboards, rather than
simply creating the framework for success and visualizing the results after.
Performance provides a pipeline for eROI to do inspirational and
profitable work that moves us towards our 2020 goal.

Email is still king kong.
We need to support it at a
higher level than we have.

SOFTWARE SERVICES
Our experience guides our software choices
And our partners depend on us to make decisions
that are always in their best interest. As such, we
endorse two products that offer the flexibility to
scale from zero-millions, create dynamic landing
pages on the fly, and fit into any budget. Hands
down we provide the best service and pricing
with the expertise to make any email a reality.
BlueHornet
ExactTarget

SOFTWARE PERFORMANCE
We grew up with email, it’s in our blood.
No channel is as ubiquitous and flexible and no other
channel can drive results like email.
We’ve worked in every platform and know not only
what fits our partner, but how to customize it for them.
Open ->Click ->Visitor, our team knows how to create
end-to-end understanding of our customers’ journey to
conversion and our partner’s goals.

We hope to bring others along
for the ride of their lives as we
lead the way.
