MARKETING CAMPAIGN?

2. Every campaign needs a proper
plan and strategy that not only sets
a strong base for execution, but also

research and articulate aims/goals
at every step. Here are the six steps
to create a perfect digital marketing
campaign plan:
While most of the businesses are
concentrating only on executing
their campaigns, they miss out the
sensitivity and attention-to-detail
involved in their planning. This leads
to a lot of confusion while executing
a campaign and affects the outcome
directly.

strategy:

Ex: Bring at least 100 sign ups through AdWords
Search Campaigns in a month.

Here are a few things that needs to be considered for
setting a tone for your content development:
• Define your tone based on your target audience – Casual,
Quirky, Corporate, Semi-Casual, etc.
• Define the list of keywords that relate to the product, service,
promotion or the campaigns. Ex: affordable marketing
campaigns, effective digital marketing, etc.
• Define usage of imagery and colors for the campaign that
goes with your brand. Ex: diversity of people in the images
used, colors that can be used for the fonts, etc.

11. Step 5
Prioritize & set the budgets for each channel.

Here are the steps to be followed for setting the
right budgets:
• Assign budgets based on the objective of the
campaign. Follow the 70+20+10 rule to start with. For
example, if your campaign objective is sales, then
assign 70% of total budgets for sales, 20% for
awareness and 10% for nurturing the prospects.
• Now that you have a number for how much you want to
spend at each stage, prioritize all the channels based
on the set goals and set a number for each of them.

13. Step 6
Plan your execution, tracking and exit strategy.

and steps for execution across all planned channels.

regular intervals to get collective analytics.

different channels based on historic data to get maximum
traction.
