Every year, brands spend over 1077 billion US dollars on advertising in an attempt to outshine rival companies (Statista).

It takes a lot of work and an innovative, driven approach to thrive in such an environment. That is where multi-channel marketing comes into play: it can help you get your desired results.

How Do We Create Winning Multi-Channel Campaigns?

We take the guesswork out of crafting stellar multi-channel campaigns. Let's dive into the proven strategies we use to ensure your marketing hits all the right notes.

We Start With a Deep Dive Into Audience Behaviour

Thorough research and segmentation of the target audience should be among the top priorities when developing a marketing strategy. Without it, your marketing efforts will not reach the right people and will not provide the desired results.

💡 We know how to effectively tailor your message to each of your audience segments and can help you create a fantastic campaign.

We use:

• surveys – to learn more about your audience
• research tools – to understand what your audience thinks about your competitors and their marketing efforts
• social media monitoring softwares – to simplify the process

We Tailor Channels to Your Audience

At Rhapsody, we find which areas (both digital and traditional) your target audience is most active and engaged in. Is it Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter? Does your ideal demographic watch TV or prefer to view content online? Do they spend a lot of time outside?

Marketing companies in London will get answers to all these questions to figure out which channels will reach the people your brand wants to connect with. For example, it’s pointless advertising on TikTok if your target audience does not use the app.

💡 We will make sure the channel aligns with your brand’s values. You do not want to advertise on a platform that goes against your ideals.

We Create a Unified Brand Experience

Uniform advertisements across different platforms help people connect specific messages and imagery with the brand, thus increasing recognition.

Chaotic and inconsistent advertising hinders marketing efforts, as people are unlikely to remember a product or service if the messaging is confused.

💡 We will ensure your content is consistent – from videos to print ads.

Remember that content that doesn’t align with your company's goals can be easily misinterpreted by the audience, potentially damaging your brand's reputation. Even if you’re working with a big budget, random and disjointed marketing will be ineffective.

We Track Your Campaign's Success

Without proper tracking and measurement, it is difficult to determine how successful a marketing campaign will be.

We recommend using KPIs to set specific goals and benchmarks for marketing initiatives and determine the overall success of a campaign. We can help you analyse the gathered data to measure the campaign’s effectiveness.

We Optimise for Success

We don't believe in "set it and forget it" campaigns. We take a data-driven approach that prioritises continuous testing and refinement. Here's how we ensure your marketing hits the mark:

• A/B Testing: We test different types of messaging, visuals, and CTAs to see what resonates best with your audience.
• Customer Journey Optimisation: We identify and remove any roadblocks that hinder conversions throughout the buying process.
• Embrace Iteration: We learn from successes and failures, constantly optimising your campaigns for peak performance.

Create a Multi-Channel Marketing Campaign with Rhapsody
