AdWords Campaigns That Do Not Convert

If experts are correct and more than 60 percent of budgets spent on Google AdWords don’t lead to a single conversion, then they’re clearly not using the correct strategy, messaging and performance testing.

Why SA Digital?

“A visitor who watches a product video is 85% more likely to make a purchase than if they had not.” — Internet Retailer Magazine

We work through lead generation until there is an actual conversion.

We work closely with business owners or their marketing team to enhance digital marketing campaigns by strategically crafting customer personas, developing the correct dynamic messaging, identifying trends in the buyer’s journey and testing the process through the conversion.

Another difference is we understand the value of dynamic video for your online campaign. We work with your team to strategize, develop, write, shoot and produce video of your product or service that captures attention, compels them to learn more and then converts from their search to closing with the sale or transaction.

We’re an experienced team of experts and if we need to expand we find the best person to fit onto the team. We’re not like other one-size-fits-all digital agencies where a person working on your account may or may not have specific experience to your unique set of challenges.

At the beginning of the process, we use the Business Model Canvas to learn and explore where you are in your journey, what’s needed and already begin pinpointing solutions.

We’ll map your Buyer’s Journey and strategize with your team through the stages of Acquire, Activate Retain, Revenue and Referral. We’ll also strategize how best to engage your customers through emotional triggers – how to connect with your customers and persuade them to buy your product or services.

We customize teams depending on your needs and budget. If needed, we can add whatever skillset needed to customize our commando team. And, depending on the need, we can always pull in trusted teammates we’ve worked with for years like Alexis Velasquez in graphic design or Brent Traylor for video production or Robin Jerstad behind the camera. SA Digital will work non-stop to take your product or service to the next level – you have our word.

Case Studies

“Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.”
— Thomas Edison

WellMed Charitable Foundation

Our team’s work for the Foundation has included field research, focus groups, several online videos and a massive email campaign targeting new potential corporate customers in four of America’s largest states. The multiple series email campaign during several months led potential customers to a specific landing page to sign up for periodic webinars about WCF’s expanding care-giving services and curriculum.

UIW Rosenberg School of Optometry

We’ve assisted UIWRSO through the years with focus groups, strategic messaging, website development and extensive new student acquisition videos, used online and during recruiting visits to schools across the U.S. The two most recent were for the Bowden Eye Care & Health Institute and the school’s Sports Vision Service assisting UIW’s student-athletes with hand-eye coordination and enhanced athletic performance. UIW is the only D-I school in America with this specific program.

San Antonio Shoe & Luggage Repair

When we started working with SAShoe – as they’re affectionately known in our office – they had something that resembled a “website” built by Yellow Pages. We built a new website with online videos where customers can download coupons and added a texting service where coupons are sent directly to their cell phones. The search campaign continues to drive traffic to the website. Shoe repair might be one of the oldest professions, but SAShoe is riding the digital wave with us.

Texas A&M-San Antonio

The (former) Dean of the College of Business was referred to us as the school was in danger of losing its state funding because of low enrollment and had less than three months to act. We hit the ground running and conducted focus groups, development new student acquisition messaging and videos and had a landing page where potential students could requested more information that went directly to the admissions office. Long story short – we exceeded the targeted number of new students and saved their state funding.

Financial Life Advisors

They came in as a referral and left as a case study. Our opportunity was to help them develop a new brand strategy because they were spending so much time with the wrong type of customer. So we interviewed various customers in smaller individual focus groups, developed new strategic messaging and then converted that into an animated video that explained FLA’s Unique Value Proposition in way that was more direct and easily understandable. One of the principals said months later it was remarkable how effective the video and website were at helping vet prospective clients.

Lutheran High School of San Antonio

We’ve assisted LHSSA through the years with focus groups, strategic messaging, website development, search campaign and new student acquisition videos as the school continues to grow. Our job is made easier because of the school’s dynamic staff and its continued success developing top students and student-athletes. Each campaign we design is customized for what the school wants to highlight and it continues to help attract and vet prospective students for the admissions department.

“SA Digital has been a critically important marketing partner for SA Shoe & Luggage Repair through the years. Before we started working with them we didn’t have an online presence. They built our website, developed videos, launched our online and email campaigns and now they’re developing an app that could be transformative for the company. You could say SA Digital took us from the Stone Age to the Space Age.”

Chris Von Quintus
