Paid Digital Advertising
Reaching the right audiences takes a thoughtful approach, a nimble strategy, and clear goals. In 2023, for more than a quarter of our association clients, that meant developing and implementing digital ads on a variety of platforms, with a focus on (but not limited to) Google and LinkedIn. This resulted in:
- Total Investment: $400,000
- Total Impressions: 31,000,000+
- Total Leads Generated: 900 (for member and sales lead generation)
What Did This Achieve? A Case Study…
As part of a yearly investment in paid digital advertising, a campaign was launched promoting attendance of a client’s annual conference. Knowing that this association has a very engaged audience across digital platforms, Kellen Digital capitalized on new methods of reaching users, including Google Performance Max ads, and leveraged other tried-and-true methods of digital advertising delivery, including LinkedIn ads.
Ads on LinkedIn directly influenced 393 registrations for the conference, which resulted in over $300,000 of revenue — constituting an indirect return-on-ad-spend (ROAS) of 30,000%. Additionally, secondary revenue in the form of new members and certification applications was directly attributable to these ads, which led to just under $20,000 of revenue — constituting a direct return-on-ad-spend (ROAS) of over 1,200%.
