Description
From Instagram across Facebook to YouTube, they all reinforce your online brand story in their own way, like an extension of your external and internal communication and as a traffic generator to your website. What’s more, social media are not about one-sided communication, it’s a round-the-clock conversation with clients, staff and partners.

Our experts can help you manage that conversation and capitalise on it. We couple social media with the efficiency of a genuine impact: following thorough analysis we set concrete goals. Afterwards, we measure the results and also include conversion, leads and sales in the story. Just think of us as your strategic sparring partner & coach, perhaps even as your conversation manager. We take you from communication and conversation towards conversion!

Description
Every client and employee is a spokesman or spokeswoman for your company, organisation or government service. 24/7 and via every available channel, and amplified by and within a fast-moving digital context. Your product is constantly evolving and may turn into a service overnight. Such is the spirit of our age and it calls for a well-defined strategy: clearly stating what and who you are. You need to set a benchmark and be consistent in the relationship with your target group, clients, staff and your competitors.

Our strategists will gladly help you work out that strategy and implement it, using a custom-tailored instead of your everyday out-of-the-box approach and based on a transparent and well-founded analysis. Contextual, targeted and accurate. The methodology varies from market research to focus groups. From the intake interview down to the smallest output, our guiding principle remains unchanged: creating impact. ‘Collaboration’ is a constant in this regard.

Dankzij de crisistool kunnen we ons als overheid beter voorbereiden op noodsituaties met een grote impact op de bevolking. We oefenen procedures in een realistische oefenomgeving in. Een absolute meerwaarde voor de noodplanning.

Collaboration

What was the objective behind your collaboration?Support in PR-related areas. Or sometimes an activation of a new product our the launch of an event.

What did you enjoy the most during your collaboration?The contact with my key account (and the team). She really listens to our 'case' and always comes up with a good idea our solution. Also the flexibility and the human and spontaneous approach make it a true joy to work together (big thanks!).

Are there any areas for improvements?It would be nice if for each campaign benchmarks are given at 'the pitch of a campaign' so that it is easier to follow up/ analyse the result of a campaign and to pitch upcoming campaigns towards the board. Now I have the feeling that some tools are missing to give the exact info/KPI's/ report of a campaign. It could also help us to get learnings for other campaigns.
