The right campaign strategy can strongly impact organizational objectives and results, whether you are marketing a B2B healthcare solution to physicians, evangelizing enterprise cybersecurity, promoting B2C software, or generating internal excitement about a company rebrand. Here are some examples of my work on integrated, multi-touch campaigns.
The popularity of ChatGPT presented a perfect “newsjacking” opportunity to capitalize on a trending topic tied to scraper bots—a prevalent pain point among media and e-commerce enterprises seeking bot protection.
With help from our communications team, the CEO began building the narrative around scraping as a gateway threat with his Forbes byline published in May. He then contributed an article to information age in June about the risks of generative AI (such as ChatGPT).
Jumping ahead to August, I worked with our Head of Research to quickly write a blog post for Hacker News with a 48-hour turnaround. We fast-tracked approvals and had the article finalized within two days.
The article got 125 shares on Facebook and Twitter within the first few hours of publication! (LinkedIn has a closed API, so we couldn't track shares with our tracking system.)
It quickly got picked up by Cyber Security News, one of our target media outlets with significant reach to our ICP.
Online publishers and media outlets were our primary audience, and the webinar was our main event! Our communications team managed to secure a tech journalist from SC Media as our featured guest, and we brought in our CEO and Head of Research to create a virtual roundtable format.
The webinar was a huge hit, generating more registrations than all other 2023 webinars combined! The graph below shows the uptick in registrants for the ChatGPT webinar vs. previous webinars. (Keep in mind, webinars are a fairly new channel for this brand.)Â
After subtracting customers and employees, the webinar drove 127 enterprise leads. (Keep scrolling to see some "big fish" we reeled in!)
All ChatGPT content was promoted on social media (LinkedIn and Twitter) and amplified further with heavy participation and sharing from employees. We also designed content specifically for social, including the carousel/slideshow graphics pictured below.
Impressions: 514
Engagement Rate: 37.15%
All in all, the campaign was a major success, driving our key metrics that mattered and breaking through the noise in the marketplace—one of our marketing department's key organizational objectives. Best of all, we brought in several strong leads from enterprises within our ideal customer profile (ICP). Just look at those logos!
