Power Digital Success Story
Challenge: Pet Conscious, a recently founded non-profit organization, couldn’t fulfill its mission of raising awareness on animal rescue and welfare. Seeking to establish brand awareness and a stronger social media presence, the company reached out to Power Digital for assistance.
Solution: Having worked with Pet Conscious’s parent company, Canna-Pet, Power Digital already had an established network of pet influencers. The agency tapped into this pool of influencers and tasked them with promoting Pet Conscious and creating high-quality content. It also reached out to additional pet influencers with between 10,000 and 50,000 followers and highly engaged audiences to gain more opportunities. After selecting influencers who best resonated with the client’s brand, Power Digital set up Facebook and Instagram accounts, drafted contracts, and briefed the influencers.
Results: Within a few months, Power Digital secured 20 content pieces for the client’s social media accounts and amassed 13,000 likes, 362 comments, and 6,900 followers.
Notable clients: Bill DeWees, Hilton, Domino’s Pizza, Wingstop, George State University

LYFE Marketing Success Story
Challenge: With extensive experience as a voiceover actor, Bill DeWees offered voice training to people looking to hone their talent. However, he was struggling to gain brand awareness and high-quality leads.
Solution: LYFE Marketing initiated the process by testing different media ads and targeting audiences of various ages and household incomes with an interest in radio and performing arts. The test analysis indicated that the single-image ads performed best, and people with expendable income are more likely to sign up for classes. Considering these factors, it concentrated its efforts on these single-image ads, focusing on improving the image and copy production.
Results: By the end of the campaign, LYFE Marketing generated 398 website leads at $1.89 cost per lead (CPL), all within $753 monthly budget. The output surpassed the client’s expectations and helped him grow his business.

Solution: To create a sense of excitement, Column Five crafted a compelling video that showcased Dropbox as a place that drives impact and builds future-focused products. The digital media company also collaborated with prominent illustrator and animator Jimmy Simpson to bring this concept to life, adding a quirky and nostalgic spin that set the video apart from typical recruitment videos.
Results: Column Five’s captivating video resulted in 275,000 views, with people watching at least 20 seconds of the video or longer. Dropbox also recorded over 3 million ad impressions at $8.63 clicks per mille (CPM) and an average view-through rate of 20.48%.

Challenge: Facing stiff industry competition, organic wellness brand Harrogate Organics Company approached Favoured to enhance its revenue and return on ad spend (ROAS) while reducing cost per acquisition (CPA).
Solution: After conducting an audit, Favoured implemented a multi-channel media strategy using the client’s top-performing platforms — Google, TikTok, and Instagram. Focusing on user experience, the digital business company optimized website pages and adjusted the user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) design, and other creative elements.

Challenge: In honor of the 150th anniversary of its iconic 501 jeans, Levi’s commissioned Droga5 to create media assets that both commemorate its history and inspire the next generation of wearers.
Solution: Diving deep into Levi’s archives and the Internet, Droga5 uncovered unique stories surrounding the jeans and their wearers. Inspired by these stories, the agency named the campaign “The Greatest Story Ever Worn.” For the purpose of the campaign, Droga5 produced short films, print and social materials, out-of-home (OOH) advertising, digital-out-of-home advertising (DOOH), radio advertising, and in-store displays.

Solution: Selecting platforms with the highest audience engagement, Ignite Social Media developed over 40 pieces of content per week, each optimized for different platforms and centered around four key pillars: charity, faith, culture, and fashion.

Challenge: NURX wanted to increase consumer adoption of its migraine care services and broaden its audience reach. Seeking to elevate brand awareness of its offering, it partnered with Accelerated Digital Media.
Solution: Based on the research, Accelerated Digital Media realized that NURX’s target buyers are also avid podcast listeners.

Digital Services Review from Brianna Porter
SmartSites impressed me from day one. They are knowledgable, kind, and most importantly keep things simple and streamlined so that even an SEO-newb like me can understand. Tiffany and Luna are my main points of contact and they are especially great! I would recommend to anyone looking for an agency to really take their website and digital presence to the next level.
At first, a survey was conducted to gather company background, product information, target markets, etc. Next, accounts were established on various Google Business platforms, social media, etc. Then SmartSites created the ads and campaigns, and we were off and running in just a few weeks.

A digital media company is a specialized marketing company that strategizes, creates, and distributes online content to promote brands and their products or services to a wide audience. The type of content it produces can range from articles and e-books to videos and podcasts and infographics and gifs.
In contrast, a traditional media company develops content that isn't dependent on online platforms. Examples include newspapers, magazines, posters, television, and radio broadcasts.
With the rise of mobile connectivity and faster internet speeds, the digital media market has experienced steady growth. In 2023, its global revenue was $627.7 billion. By 2027, it is expected to reach $848.5 billion.
As digital media is increasingly becoming the norm, brands are facing unique new challenges that require the expertise of digital media companies. These include:
Limited online visibility
Low online traffic and quality leads
Poor online customer engagement and retention
Stiff industry competition, especially with more potential competitors online
Staying relevant with fast-changing online trends and new digital platforms
Creative burnout among in-house marketing team
Difficulty translating online efforts into real-world business results
Limited resources to produce multiple types of digital content
Success story
To highlight the importance of digital media companies in addressing these significant challenges, we've selected the following case study from Marketbridge.
Challenge: When FinTech leader FIS acquired payment processing company Worldplay, it had a vision for a campaign to drive action with key accounts. Seeking to build awareness among Worldplay customers for other FIS products, it contacted Marketbridge for assistance.
Solution: With the goal of targeting senior decision-makers at 13 of FIS’s top accounts, Marketbridge developed value propositions for each account, including catchy headlines and branded creatives. Highlighting the theme of reinvention, Marketbridge demonstrated how FIS could deliver more to its customers through the Worldpay acquisition.
Results: Marketbridge's campaign delivered over 3.5 million impressions and 10,000 clicks within months, outperforming industry benchmarks.
What do digital media companies do?
Digital media companies produce, disseminate, and monetize content across various digital platforms, such as websites, social media, apps, and streaming services. They may specialize in producing digital advertising, video, audio, and written content, often leveraging data analytics and technology to engage audiences and drive revenue through ads, subscriptions, or other models.
Digital media companies' services include:
Digital media planning Studying the market to determine the brand’s target audiences, competitors, and most effective online channels to develop marketing campaigns that drive maximum brand impact
Search engine optimization (SEO) Improving a brand’s organic search engine results page (SERP) ranking through keyword research, link-building strategies, content creation, and website optimization
Email marketing Creating email campaigns, segmenting lists, personalizing messages, and leveraging email automation to nurture leads, engage customers, and promote products and services
Social media marketing Creating graphics, videos, and writeups, running ad campaigns, and managing social media profiles to promote a brand on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, X, TikTok, and LinkedIn
Content marketing Developing and distributing content (blogs, white papers, podcasts, videos, infographics, etc.) that attracts and engages target audiences and enhances brand credibility
Pay-per-click (PPC) advertising Setting up and managing paid ad campaigns on platforms like Google Ads, Microsoft Bing, Meta, and Amazon to increase traffic, conversions, and sales
Affiliate marketing Collaborating with third-party publishers, such as media outlets, influencers, bloggers, and other businesses, to market your brand and product to their audiences
Video marketing Writing scripts, recording footage, editing videos, and publishing these on platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram to engage viewers and promote brands
Online event management Planning and hosting digital events, like webinars, virtual conferences, and product launches, to draw in audiences and create interactive online experiences
Digital public relations (PR) Managing a brand’s reputation through press releases, influencer collaborations, and media relations, boosting the public’s positive perception of the brand
Reporting and analysis Monitoring and analyzing digital campaigns to report on performance metrics and return on investments (ROI) and to adjust strategies accordingly to maximize impact
In addition to these services, select digital media companies can offer marketing automation, website design and development, application development, video game development, and interactive marketing.
Success story
To illustrate how these services play out in real business situations, we’ve selected the following case study from the digital media agency Alaniz:
Challenge: The Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNi) needed Black and Latino participants for their latest research project. However, previous efforts to capture leads failed, potentially due to the long and complex process of signing up for the study.
Solution: Alaniz developed a cohesive brand identity for the entire campaign to make the brand stand out аnd draw in target audiences. Once approved, the branding was applied to the website and campaign creatives, including social media posts and out-of-home (OOH) displays.

What are the key success metrics in digital media?
The key success metrics in digital media are:
Website traffic Measures the number of people who visit a company’s website within a certain period and can be separated into organic website traffic and paid website traffic.
Social media traffic Computes the number of people who interact with a company’s social media profile through follows, likes, views, and shares within a specific period.
Engagement rate Identifies how much people interact with your content via metrics like session duration (for blogs and articles), average view duration (for videos), and number of shares, likes, and comments (for social media).
Click-through rate (CTR) Compares the number of people who see your content to those who interact via clicks. A high CTR means your audience is interested in your published content on social media or search engines.
Cost per click (CPC) Tracks the average amount you spend to get a customer to click on your content and is usually used to measure the effectiveness of paid advertisements.
Cost per lead (CPL) Calculates how much you spend to generate a lead from a type of content, platform, or campaign, helping you determine which resonate most with your audiences.
Conversion rate Determine how many people complete a desired action after seeing your content. Examples are signing up for your newsletter or buying a product.
Return on investment (ROI) Evaluates the amount of money your business earns from your digital media strategies and compares it with how much you’ve spent on them.
Because digital media is so entrenched in your marketing and branding efforts, monitor its effectiveness with key success metrics. Doing so will help you determine how far you are from reaching your goals and allow you to make informed decisions on adjusting your strategies to improve impact.
