What problems can digital marketing solve for a CBD company?
Many CBD companies struggle to find legitimate platforms that allow them to purchase pay-per-click (PPC) ad space. Google, Facebook, Instagram, Amazon, and other platforms each have their own rules about advertising CBD products or listing them for sale in your store. This often means you need a sophisticated strategy that utilizes search engine optimization rather than PPC to position your company as an expert on the topic, according to Google’s guidelines.
At Connective, we’re an experienced CBD digital marketing agency with over five years of proven results in the CBD marketing industry. We can strategize to incorporate E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness) SEO content into your site to help you rank higher and reach your target audience.
Digital marketing tactics
We use a comprehensive strategy to help our CBD clients reach new customers. Through a combination of SEO content, email marketing, social media marketing, and web design strategies, we can help you attract and convert new customers and retain existing ones with fresh new content.
CBD SEO
As one of the best options for a CBD company, we can begin your CBD company’s SEO strategy or improve upon an already existing one. We’ll perform keyword research, competitor analysis, and more so we can update your website to fit the most optimal SEO strategies for the CBD industry.
Content marketing
To push your website to the top of search results, creating useful and relevant content related to CBD is key. That’s why we offer content marketing; our copywriters can create helpful blog articles, service pages, and other articles related to CBD to help show Google’s algorithms that you are a reliable source and an authority site. This will push your website to the top of SERPs while also building repeat readers, netting more clients and traffic overall.
Email marketing
With so many users checking their email daily, wouldn’t it be great if you could reach them through their inboxes? With our email marketing campaigns, including drip campaigns, abandoned cart campaigns, and more, you can. By sending personal emails to masses of potential customers, you can draw in repeat sales or even recapture people who changed their mind about making a purchase.
Web design and UX
When your website has high amounts of traffic, the worst thing you could do is have a website that looks subpar and is difficult to navigate. We provide high-quality web design and UX services that will not only make your website look and feel incredible but also have a solid underlying framework and structure. This will not only boost your website’s rankings in search results, but it will also encourage visitors to interact more with your site, increasing the chances of a conversion.
Social media marketing
Social media is key to any brand’s development in this day and age. With people across all generations utilizing social media, not having a face on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, and more is actively a detriment to your business. We can help you build an online persona and transfer your brand’s identity onto social media, so you can increase your visibility and build loyal followings that will dramatically increase your website’s traffic.
Creative development
Are you in need of a rebrand or new logo? We’ve got you covered there too. Our expert team of in-house graphic designers will always be willing to assist you in brainstorming and creating any new type of media. Whether it’s a logo, marketing assets, brochures, packaging, or more, we can create something that will truly represent your brand and exceed your expectations.
PPC
Although PPC is difficult for CBD companies to utilize due to the aforementioned restrictions, many companies are starting to become more relaxed. For example, you can now market CBD topicals through Google. Although this alone may not be a proper justification for a widespread campaign, working with an agency that is able to help develop and implement a PPC campaign on a whim would be of great benefit as the digital landscape becomes more accepting of CBD.
Our digital marketing process
We follow a seven-phase process to manage CBD marketing services for our clients. Reaching your target audience can be difficult, especially in the heavily restricted CBD online marketplace. At Connective, we’ll help you make the most of your website, web store, social media platforms, and other avenues to reach a wider customer base.
Our process begins when you first contact us about our CBD marketing services. We then conduct research and develop a custom-tailored strategy for your company. After launching your marketing campaigns, we monitor and track results to fine-tune future marketing campaigns and content pieces for a higher return on investment (ROI).
Onboarding
When you reach out to us for the first time, we’ll send you a Discovery Questionnaire to learn more about your goals. During our kickoff meeting, we’ll introduce you to your project manager, account manager, marketing team leader, and other important team members.
Research
Good marketing strategies begin with research. We’ll perform keyword research, competitor analysis, website content assessments, and run analytics on your current marketing strategy to determine the best steps moving forward.
Tracking and monitoring
Before we begin implementing new plans and campaigns, we’ll first need to find out where and how it’d be best for your already existing digital marketing strategy to improve. On your website, we’ll monitor clicks, conversions, bounce rates, sales, and other key metrics to discover areas for improvement.
Reporting and analysis
We offer a custom real-time marketing management dashboard where you can see how your strategies are working across different platforms, all on a single screen. We will also compile our data into monthly reports with a professional analysis and our expert recommendations. We’ll measure your data against key performance indicators (KPIs) to suggest improvements to your digital marketing campaigns.
We mine data using several tools for our analysis, including Google Analytics, Search Console, Surfer SEO, AHREF, and other essential marketing tools.
Monthly campaign creation
We’ll build monthly campaigns for SEO content, PPC ads, social media content, and email drip campaigns for newsletters and special offers. Our content will focus on positioning your company as an industry expert for a high domain authority (DA) ranking, as well as converting customers and retaining existing ones.
Monthly campaign execution
We can schedule social media posts, blog posts, email campaigns, and more. Google and other search engines like active sites that update content frequently. We can help you manage your content schedules or handle them for you so you can focus on filling orders.
Improve and iterate
Through our monitoring and analysis month after month, we can determine which aspects of your campaigns are most successful and which need improvement. We can adapt your less successful advertising strategies to implement the winning aspects of your more successful marketing campaigns.
