A comprehensive social media strategy leads to higher engagement and greater reach
One of our clients, a casino and hotel vertical, had made several inroads within social media but was struggling to see a return. Without a cohesive vision or proper monitoring, any efforts the company made would be for nought. We worked to unify their digital marketing strategy on the social front while slowly incorporating new avenues for creating and curating content. The result was a significant increase in reach and engagement for this iconic brand.
